Which car is cheaper to drive, accounting for mpg and gas prices?
Ok so my ford excursion is diesel and gets 14.5 mpg and diesel prices cost around $2.91. While my Honda Odyssey is gas and gets 21 mpg and gas prices are around $3.24. If it matters the excursion has a 44 gallon tank and the oddysey has a 20 gallon tank.
The Ford is costing you 20.07 per mile.
The Honda is costing you 15.43 per mile.
Tank size is irrelevant.
Cost per mile:
$2.91/14.5=$.20
$3.24/21=$.154
Size if tank is totally irrelevant!
The dodge costs about 5 cents per mile to drive, the honda runs aorund 6.5 cents.so they are pretty close but the honda is slightly cheaper.

- Should I sell my car and get a cheaper one? I currently own a 2014 Ford Mustang valued at roughly $9670 with 47,000 miles on the odometer. I recently accepted a job that will require I commute 2 hours a day or 18,400 miles per year. I'm currently looking to buy a used car for $1500 or less so that I can save up for a better car in a year or two. Should I sell my mustang?
- Is it cheaper to buy a car that needs work? Read more? I want either a 1967 chevy impala or a 1972 ford pick up. Would it be cheaper to buy a car that needs some work or a car that doesn't need any work? My moms friend is a mechanic and he would do work for me cheaper than if i went to a regular mechanic and got work done.
