> [@Diesel](#): > > Probably looked at your birthdate in profile Sure, but I could have started late. I was just joking. That is probably an accurate estimate. I started driving 2 months after my 16th. ---

> [@kingsario](#): > > I wish I owned a gas station No ya don’t. Gas is one of the lowest margin products in the world. It’s only marked up 3-5% over what gas stations pay. Nobody’s getting rich selling to the end user of gasoline. To the contrary, gas station owners are probably losing money as people are driving less due to increasing gas prices and lowering their margin to continue to sell competitively. Screw the moped, I’m getting a Big Wheel! That high final drive should really help cut fuel consumption! ---
