Bought some gasoline. Divide the numbers. Turns out to be about 27 cents a mile, to make my 18 MPG truck move. Ouch!!!!!
Won't be doing much home repairing, if I have to go for parts.

I'd rather pay the 27 cents as opposed to carrying all my tools and supplies for a mile on foot.
$4.859 a gallon?
My truck gets 9 mpg.
As with every business, the only options include driving less, or rasing prices.

That's got to hurt.

Isn't it deductible as a business expense? If so the allowance is somewhere up around the mid 40s.

Don't you have a bicycle to get the parts??? ww
Now, that's an idea. I wonder if I can get a Chinese coolie, with a bicycle cart? I'll check the Harbor Freight web site.

9mpg???!! Get a properly designed truck instead of American shit, Or even a diesel engined one. That's the sort of mileage you get from a truck that carries 16 tons in Europe.

I have a 2008 F-150 with a V-6 and automatic trans that gets around 14, but= I rarely carry heavy loads.=20
Or eating the loss (lower profits).
$.27 X 18 = $4.86. $4.03 => $.23/mile.
Move. I paid $3.399 Saturday, though it's somewhat more expensive here.
My thoughts exactly. ($#$%'^ top poster)
Harry as usual has no clew... :(
'98 Chebby 2500 4x4 8-ft 5.3L gets 15-18 on hard roads; the '99 1500 SB
2WD does better but it's just the 5.0L, too...What goes for a PU over there generally is a toy over here...and, of course, absolute mileage numbers any more are affected on the mpg basis by the percentage of ethanol owing to the lower Btu content/unit volume.

Who said 9 mph? The op said 18 mpg. I get between 17 and 19 mpg on my 97 Nissan 4x4 pickup with a 2.4 liter 4 cyl and 5 speed tranny. Most of my driving is either going up a grade or back down. In Delaware, I'd probably get 30 mpg. :-)
Yeah, but a gallon is also ~20% larger in the UK.
9MPG in London is 7.5MPG in New York.This is all because some toolbag way back when bought 40 gallon wine casks instead of 50 gallon water barrels for the trip across the ocean to the new world. They forgot that they were wine casks, and divided by 50 when figuring out how big a gallon was.
Will you be voting against the $5.00 gasoline president we now have? The one who used executive order to prevent drilling for oil?

How do you get 27 cents a mile at $4.03 per gallon?
4.03 / 18 =3D .22388I took the price I paid, divided by the trip odometer. $30.85 / 114 = .2706
