However, if I had to choose a side, I would say I'm closer to the guy who drives speed limit. Sure I go over every once and a while, but I pay for my own gas. So anything above 70 and my gas mileage drops from 20 to 16 like that. If I go 62 mph I get about 22 mpg in the 4Runner, which monthly saves me about $10. Which is alot to someone who only makes $15 an hour. Acceleration= crappy gas mileage.

I'm not the guy you see in an empty parking doing J-turns and drifting. I'm the guy driving on a curvy mountain road at a safe speed while still having a little fun.
Who makes $15/hour at 16?

Lol. I wish I was making $15/hour at 16. I got ripped off.
