    it would help if you could state your daily route. and on what time.

    that car is innately fuel efficient (9-11 km/li ata sa city), so if you travel less than 250 km per week, you're looking at more or less 1,000 pesos if gas prices hold

    Our vehicle is a kia Sedona 2004 and it's a known gas guzzler-- the price we have to pay for the comfort it provides us when riding long distances especially when with the kids.

    Anyways, our daily route is from Bicutan to Amorsolo and we often use the skyway (5 days of the week). We consume P1,200-1,600 in a week. I've computed our fuel consumption, and it's 5-6km/liter gasoline.

    my daily route is from imus, cavite (near las pinas) to the fort, taguig and vice versa. 5 days a week. daan ko coastal road & edsa. i'll be experiencing traffic lang siguro during the night kasi i'll be travelling from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. so do you guys think 1K would be good for a week?

    I don't think ~24 liters of petrol per week is going to cut it with your route...

    roughly 40 km per day ata ang route ninyo, kung coastal road-edsa (you can measure your daily route through the trip meter on the odo). So it's still around 1k, but probably more. Especially kung grabe yung traffic

    mag pa full tank ka ng monday morning, then i-reset mo yung trip meter, then tingnan mo yung kilometer reading sa next pa-full tank mo. Makikita mo kung ilang liters ang naubos ng auto mo, and kung ilang km/ per week ang travelled. (makukuha mo rin ang fuel efficiency ng auto mo)

    although kung gawin mo yan ngayon, hindi realistic, kasi wala masyadong tao sa metro...

    when going to work, me and my erpats use his hi-ace and we spend at least 500 pesos a week. diesel yun kaya matipid. so that's the weekday scenario.

    during weekends, when i use my pajero, i spend more or less 2k of diesel per month. so divide it by 4 weeks, almost 500 petot a week

how much money do you spend in gas on a weekly basis?
