About The Project

Drive Pricer is a tool that aims to help people make informed financial decisions when purchasing a car. The standard metrics around gas mileage simply aren't useful for predicting the cost of gas for a vehicle. By estimating the fuel costs for a substantial portion of a vehicle's life, a buyer can better understand the true cost of that vehicle.

Drive Pricer's second purpose is to help people improve their environmental impact by connecting it to their pocket book.
