Keep the truck and do what I did...pick up a used gas sipper and keep the truck in the garage! I picked up an 01 Bug that gets 35 MPG for under $7k... I get to use the truck when I want and the gas sipper when I need.

Bought an 01 galant, gets 28mpg for 2K. Still have the beast to drive when I want to. The car saves me $200 a month, and I only drive it to work, then park it and get in the Titan.

Keep the Titan and get one of these as your daily driver: (see images below)

Suzuki DRZ 400S. It gets 45-50 M.P.G. and it's 100% street-legal. fun too.

ive seriously considered doin this...got a YZ250F that i dont even really ride off road anymore. but its a pretty good trip to school for me, and i dont like the idea of driving a motorcycle on major roadways (i know, im a pansy).


but for $900 a month in gas alone??? i definately wouldnt blame you for trading it in.

Damn, I have a bunch of friends that do 50-75 round trip but 156!!!! That is insane. They better be paying you mucho dinero!

Like others, I say to just get a second car that gets good gas mileage for that commute. If I had a longer commute I would get a car with better gas mileage myself. I keep buying cars with horrible MPG though. Then again, those are the fun ones!

Why is your commute so darn long? What do you do?...sorry so nosey, I just can't imagine having a 2.5 hr commute! I just broke the 6 figure mark this year...they STILL couldn't get me to drive that far to work! Bless you! lol
