Batman Downsizes Due to High Gas Prices

Despite being able to defeat The Joker, time and time again… Batman, like the rest of us, can’t win at the pumps.   You know it’s bad when Bruce Wayne can’t even afford to fill up his gas guzzler.

However, I hope he didn’t make a rash decision and did the proper calculations to determine if downsizing really makes sense in his case.  You can find out if trading in your gas guzzler is a smart move by using this calculator.

His new SMART Coupe doesn’t appear to carry nearly the same firepower as the Batmobile either.  Hope that doesn’t come back to bite him later.
