Make a smart car-buying decision
Choosing an affordable new or used car is about more than the sticker price and monthly payment. It’s about the total cost of ownership, and fuel economy is part of that. If you have a vehicle in mind, compare it to your current ride to estimate what you may save at the pump. All you need to enter is the combined MPG for each vehicle, your annual mileage and the price of gas. Savings add up quickly over time, so if you’re running up the miles on your daily commute, the school run or road trips, a car with a higher MPG may play into your car-buying decision.
