Just curious...

[kyle's srt10]

Just wondering how many of us here use these trucks for a daily driver? How big is the gas bill

Daily Driver

Gas....About 10.5 miles per gallon, so a $60.00 tank of gas lasts me about two weeks, sometimes three.

What!!! Gas!!!!!! My SRT(daily driver) gets filled once a week, $100...actually it stops at $75 then I switch to another card for the remainder. My wifes Denali gets filled once a week,$65ish. Seems like alot considering I only put 4200 miles on my SRT since November...I think it has something to do with the fact that my tires will not make it to 5000 miles...

I've been at $80+ per week with a little downtime recently considering I lobbed a couple of wheels off. My commute makes up two of my favorite parts of the day.
