There diffrent sites ... cross-post addedEh, why post identical threads on LET/VPSBoard? At least should post link "cross-post"
I think for fuel economy a diesel is a far better idea than those ugly hybrids. For example a VW Golf TDI from 2012 does 60-75mpg, only 10s to go from 0-60 and is way better to look at ;-).
I bet you could tie a cart to him and he'd charge less than the going rate of gas2007 BMW 335i... I just sold it to my sister and bought a 2012 Prius C instead. I'm now getting 50-60mpg on my drive into work every day. A one-legged man on a bicycle can accelerate faster but I didn't buy it for that.
I guess I should also get some pics of the Prius and my wife's kid-mobile XC90
Heard you got a beemer too. Mind sharing some pics? X_XI bet you could tie a cart to him and he'd charge less than the going rate of gas

Hahaha that was an ongoing joke.
nor do I have a license
:blink:With tax credits and fuel costs, this ends up having a much lower operating cost. I did also look at the TDIs, they had higher insurance premiums, cost about $7k more for comparable features and mileage (mine had 3k miles on it).
No need for a car right now!Ok, sound like you did your research

Yah but not having a drivers license seems strangeVictoria is a small city for being a capital city. You can easily get around via public transportation, or simply walk. Where I live I have literally everything I need within a ~3 minute walk.
Here Gasoline is ~10% cheaper than diesel. Visable (paid by me) vehicle taxes are quite low. The prius itself was $20k USD, paid about $1200 in taxes on it at purchase, no yearly taxes, just tag registration ($20) so it really only comes down to fuel and basic maint for operating costs. Things like brakes last for ever because of the regenerative breaking versus a regular car.Ok, sound like you did your research
Cars are really taxed into oblivion over here (of every new car you buy almost 40% is tax). But both the prius and the TDIs (all cars that emit less than a defined amount of CO2 per km) benefit from the same tax-reductions. (only 21% VAT)
Over here the VW is about €2k cheaper to buy and since diesel is 20% cheaper than gasoline....
Weird how that works huh.
$100/yr here in WA State
That looks mighty similar to a Trek VRX I had in the 1990's...Here goes my ride.
