I spend that just in gas

Does that include insurance? Parking? Gas? Car wash? What exactly are you including

Reasonable as in like is it too much, definitely not, reasonable as in, is that a fair estimate, I’d say it’s low. My car payment for a modest vehicle is 320, 110 insurance, gas for me is about 60/month, so I’m at about $400. If you’re about to buy a car, it may be challenging to find a 320 car payment, unless you get a beater. And the above doesn’t include anything like maintenance

No way dude. Car insurance in Ca is like $200/mo alone

If your car is paid off, then yes

I just paid $95 for gas today and that'll last me exactly 7 days. So I'd say no.

I don’t think you’re understanding the question that OP posted. If you’re paying over $400 a month in car expenses, then the $300-400 total for the car that OP is asking about IS considered reasonable, because it’s much below what you pay…get it?
