There's more to life than gas mileage.

I hear ya, filled up the wagon today with the cheapest gas I could find and it still cost me $58. I'm scared to fill the Camaro, although its a smaller tank I only use the good stuff. And at $3.17 per its gonna kill me.

Time to start looking for a gas hog. I missed all the good deals in the 70s - won't happen again.

Damn Ellis, the TA was under 1/4 tank this morning & it only took $40, and that was at $3.29 / gal. Sounds like someone's gas pump is out of cal.

Man it is getting pricey. The jetta isn't even really cost effective anymore. I don't see Ole' Harvey the RV making any long trips this summer!

Tank was just damn near empty, fuel line popped of yesterday and pumped most of my race gas of the floor while I was tring to figure out why it woul not run. 15.765 gallons at $3.299 a gallon.

When I bought this car one of my first joys was pumping it full of 92 Chevron. She took a little over 10 gallons and only cost $12!!

I made the mistake of running low on gas and had to get some fuel downtown yesterday.

$3.60 a gallon!

We'll see 4 bucks a gallon for premium here pretty soon.

I drive from Arlington -> Redmond -> Arlington everyday.

Fill up every 2 days @ $45.

...Yea....

You just gotta deal with it. To be honest I'm more upset with the 10 hours lost during the week just commuting. And that's if there is no traffic.

Dude. I don't even want to know.

Actually I do. I'm guessing $80-90? A decent sized SUV the other day ahead of me in line pulled $71 on 89.
