90 Ford F-150 with a 3.3 eng. 6cyl.
And here`s something else,...I know that I can go up to 281 miles on a full tank of gas.
So here`s my calculations;
40 miles to work + 40 miles home = 80
80 miles x 5 days = 400 miles a wk.
$3.00 a gal. for gas x 18 gal. tank= $54.00 a tank (Fill-up)
And when I drove to Malta from my place I had $10.00 on me and I put it in the tank,..that gave me 1/4 (slightly over), of a tank of gas.
When I got to Malta (exit 10) from (exit 17), I was below 1/8 of a tank.No way i was making it home on that.
I only use my truck to get to work,..it`s just that I drive from Glens Falls area to Malta NY. which is about 40 miles.There`s also construction on I-87 that you are slowed down and even stopped for a brief time.Idle times comsume fuel as well,...maybe not much ,..but all the same a Running Engine is a consuming one.lolol!
And by the way I didnt get the bus driving job,..I ended up at another place driving for a window manufactuer.
PVC Industries.
I start Monday morning @ 5am to whatever time.lol!
My GF said that a place called for me to come in today @ 11am for an interview.
2 friends of mine work there,..and they start out a $12 to 13 an hr. union job,its about 7 miles from me,...So I am checking that out today.
I am all about the MONEY
Later All
