When I had a Suburban and drove a lot more at $3.50gal, my gas bill was about $700/month. It’s part of the cost of living so you pay what you have to. Now I have a Land Cruiser and running premium so my math already looks different but I still enjoy driving.

Your 2uz doesn't require premium and you're just making it run worse (unless they changed something between 01 and 04). Run the lowest octane without pinging and if it doesn't recommend premium, it's a waste.
Our 2011 does require premium.... and to add to the thread.... we are considering trading/selling it in part due to it's mileage.
We've done the hybrid thing. Meh (owned both a Prius C and a Prius V).
I would get another T4R. Our 97 gets around 20 and happy about that.
