i checked my gas budget for the Z last night. things are looking good.

The Acura is $30ish in about that same time span for my wife's longer commute. My commute in the Z is much less distance wise. I put about 350 miles on each tank and its $60+ to fill up. My work travel determines how often I have to fill up. If I just drove to and from work 5 days a week, I would fill up every 6 weeks. The reality of it is I probably fill up nearly as often as you do Kenchan

that's good.

in our household wife and i dont pay out of our allowance (per se) for daily task gas money.

also the car usage reimbursement from her company is very generous especially when the Fit gets like 35mpg highway, and regular gas.

it can definitely cover maintenance costs like materials for oil changes and air filters and such.

Nice

I reimburse myself for mileage

That's why it is good to take the Acura on my out of town trips (like the 500 miles I drove yesterday in it)

My dad has a 2008 Rav4 with 220K miles still going strong. He drives all over Texas and takes $5000 mileage reimbursement checks every 6 months or so

so I am looking for a new BT headset for driving and because the Z is a roadster, I need something really good with NC and sound clarity..

and eventually I found this:

Jawbone ERA Bluetooth Headset Midnight 738516365831 | eBay

read some reviews and i think it is a good one, and the price is good too....
