Welcome. If you would prefer 45-50 mpg, then the Metro would be the right car. JMHO. |

Pizza Delivery MPGs will be around 40, depending on how you drive. |

Welcome to your new forum, TheFamilySign! So do the math. If you get 22 mpg at say $3.50/gal. vs Coche's 40 mpg ... http://www.fenclwebdesign.com/gas-mileage.php If you average 65 miles a day, 5 days a week, for a year you do about 17,000 miles a year. At 18,000 Miles Per Year and a Fuel Cost of $3.50 Your yearly fuel cost for your current vehicle is:..........$2863.64 Your yearly fuel cost for your new vehicle would be:...$1575.00 Your yearly fuel savings would be:....................$1288.64 Your yearly fuel savings in 5 years would be:...............$6443.20 Here's a car vs car comparison if you want to do the Geo vs a Honda: http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/Find.do?action=sbsSelect So in theory your 40 mpg Geo should pay for it's self in a year.
