- 2023 Mach-E
I have to first be honest enough to say that I would drive the Mach-E daily regardless of the mathematics in comparison.
Or put another way, the fuel co$t per mile of each of my vehicles is not the determing factor for which one gets pulled out of the barn each morning.
Having said that, if either fuel (gas/electricity) increased or decreased, I don't think the cost variance would be enough to offset the larger personal economics at play. (for me anyway)
Acquisition cost and depreciation cost are the elephant in my room for me. 100,000 miles of FREE fuel wouldn't cover those.
So the fact I'm smitten with the Mach-E isn't whether it cost me $25 more or $25 less in fuel per month than my other vehicles.
However, the subject is valid.
And I do believe my Mach-E in Texas saves me fuel dollars monthly. Probably enough to cover the cost of a Taco supper for me and my 9 grandkids?
