What percetage of take home pay do you spend to fill you cars tank

Recommended Posts

The point of the poll is to determine the percentage cost of ONE tank of fuel compared to ONE weeks NETT pay



I pay 11% of my take home pay to fill my car with petrol (gasoline)

Oh and State your Contry of purchase
Australia

if you're not sure

take the cost to fill your tank (e,g. $50)
divide it by the amount you take home in a weeks pay (e.g. $500)
then multiply the answer by 100
50/500 = 0.10 x 100 = 10%

I'm fortunate enough to only live 2 miles from work. So gas isn't too big of an issue for me...except for right now in the winter having to heat up my car or else it'll make funny noises.

that has nothing to do with the poll.
How much does it cost to fill your tank.
I dont care if the tank last 6 months. What's the %age cost to fill it up of your weekly pay

I would think it would have an effect. I mean if I used more gas then the amount I would have to put in would increase therefore I would spend more and the percentage of my pay that I spend on gas would increase.

Or is my lack of sleep totally screwing up how I'm interpreting your question?

I dont know if it's lack of sleep, but it's how much fuel your tank holds that determines the cost to fill it up.
a FULL tank of fuel ,
Why is that so hard for you to comprehend:D:D:D

your tank holds 45 litres and it's $1.50 per litre 45 x $1.50 = $67.50 how hard is that:S

I think I was reading it as how much you SPEND on gas. Meaning if you have to fill it up 3x a week that's gonna be a much larger percentage than just the cost of filling it up once (which is what I think you're asking now).

Am I starting to get on the right track? And can you see where the confusion came in on my end?

You can't blame her for being confused.
After all, there is a huge difference between percetage (sic) and pertage. :P

You guys (americans) are the lucky ones. Here in Belgium and probably Europe, diesel prices just went up again. We pay 1.2€/liter that's around 6,5$/gallon. If you have to fill your tank with regular fuel you're totally f*cked it's like 8,5$/gallon.
And analysts here say that prices might double in the next 10 years.
So now you also know why we tend to drive such small...euh... pussy cars ;)

you're missing the point of the poll
The actual cost of fuel is irrelivant it's how much does it take away from your weekly pay that i am looking for.

you can pay $10 per litre, but if you earn $5000 per week it's only a small fraction of your pay.

That's why I want the %age.

he is asking. How much right now would it cost for you to go to the gas station with aqn empty tank and fill it up to the top.

Not how much you spend each week, nor how much it cost last week or will cost next week.

I don't fill it up to the top cause don't have enough money, that is why I have to go back more than once a week

if I go back every other day it takes less money - so I'm saving on gas, right?

that si still not the question being asked.

The question, is how much does/would it cost?

In other words, just to make it simple for those who can understand the question....

How many gallons does your tank take to fill and how much is it per gallon?

Simple enough yet?
