> So what, even at another $1/g, for most of you, that’s only another few hundred bucks, maybe you shouldn’t spend $9,000 on aftermarket parts to get worse gas mileage if you are so worried about it. There isn’t much you can do about it. Where you live is a decision, and so is what ytou drive. Being able to pay for a car has very little to do with being able to afford to drive it.

No. Will they trade in their truck that they haul stuff with once a year for a civic? No. Will they make an efford to reduce commute, take fewer trips, and use public transportation? No.

Everytime I read your posts in these threads all I can think of is “wow, walter really likes getting raped in the ass by oil companies.”

“Exxon is giving Lee Raymond one of the most generous retirement packages in history”

Gas prices rising and exxon decides to be generous. Good timing assholes. While this guy is buying 7000 ferraris and has his own private jet, everyone else has to deal with the prices of barrels increasing.

You must have such a callused ass, walter. because you take the poundings so well.
