Default How much does it take to fill up your 2GS? 300/400/430

I'd like to take a tally now vs. the end of the year. I just heard something on the radio (yes, I still listen to fm stations, haha) about how gas is apparently supposed to reach $5.00 for a gal of prem.

Right now it takes me about $66.00 to fill up a full tank. My GS4 is going nuts and I wish she'd take some diet pills to sip a little less gas.

If gas hits $5/gal I'm going to make her my garage queen and get an is250/350.

yes its around 66-70 depending on location for a full tank now a days with 3.99-4.07
. it seems like alot but if you break it down and fill up every 1/4 or 1/2 tank it "feels" less.

The last time I filled up, prem was $3.79/gal here in GA, and while it wasn't bone dry, the low fuel light had recently come on. I paid EXACTLY $60, and the pump had cut off at like 59.59, so I squeezed as much in as I could.

It cost me $61 to fill up when the gas light went off a couple days ago. This thing is drinking fuel like a Boeing on takeoff.

invest in a beater car. thats what i end up doing. last time i filled my 3GS up it cost me about 65 bucks (that was like 3 weeks ago or so) and i typically have to fill up once a week.

i ended up buying a beater car for 500 bucks about a month ago and that takes 40 bucks to fill so i save 100 bucks a month. after 5 months the car paid for itself
