Test Mileage Per Gallon for your car

A half year ago, when the gas prices reached $3 dollars per gallon, people complained about the high price and wished that the Bush Government would hear their voices to reduce the price.

Now when I drive passing by the gas station everyday, the price per gallon has reached a historical high point from $3.60 to $3.79 to $4.00. Nobody complains about it anymore because we know the high price phenomenon is not going to end. All we can do is to accept it, spend less money on groceries, and drive less. People start to think about an alternative way to save money on gas such as selling their high gas-consummed car and buy a motorcycle. Due to the high gas prices, Japan-made cars such as Honda and Toyota have become the hottest item in the market for new or used-car buyers. Peope who want to buy a new car put hybrid cars as their first priority in their shopping list.

Here is a helpful link that is provided by the United States Department of Energy for you to calculate gas mileage per gallon for your car. http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/sbs.htm

For instance, I'm driving a 2005 Manual Chrysler PT-Cruiser. My boyfriend, Mike, is driving a 2008 Honda Fit. I compair these two cars side by side through the above website.

The result comes out to be:

Me: 19(city) 26(Hwy)
Mike: 27(city) 34(Hwy)

My annual Air Pollution Score in Co2 is 8.2 per ton and Mike is 6.1, which means I pollute more Co2 to the earth than Mike does.

Hey I'm really unhappy for the result of my car, and I envy Mike to have a better gas car. I might go back to riding my bike so I won't pollute the earth so much.
