1 Environmental Science Lab: Buying a Car. People make vehicle choices every day. The following lab and presentation will help you understand some of the complex dynamics of buying a car and the choices and compromises made every day in choosing a vehicle to drive. If you can, I would encourage you to testdrive some your vehicle choices at the local dealership. (It s a cheap date and can be a lot of fun.) Some sites to help you find what you need: PART I: The Commuter. You commute 45 minutes to work each day, a distance of 35 miles one way. Over the course of one year you will drive the car 18,000 miles. Find a car that has high gas mileage, is comfortable and best fits your driving style. You may not spend more than $25,000. Which one would you buy and Why? If gasoline will cost $3.90 a gallon, how much will it cost to run your car for the year given the mileage listed in the situation?

2 PART II: The Soccer Mom You have three children ages 6, 10 and 17. Between dropping the kids off at school, shopping, letting your teenage daughter drive, and summer vacation trips, you will drive the car 12,000 miles. Find a vehicle that has good gas mileage, is comfortable and best fits your driving style. You may not spend more than $30,000. What would you buy and Why? If gasoline will cost $4.50 a gallon, how much will it cost to run your car for the year, given the mileage listed in the Situation?

3 PART III: Your Life. Take at good hard look at your current life. What do you need in a vehicle? How many miles would you drive in a year? Do you commute? What would you use the vehicle for? Find a vehicle that best fits you re driving style and does what you want it to do. You may not spend more than $20,000. What would you buy and why? If gasoline will cost $5.10 a gallon, how much will it cost to run your car for the year, given the mileage listed in the situation?

4 Part IV: The Class Presentation You will present your findings and your choice of vehicles to the class using a power point presentation. In your presentation, you must tell us the type of vehicle you chose for each situation, their MPG, the cost to operate and how you reached your decision. You will be judged and graded by your peers on your reasoning and presentation. Online Classes turn in their labs by or dropbox and may present their finding in the discussion section for this unit.

5 Appendix: Finding Cost of Fuel for a year using MPG The normal range for fuel cost for an average car is somewhere between $1000-$6000. Even a high MPG car will run over $500 a year depending on gas price. Here are some correct examples: Ex. 1) If you drive a car that gets 23 miles to the gallon and you drive 18,000 miles in one year, what would be the cost in gas per year if the average cost of gas is $3.50 per gallon? 18,000 miles / 23 mpg = gallons of gas used in one year. At $3.50 per gallon: gallons x $3.50 per gallon = $2, A year supply of gas for this car cost $2, Ex. 2) If you drive a hybrid that gets 55 mpg and in one year drive 15,000 miles, what is the cost per year if gas is $4.50 a gallon. 15,000 miles / 55 MPG = gallons gallons x $4.50 per gallon = $ A year supply of gas for this car cost $ Ex. 3) If you drive an SUV that get 14 mpg the same distance of 15,000 miles a year when gas is $5.00 per gallon then the numbers are this: 15,000 miles / 14 MPG = gallons of gasoline gallons x $5.00 per gallon = $ A year supply of gas for this SUV cost $
