Nice! Any plans for her in the future?

 

another BOP!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!!!

Beautiful house btw!!

Where in South Florida are you?

I'm in Scumrise. ;)

 

well you succeeded in downsizing alright. How's it feel to drive a car that would fit in the backseat of your previous car?

 

Hey I would say its almost the same car without any of the body fat : ) , very nice, with all the money saved from gas you could buy some serious mods

 

hey 06 taster, I live near you in Weston

 

It was $106 every 3-4 days to fill up my tank in the sub. The payments where double what I am paying now and my insurance is less. Scion is paying me! I took everything out of Sub and put it in my box!

 

thats outrageous, $106 dollars can probably get enough for the xb to fly to the moon !, lol ok bad example but definately saving big bucks

 

^ LOLOLOL. someone do that - calculate the # of gallons (and $) it would take to take a boxy trip to the moon. l0l

 

OK, I'll go ahead and prove what a techno-**** I am and figure that out!
So - it's approx. 239,000 miles (avg.) to the moon.
At approx. 35 mpg for the Box (since there are no stoplights or traffic between here and the moon, as far as I'm aware), that would be about 6,828 gallons of gas used.
At $2.99 per gallon of regular (as per the corner station as of this morning), that would be:
$20,415.72 to drive an xB to the moon!

(This of course would not include the possible cost of an engine re-build somewhere along the line of those 239,000 miles! )

 

i dont think the xB will be able to haul that 51,210 pounds of fuel it would take to drive to the moon...hell i have a hard enough time getting in motion when i have 3 of my friends with me going to the beach...haha

 

with all the money your saving you could buy a bigger house

 

....well I calculated 41,992 lbs of fuel. So that ain't so bad.

 

C'mon, guys!
We're talking about SPACE here! The FINAL FRONTIER!
There ain't no gravity!
Fuel weighs exactly ZERO!

 

haha nice...i just calculated i think 8 pounds per gallon (thats roughly what water weighs...how many pounds per gallon was it???

 

Gas is about 6 1/4# per gallon, water is about 8 1/3#.

(***...and I hereby apologize profusely to the original poster for contributing to hijacking the living crap out of his thread!!! )

 

hmm I wonder how much to drive around the world, like from new york , to canada, small boat from alaska to russia, than russia to japan, japan to italy, than italy to london, lol, aside oil changes and tires i think the car can easily do it

 

Nice.

 

Psst, you guys are doing all this figuring for a one-way trip. How are you going to get home?

 

Home???
If you got all the way to the moon, why would you want to come home?
