Looking at anytime between now and end of summer (probably closer to that) before trading it off. And don't hate - the bonneville is exactly what I was looking for in a school car. And gas mileage wasn't even that bad in my friends. On our way to mobridge (25 miles away) we got an average of 23 mpg. That road is very hilly too.

My Honda got ~40mpg and never had to see a mechanic. So your backwoods "mechanics" would rarely have to see it.

23mpg in todays standards is not that good anymore.

23 mpg is fine for what I need - it usually doesn't go on long trips. Just to school and work, which are all within 4 miles.

. I haven't necessarily driven it as casually as i did previously. I used to keep the car in 3rd when cruising through town ~1200rpms. Now I'll still cruise in 3rd between ~2500/3000 rpm and low 4th at ~1100 again. It's too much fun to keep it in third and hear the car ready to pounce when someone tries to cut you off. I could still get mid 20s out of it by driving more conservatively. |

Until you realize that 80% (or more) of your driving is sitting in morning/afternoon rush hour.
