My dad told my mom that he is going to park his '07 Tundra and get a Harley to save money on gas. She believed that he will actually save money, she has not factored in the price of the bike. Whatever works for him!

I don't have to worry to much about the price of gas right now. I only drive 8 miles to work. It however will begin to cut down on the weekend cruises.

But yeah gas price definately sucks and I will definately jump back on the bike for commuting. I usually rack up about $100-120 a week in gas.
Ha yeah we share the sn cause I started one before he did and had more posts in order to sell some stuff. Now its convient if I want something I subscribe to the thread and he gets it on his blackberry, just so he knows That and we buy and sell a lot of parts so we can help eachother out doing it.

I am just glad I am drving the desiel till it sells rather than a daily driver. He got a new one to dd and has to drive an hour to work now from the new house Oh well it could be worse.

Whenever you get a big boy job and have to get up like the rest of us then we can talk about car pooling. Just kiddin bro.

I have only filled up once since moving in a week ago and still have a quarter tank. I used to have to fill up every three days. That is a nice looking TBSS you got, I almost got one identical to it before getting my truck but decided that I needed bed for throwing stuff in.
