well, interesting to me anywayI was digging through some files today and found the paperwork from when I bought the car. I paid $16,231 for the car. Cash.As some of you may know (likely more know than care ) I've kept a spreadsheet of every time I've put gas in my Vibe. When I filled it up on 5/23/2011, that and all previous gas cost a total of $16,247. So I have paid more for gas for the car than I paid for the car itself. Also, in January 2003 when I first put gas in the car, it cost $1.339/gallon.
