I'm about the same. It costs me about $20-$25 to fill my tank up once a week. I would say at most I spend like $120 a month, depending on how low i let it get.

$200/month is actually about what I do. I fill up for about $30 every 4 days.

Well i live 23 miles away from my Job... So thats 46 miles a day X 4 times a week.
So ive estimated about $100 a month out of that is for work.
Im about $33 to fill.. which isnt bad.

I used to put in about $80 every fill, now it's like $40 and that lasts me about 3 weeks. Both my cars are large GMs (Buick Roadmaster wagon is my daily). Make that cost the about the same except adjust for 93 octane if I'm driving my Imp SS just reduce it to 2 weeks or less.

My SS averages 8 for most of my driving. More so than the cost of gas I'm concerned about how long my 295/30/20's in the rear will last. I can't drive without peeling out or chirping shifts. Still worth every damn penny though.

When I'm towing my camaro the truck probably gets about 10mpg and thats about a 70 mile roundtrip. And then the camaro probably gets about 7mpg because it just mostly gos down the dragstrip.

I usually go through 3-3.5 tanks of gas a week. Most of it is for work. It was killing me when gas was expensive. I'm loving it right now @ 25 per fill. It used to be close to 40.

i was spending about 175-200 a month when gas was expensive ie $2.60+..Sucks being in the army i don't even live that far from base but i end up driving back and forth atleast 2-3 times a day for pt, work, lunch, and any other running they make us do..i feel bad for my parents my dad drives 50 miles each way to work 5 times a week and my mom about 25 miles each way it wouldn't be so bad but they drive in opposite directions so no car pooling options. They spend usually between 250-400 a month
the G35 was killing me premium gas with a 20 gallon tank so 50-65 to fil up. Trips were great cuz it got great gas mileage 27-31 on I95 but around town i got horrible mileage.
