    I just got a econo box to help save on fuel cost.
    Seems that having 2 wranglers in the drive does cause fuel cost anxiety. So the little mazda will help with keeping the jeeps on the trail.
    Besides that, planning trips seems to include staying out there for a while and not running for home as much

            i just checked out the gas prices for cali and the average is about 4.00 a gallon, here it is 1.27 a litre!! so im looking at an extra 15 dollars to fill!! and i live in alberta!! thats just crazy!!:angry: and its all do to our government, if we would just build some refineries then we would be fine. the last 2 refineries we had up here burnt down like 10 years ago! sorry if i sound a little mad about this. but we pull the oil out of the ground and then send it down to the states and then buy it back... now does that make sence to anyone??

              Makes as much sense as thr States sending diesel offshore - then selling what's left to us here at $5.20 a gallon.

              Damn fuel for the F350 is starting to get into the "good cigar per gallon" range

                      I've only been in the Jeep thing for a year now, honestly if I'd had really paid attention and listened to that little voice, I would not have bought it. But now that I have it, it will take $7 a gallon before it sits in the garage, unfortunately that probably isnt but a year away. Im just happy its not my DD!!

                        I thought Alaska sent oil this way, not Canada.

                                Same here. The jeep doesn't get THAT bad gas mileage. I think I'm doing about 14mpg. I'd guess that's about average for any SUV.
