I’m a bit worried that they’re going to make the hurricane a scapegoat for rising gas prices. But 24mpg isn’t bad for my old hunk of burning love. But anyway, I remember when $19 would fill her up, not merely 42% of the tank. Life happens I guess. ☹ ---

lol, at first this is what I thought you typed: > [@Janny](#): > > … until he falls asleep… then he dreams about Lance Bass regardless, I stopped looking at the gas prices, I just swipe my card, pick 93 and fill her up. at least it saves me the headache of knowing im paying double what I payed last year (( different vehicle etc )). i usually think the idea of ignorance being bliss is stupid, but in this instance i find it very fitting and beneficial. only because i have no intrest in selling my car, and i dont want to go back to driving some diesel POS just for gas milege reasons. and it’s not having some huge financial impact, it just means i dont buy a stupid car magazine here, or bring in my lunch once or twice a week. if doing this stops a headache or being irritable or aggrevated, then it’s worth it :gotme: ---
