COST TO OPERATE A PORSCHE

We were driving by a car lot today when Phil, my ever alert car-appreciator, spied a Porsche Cayenne.



"We should buy that," he said.

"What kind of gas mileage does it get," I asked.

"Fifty-nine?"

"Fifty-nine miles per gallon!?"

"Fifty-nine dollars per mile."

After the snorting there was some sighing and shaking of the heads and then we drove on down the street to look at bicycles--with baskets attached--and sidecars.

But the car and park it in the garage with the chairs. No need for gasoline then.

My husband has been teaching me that, even the low gas milers might have great gas milage you still need to look at the inital cost of the car to really see what your paying per mile.
