since August, my santa fe CRDi is my daily drive and average km ko per day is 30km (back and forth na). I spend like 2K+ now in fuel expenses for 3 weeks! minsan umaabot pa nga ng 4 weeks pag mga 2 times/week di ako nakakaalis ng bahay.
my dad who has a company issue Ford Explorer EB always complains na pumunta lang daw siya ng Tarlac or Batangas eh halos ubos na ang isang full tank. now, that we bought a Starex CRDi, napakalaki tipid daw sa bulsa when he has occassional trips to nearby provinces. imagine Php 1.9k na full tank for a Starex na maximize nya in almost 2 weeks with trips to nearby golf-courses on weekends. may dvd pa at puwede pa gawing queen size bed pag nagpapahinga sa tanghali.
pero wala kaming sinabi sa Getz M/T CRDi ng brother ko, 5 weeks bago magpa-refill. and his daily trip (thrice a week) is the dreaded Ortigas to Taft Ave and back trip.
