Sucks having to work a week straight, 12 hour days. Then I have plans for the weekend. The meet is getting close, and I really don't want a dead car for my meet.

Lets see, I get about 12mpg with the truck. And the van gets about 25. Although I was fighting a head wind all the way there and only got 20mpg average there, and 24.7mpg back.
