When has your Fiero saved you MONEY????
« on: May 16, 2021, 07:38:54 pm »

Wife and I were visiting SC State Parks this weekend when we stopped at a Thrift Store.  Beautiful table, chest, shelf, and quilt display case -- although its original purpose was probably not to display quilts.  We couldn't buy them though, cuz they wouldn't fit in the Fiero.  8)

Someone mentioned the benefit of a luggage rack.

I take mine to estate sales all the time, keeps me from getting too much or too big of an item.  But there is the risk of missing out on something good.

Mine saves me money every time I drive it.  My truck is getting about 14 mpg.  Even with current problems, I'm getting 18 mpg on the Fiero. 

Also, when I go out to eat, I only have to pay for one other, not the whole clan.

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

That's my problem.  I drove the G30, and we ate out.  $71 per person.  No gold, either.  For that kind of money, I thought I'd get a full-size dinner glass for my drink.  Nope.  Child cups.  I had to get 9 refills.
