agreed i'm almost 23 and at 23 lol, 6th jeep, 4th xj

I commute more now than I used to. My current vehicles don't get very good mileage:
XJ - 15mpg
Scout - 10mpg
Element - 23mpg

My planned near future vehicles don't do much better:
F250 - 8mpg
S1600 - 7mpg

So I have been looking into some affordable economical cars:
Metro - 45mpg
Festiva - 35mpg
914 - 25mpg
Brat - 25mpg
X1-9 - 25mpg
245 Wagon - 25mpg
Civic - 35mpg
SL1 -35mpg
MR2 - 35mpg

Does anyone have any opinions on what I should get? I drive 1000 miles per week.

You just need a bigger engine, that's what i did.

I'm quite happy with 15mpg for an XJ, but its costing me $720 a month in gas.

Default Breckenridge this week



Just bought me a new Jeep and I'm headed up to Breckenridge Wednesday through Friday this week. Any good trails this time of year with my new stock jeep in that area?
