Car Forum / Hyundai Cars / May 2007Cruise Control in 2007 Accent
Hey does anyone know if the 2007 Accent SE comes with cruise control? or if it can be easily added? I am kicking around the idea of trading in my 2003 Tib for a new Accent with all of the gas prices going up. > Hey does anyone know if the 2007 Accent SE comes with cruise control? or > if it can be easily added?

What's behind that, I wonder? L. "Leonardo" <alcamoz@centurytel.net> wrote in message > > Seems like several automakers have dropped cruise control completely > on the entry level models.

Just think about the real cost, is it worth the amount of money to trade up to a smaller car compaired to the actual amount of fuel that you would save? > Hey does anyone know if the 2007 Accent SE comes with cruise control? or > if it can be easily added?

Well it all depends on how far you drive and how much gas costs compared to how much you make etc? I have an 80 mile round trip to work 5+ days a week and am currently getting 24mpg on avg with the auto. trading up to a new car with higher highway MPG is feasible esp. if gas continues to rise. the higher gas prices go the more sense it makes, even with the additional car payment. > Just think about the real cost, is it worth the amount of money to trade > up [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >> if it can be easily added?

The numbers tell the story. 80 miles is 400 miles per week. At 24 mpg you burn about 17 gallons, or $56 a week at $3.30 a gallon. If you step up to a car that gets 35 mpg, you only need 11.4 gallons or $37 a week, thus saving $19 per week or $950 per year. Factor in tax increase, insurance increase and the rest goes to the payment. Of course you can drive even more and afford that new car even faster! |
