I had to push my car the last 100 yards to the gas pumps.

Last night after work I merged onto the freeway and set my cruise control for 70 mph. I didn’t have to use my brakes once until the off-ramp in Vacaville.

That’s about 9 cents cheaper than anyone else in Vacaville, or Concord.

So I just filled my tank for about $38. This is about 10 gallons, on which I will drive about 350 miles.

I love my Yaris. I am sooo glad I got this car! I’m loving the gas mileage.

PS – Neener neener
