my family has 2 cars. i commute?

Theresia Fashaw: I would just drive the one that gives you the best gas mileage. That will probably save you money in the long run.

Georgina Natal: You're looking at 370 miles a week. Figure $3/gallon gas:25 mpg = $44.40 per week30 mpg = $37.00 per week35 mpg = $31.71 per week40 mpg= $27.75 per weekMileage differences really do not add up to a whole lot of money until you get to the extremes.50 weeks of commuting = 18,500 miles per year. New cars, given reasonably regular oil changes, will easily last 185,000 miles, or ten years of your work commute. Tire changes every three years. Wear and tear is not enough to worry about. (I'm 63... "new" cars are anything built post 1990.)...Show more
