That looks good, I think ;-). Essentially engines last a very long time if you change the oil regularly and don't abuse them. Use the recommended octane, nothing higher, and perhaps use a brand name of gas. 10% ethanol is OK for modern engines. My Yamaha manual says no greater than 10% ethanol.

Try this one . I have had the last three cars for over 75000 miles each. Assume 25 miles gal. Think that adds up to 9,000 gal x @1.00 = $9,000.

No (not any) engine issues.
Hope that I got the math right this time , but you better check me.
