He's the resident redneck... he didn't pay anything for it. He traded in 10 used F150's, none with wheels.

I went from having a company car to having to pay for my own gas, insurance, tolls etc. My Jeep gets 13mpg highway, less in traffic. I now get reimbursed the federal rate (currently 48.5 cents per mile) to use my own vehicle. The Yaris pays for itself easily via my job and I keep the Jeep for fun.

Nah, I paid dealer price. It helps when you work for them.

I did trade in a Ford truck, though, Mr. Smarty Pants.

I think the check I wrote ended up being $75X.XX. Ha ha!

Seriously, I bought it because I drive 100 miles round trip to work everyday, and the Tundra (at the time) had the worst gas mileage of all the full size pickups, except for the Titan, which is junk. Going from 18 to 35 mpg is pretty cool. Now I have much more redneck money each month to pour into guns, NASCAR collectibles, and my local Republican party.
