ok, some/most of us have other cars and families not just owning a "muscle car". gas prices play a huge role in most peoples lives. and gas prices dont just hurt when your filling up. it inflates everything else. who do you think payes for the extra money spent on diesel that the frieght/trucking industly pays? Us..... **** rolls down hill.

We are not complaining. I was simply wondering if anyone started to see the price of gas drop yet with the price of oil decreasing.

Not complaining about mileage. The SS gets shitty mileage and I know it...so i don't drive it that often. Still have to drive other places though in my other vehicles...and i still have to pay to fill them up. $75 fill ups for 87 octane gets ******* old, real quick.

not to mention the other things its affecting. Delta just started charging like $50 for a 2nd checked bag! and $125 if you check another! Not to mention milk and other essentials going up
