I sold my 2007 Sahara Unlimited when gas skyrocketed,bought an econo -box & a used 4x4 non-Jeep.That's what knee-jerk panic does.Now I have the 2010 Unlimited,& life is the way it should be.When gas creeps up,& you start worrying,do this;take the total miles per year you drive;Divide by your mpg; multiply by $ per gal.Thats your yearly fuel cost.divide by 12=monthly cost,;Now figure the cost of another car-payments,insurance,registration.Figure your fuel cost savings,then subtract all the related costs.Probably little or no savings.Remember,$1,000 more in fuel a year is about $2.74 a day!
