Anyone want to play a game?
Alright since you all don’t wanna play along.
Numbers rounded up to nearest penny or whole number.
in 2019, driving the same vehicle with an average gas price according to all my receipts adding up to 1.269 per gallon I spent 2,452.4 on gas to drive to work 116 miles a day. Using a total of 1934 gallons of gas.
for 2021, same exact vehicle, same average mpg, but I spent 2,026.13 on gas using 533 gallons of gas.
This translates to a savings of 1399 gallons of gas but only saved 427.27 on costs. Or 35.61 dollars a month....
Granted, if I’d still be driving that distance, the amount I’d paid would have been astronomical. But basically, the job move saved me nothing on gas, albeit the time savings makes it worth it.
