The RX7 is for weekends though when I actually ENJOY driving and with the money I save throughout the week, I can afford the $4.20/gal for 93 octane for the 7. I would never get rid of an rx7 because of gas prices, just drive it less.

You make very good point. It is getting to the point where something needs to be done. Right now I'm making the equivalent amount of money as I did 3 years ago if you take into consideration the inflation due to the price increase of crude oil... I may find myself driving something I swore I would never drive…

Oh well.

16mpg is a little worst then what I'm getting in my 99 Wrangler. I'm debating the idea of a V8 Swap to increase my mpg. How is she getting 16? the GC should be getting better then my Wrangler.
