Decently Priced FFL Around Roseville

Simple logic at its best

Yep, but often people don't do the math. People will spend a lot to buy a new vehicle which gets better fuel economy, but not do the math to see if it makes sense. If they pay $20k extra, that is a lot of gas that could have been paid for, then there is the higher insurance to factor in as well. The closer the fuel economy gets, the longer it takes to pay for it.

If you get 20 mpg and gas costs $3/gal (yeah, I know, but it is an easier number to use), it costs $0.15/mile in gas. At 60 mpg, it costs $0.05/mile in gas, so you save $0.10/mile. To break even just looking at gas, if the increased cost is $20k, that is 200k miles. The 60 mpg is a bit high and the $20k is likely low, but you get the idea. So does it make sense to spend more for a more fuel efficient vehicle?

People don't tend to add up all the costs. They will spend $10 in gas to save $1. If the cost of the transfer if the most important thing, then traveling will make him happy to get a lower fee, even if it really doesn't save any money, plus trying to convince people doesn't tend to work.

I’ve seen people in one of our stores come in and price shop and literally come back 3 hours later to buy a gun after they shopped 3 other stores to save $20. The time and gas and effort is mind boggling.
