So I got a new job a couple weeks ago. Got my first check yesterday and I am going to be able to save up for it quick so i'm wondering would a 3sgte swap still be decent on gas? I'll be driving an average of 35 miles a day but want something more fun to drive.

that is pretty much that one thing why i havent done the 3s yet, stinkin inflating gas prices. We got the highest in the whole nation, if I was bankin' more dough then I'd have no problem. My commute to work is about 25miles and its all mountain/beach area driving so there is NO way my foot is gonna go easy laugh.gif

I don't normally drive fast, but when I do its on a curvy section of this island

yeah another 25 more and im at Waikiki beach tongue.gif I used to hold a cruise once a year I liked to call the Hawaii 500 laugh.gif but that was when I was Pres. rolleyes.gif but yeah $4.38 is killing me frown.gif

anywho yeah if you got some extra changes every paycheck to feed your needs with the 3s the sure.

But you gotta also think what do you really mean by "worth it"
