August 10, 201214 yr Hey guys I'm wondering which of the 2 following roads is aqtually cheaper. First of all I got a Seat Toledo 1995 and a 1.6 engine [if I got it correctly]. Road A; This road has a distance of 5.5 kilometer and has 95% a max of 50 km/h It has also like 12 stoplights, I know it's ****ed up. Travel time is 15 minutes to 25 minutes. Road B; This road has a distance of 15.1 kilomter and has 90% a max of 120 km/h. It has 3 stop lights. Travel time is 13-18 minutes max. The reason of this question is because I'm going to move from stable and I would like to know if B aqtually would become cheaper then A. A is trough the city and B is via the highway. I hope you can use English terms because there are other distance terms in America. I believe B will be much cheaper of petrol use because of mine big engine but I'm not to sure about it.

August 10, 201214 yr A, because then you can roll real slow with the window down, pumping out some sweet beats, and maybe you'll pick up some chicks.
August 10, 201214 yr I hope you can use English terms because there are other distance terms in America. Kilometres are not an English term.
August 10, 201214 yr Highway driving is almost always going to give you better fuel consumption numbers. The local route can require you to start and stop 12 times, and acceleration is what causes fuel burn, so that is definitely going to be the worse option. As long as you aren't revving the engine absurdly high to be able to keep up on the highway, it's the better option. Besides, you get to drive fast, and that's SO much more fun...
