Default Gas Budgets

So how much do you guys spend on gas every year on your JK?
I drive around 100 miles a week mostly city and I usually spend around 40-50 bucks every other week for a full tank on a 6 speed, with 33 MT's no lift and 3.21 gears.
So my gas bill is around $1400
With my truck I used to need 30 gallons a fill up and spent around 60-70 bucks a fill up every other week.

My 3 year anniversary is 2 weeks away, so assume 3 years with 54K miles, averaging 20 mpg's at $2.65 a gallon that comes out to an average of $2385 per year.

$80-$100 a week , not counting vacations, sooo, I'm guessing in the $4500-$5500+ range for the year.
