An interesting way to view gasoline prices. Playing with numbers, if your commute is 10 miles each way, and you get 15 miles per gallon of consumption with your SUV for stop and go city driving, your Monday to Friday commute will cost you 6.67 gallons of gasoline. According to the chart, on an average salary, this consumption amounts to about 73 minutes of your salary, or about 3.0% of pre-tax earnings. This is before maintenance and depreciation of your vehicle.
