With gas, insurance, maintenance, detailing, etc, all combined?
I know it all varies but I'm curious as to how much depending on age, and type of car people drive.

Damn has this thread been done to death? Must be.
Anyway its 2014 now, reupping lol. -
Around $200 - 95 Impala SS. Unleaded gas and because its a older car, the insurance is cheap af
-
about $350, most of it is gas
-
$60 per week for gas. I drive 15 miles to work and 15 miles back home.
It's cold right now so I don't wash it but once a month so about $10 a month in the winter. $10 a week in the summer.
So around $280 a month depending on the season.
-
Looks like I'm averaging around $215 for gas every month
-
Man I get sick thinking about it....
-
Not bad at all to me. I'd be happy if I could pay that little in the future. Since I got my licence real late and never drove much, top it off with accidents and whatnot, my insurance is ridiculous. By the time I get my first car though, my insurance would've gone back down, but still, especially with the car that I wanna get... ? , I would easily double whatever you guys are paying now most likely, if not more.

I don't see how most are paying so little with insurance+gas+detailing
Mine=
$110 (full coverage+ insurance)
$280 (premium gas)
$20 (detailing supplies)
so thats a little over $400 and thats not even including the car note.......I should go run this thing into a wall and use the insurance money and pay cash for a car lol. -

You pay little in my mind. Insurance alone runs some people 500-600 per month.
-
103 for insurance
365 for car payments
150 on gas
618$ -
I get free detailing all i gotta do is have my cousin pick the car up and take it to the dealership.
its good to know people on the inside -
Would you pay $600 per month on car insurance if you were to get a free car paid for that's 2012? Mint condition, low on gas.
Can't say what car might make it easier, but this car cost 18,000 brand new. If I do the math, I woulda paid this car off in 3 yrs from insurance alone, still free car is a free car. -
Are you asking id paying 600$ a month for insurance good?
-
Yes, if someone gave you a brand new 2012 honda civic paid for lol, no car payment to worry about. This is not a random made up question, I'm going thru some thing where this might actually happen. I never planned on driving or buying a car for a long time but the free car and new job is making me think although my insurance is ridiculous.
-
I'm currently saving on the side for my future classic audi, but like i said, ? happened, and free car may be on my way but my driving record from accident and me being new driver at the same time my insurance is nuts.
-
Wow.
600 a MONTH? I Pay about 103$ a month.
something aint right here.
Where did you get your insurance quote from? -
How long u been driving tho? I've never paid insurance or owned a car before. I'm 26 yrs old now and I had my G licence for only 2 yrs.
-
I don't know how much of this affects but I know to a certain extent, I'm a young driver as in I just started. I live in a good area now where insurance is high due to highly concentrated area with access to everything, car is brand new, plus the car is on lease(will be paid for) plus I had 2 accidents in a yr, that gives me 6 yrs for that to go away as well. But if I start paying for it now, it will come down to half within next 3 yrs.
-
I been driving for 4 years and just sold and bought a car last week, I only had 1 fender ? . I suggest you get a quote from progressive. They have some reasonable prices.
-
Will do, I I doubt I can get it lower tho. U didn't answer my question, in my situation, would u pay this amount if car was free?
-
Ohhhh I completely forgot to say, insurance is high in canada, esp toronto, Ontario. And I'm in the heart of the city. Forgot this is American site.

There is no way I'd pay 600 a month for insurance for a civic, somethings not right op. there are guys on the other car site im on that live in Canada, they have Mustang Cobras/GT500s and dont pay anywhere near that.
