exactly my 'dilemna' if you want to call it that.
work from home 100% now - short trips here and there with the 2021 RDX is a given...i gotta eat. but if i hunker down, i can probably stretch out a full tank for 2 weeks....65L tank, premium gas...easily $120-$140 per fill.
The RDX can run on regular 89 but with sluggish power delivery -no thanks.
BUT - no car payments and maintenance is NIL except for oil changes twice a year.
Once the feds eliminate the need to get tested going back into Canada from blaine then yup, i'm switching to USA gas with 4 jerries per trip.
back in the good ol' days precovid with a 2018 RDX
