I personally would not purchase an extended warranty on a Nisan product, however, even if you did, you are talking $3,215 in current expense. A $300 a month lease is $3,600 a year, or $14,400 over the next four years you own the car. Am I missing something?

TromboneAl said:Has anyone done a plot of price of a barrel of oil vs. average price at the pump? One's impression is that the pump price tracks the oil price on the way up, but lags on the way down. I wonder if that's true.
I don't know if it's true or not, but Hawaii passed a gas price-cap law based strictly on that paranoia concern.TromboneAl said:Has anyone done a plot of price of a barrel of oil vs. average price at the pump?
