Gas is pretty bad but its not like it's to the point where THAT should solely determine if someone gets a car.

I drive a gas chugging car that I drive about 30 miles a day. (20 miles for work and 10 miles if I feel like doing anything). It costs 50 dollars to fill a tank up and gets me about a week and a half to two weeks. I work at least 32 hours a week so I've made up my whole 1.5 - 2 weeks worth of gas just by working 6.5~ hrs or so. Doesn't seem tobad to me.
