Okay. Serious Thoughts On EcoBoost Towing 9.5K

If you're driving a lot, you can't just go out and buy some $3K-$5K jalopy. You need a RELIABLE car and reliable cars don't sell for $3K-$5K. That means payment.

I did a lot of calculating at one point, and I could not come out ahead of the game buying a small car to drive instead of my 1/2 ton Chevy. Break-even would require a car that got double the gas mileage of my truck, 32-40MPG depending on the season.

There are no cars I can fit in that get that kind of fuel economy.
