Let's see, Arkansas only gives you tags for 20 dollars provided you show that you paid your revenuer the taxes on the vehicle and own it either free and clear or with the proper lienholder. Very simple to do. And dont forget the insurance.There is no smog or expensive inspection requirements and we dont feed a fleet of helicopters taking crashers to trauma. Life is very straight forward here in this part of the USA. Our old car did 22 miles to gallon week in and week out. At 3.10 a gallon is about 19 gallons burned for about 59 dollars roughly each week for 420 miles.The new car gets 32 miles to the gallon for a total of about 40 dollars for a savings of 19 dollars a week in gasoline expenses. There is a realized total monthly savings of about 76 dollars.When applied to our new car payment the gas savings reduces our montly bill to less than 100 dollars including interest and our gas budget total for the month is reduced accordingly.In the near future we expect to reduce the necessary mileage for all needs including commute to less than 150 miles a week.Keep in mind we have another car free and clear, that one was filled up approx 2 months ago and still carries 80% of it's tank remaining. We only keep it in case the one goes down for some reason. We dont like to be a one vehicle family; too stressful.Bottom line the old car carried a commute cost over 12 months that was pretty high, but when we junked it and got a newer replacment our total costs actually fell for the year. This is one situation where we are enjoying lower costs against this time last year.In trucking there was no commute or associated problems. Just put yourself behind the wheel when it's time to put away 600 miles for the day. And plan it so you are either napping during the area's evening rush or eating meal during the morning one.
