Hmmmm, good question. I can't really remember. It was over 3-4 months ago that I got the insurance quotes on my car, and at the time I remember one of the agents telling me what the insurance difference was between the GT and V6... can't remember what it was, but I do know it was a hell of a lot more than 10 bucks a month (thinking between 50 and 100 but not sure). Even if it was only 10bucks extra a month, going from the V6 to the GT would be an extra $300+ a month payment alone (from what the Ford quoted me)! I'm already paying $500 a month as it is (and yes, even though it's $500 Cdn, you can't forget I get paid in Cdn dollars, so it's still relative). On top of all that, here in good old St. John's Newfoundland, with a couple oil rigs off our coast and one of the newest oil refineries on the Eastern seaboard only a 45min drive away, we pay $1.00 a litre for 87 octane gas ($3.79Cdn per US gallon, so approx $3 US a gallon) so there's all sorts of extra costs to consider between the GT and V6 here. Later.
