If you honestly think about it a buck 50 a litre is hardly even that bad if your driving a freaking car. Wow you may pay 15-20$ extra month for gas and it won't even stay up there for long.

Yea my car is pretty good on gas, I don't mind the 2.2L when it comes to paying at the pump. For all you 4x4 drivers, bend over and grab your ankles because the oil company wants to fuck you up the ass!

60 bucks for me to full up from empty. I get around 20-23mpg in city , 28-30mpg on highway. Il keep my 4x4. I need a good daily driver winter/summer, eventually il get another sports car for a summer car.

But you got a diesel!

My old jeep would cost about 70 to 80 bucks to fill, and id use about tank and a half per week. Gotta bring jerry cans of gas to go offroading, or atleast to make it back into the city..

I just got another Jeep Cherokee, and really I've got to the point where I realize I ain't getting the greatest gas mileage but really it's all about if you enjoy driving mpg doesn't play a huge role anymore. You see people driving huge jacked up trucks and they wouldnt trade that wee 10mpg for a fwd car that is getting 3 times the mileage anyday.

I have a friend who works on the rigs and drives a massive truck, and I always tell him it would have been cheaper to just buy a hat that says I have a small penis. But, yes most truck drivers think their trucks double as sport cars. Well at least the ones that I know do. Same friend was telling me I should race him because he can beat integras in his truck. When I asked what type of integra he seemed confused, I than had to explain that different models have different levels of Hp. Also, truck drivers can always tell you how much Hp they have but never how much their truck weighs.

This has been my experience with pick up truck drivers, I am sure they are all not alike...but it makes me laugh.

YES! But seriously, (and yes I'm being a little hippocritical here) We can't really complainabout other people poluting the environment when we are running around in cat-less cars and such. Yes, the environment is in trouble, weather you believe it is green-house gasses, or the sun goign through one of its natural heat cycles. Gas is alway going to be expensive, lets just deal with it, and hope they lube us up before them bend us over everything we need gas.

Thats just my rant
