My old car averaged 22 miles per gallon. In contrast, my new vehicle averages 36 m.p.g. The clunker that I suffered with for so long needed a tune-up every year; however, my new car is guaranteed not to need a tune-up for at least 100,000 miles. Finally, I’m saving a dime each time I buy a gallon of gas, for my old car needed mid-grade gas whereas my new one burnsregular.
