发帖数: 16778 | 1 Last week, I rented a car and surprisedly found its gas mileage is two times
as high as my old 2000 camry.
My old 2000 camry's gas mileage is about 18 miles per gallon at local/city.
Is it worth buying a new car?
I don't need an extra car now. So how to make such decision?
What is your car's gas mileage? |

发帖数: 16778 | 4 My manual say its gas mileage can reach 23 mpg for a new 2000 camry.
I am interested in tune-up. May I ask what maintenence I should do?
I have changed oil last week. Also I added z-max fuel economy and oil
economy into it.
What else should I do for the tune up?

发帖数: 16778 | 5 Yes, the low gas mileage makes me really worried.
but since I bought it in 2009, it hasn't enter the auto shop for once.
To me, it seems to be able to run longer. Now its mileage is about 130K
miles.
It is still young, right?

发帖数: 16778 | 11 I know this. The question is
How to calculate the benefit and loss if we buy a new car and trade in an
old car?
For example, if the new car is too expensive, even though it saves some
gasoline, it won't save you much more than your old car which eats
your gasoline.

What is your old car's mileage? more than 200k miles?
Mine is 130K miles. So I don't know if it is good for me to trade it in.

Within five years, I only drove it 30k miles.
It means it would take me another ten years to drove it to 200k miles.

发帖数: 16778 | 22 that's my actual miles. I think a lot of people here run about 6000 miles
per year like me. How many miles have you driven?
My life is quite simple.
If I am not in my office, I am at home.
If I am not at my home, I am on the way between my office and my home.
Do you use your own car for long distance frequently?
For long distance driving, I eithor rented a car or took a flight instead.
In my whole lives, there are only three times of driving long distance with
my own car.
I singly drove from CA to NYC within four days.
I drove from NYC to IN within two days.
I drove from IN to TX within one day.

老车用来上班买菜不挺好么，
你的老车18mpg,租车就算36mpg也是highway吧，要么就是省油的小车
话说从高MPG的车，换到低MPG的车，才会心疼油钱。
