So, if i am figuring this right, you have spent around $72,400 on gas !!! I get 10 mpg with mine, so 181,000 divided by 10 = 18,100, x $4.00 a gal = $72,400 :jawdrop: :jawdrop:

:notworthy:

You have set more than one record !!! LOL :cheers:

Well that's a lot of miles. If you we driving something mid-size say Impala or Camry or you'd still be looking at $30k+
even Prius at 40 mpg would set you back $18k+
Still with later even with gas money it would be like having free car, 0 miles on PW and $30K in savings.
Like they say if yo have to ask you can't afford it.

This is the first time I've ever come across a PW on the trail without it being planned.

John said his '05 PW has "well over 200K" on it, and it currently has the SERV $X$ (dollar signs intentional) light lit, and he's had repeated problems with the front sway bar and locker plugs. It's been used as a work and hunting truck since he bought it new.

He's not a member of any forums.
