Weight reduction experiment
stock weight = 26.8 - 27.2 mpg = avg 27mpg
50.4 lb reduction = 27.2 - 27.7 mpg = 27.45mpg
average increase in mileage = 0.45mpg
assuming 10,000 miles/year @ 27.0mpg = 370.37 gallons
assuming 10,000 miles/year @ 27.45mpg = 360.30 gallons
@ $3.00 gallon = $30.21 a year saved (or per 10,000 miles)
assuming my car lasts another 100,000 miles = $302.10 saved
what else can I do to make my car lighter? lol
