I'm sick of these gas prices jumping all over the dang place

Amen, my car will need a full tank of 93 this morning. Where's the suicide smilie?

Nothing is ever free. I still "re-learn" that lesson at least weekly.

It's not that bad. I ony have to work a couple hours so its a good trade off

I won't make it very far this morning

I won't drive by the gas station taking the kid to school, it is .9 miles away.. and yes I will stop and fill before I go that .7 miles further to the school

 

[Tydeeh22]

the british behemoth. disco 2. leaks oil (as any of them do), no power steering, (dont wanna rip the front end apart again), does have the denter diff lock kit tho.. .

I hope you make it. Nothing like running out of gas in a car....unless youre in a boat. With a car you walk to get gas.
