welcome to my world. It takes two swipes to fill up the truck. 150 all day long if it is even remotely close to the red.
If your gona kill me at the pump, aleast make it a one time deal....raise the limits. I think it is through deals with the CC well talk them into making it more.

Default Good News !

The only good news here is that NORT is always the first to know when the price changes as he is at eye level to the meter readings.

"Fortunately" they're still raping us on race gas too, so actually driving the Camaro is something of a joke. Almost a big a joke as the fact that it costs me $30/day to drive to work now (80 mile round trip)...

DS,
I hear ya brother, my commute is 80 round trip, and my 2006 F-350 is sitting in the driveway, and I'm driving an old 1992 Camero with the small block 305! Still costing me about $25/ day, and the wife's commute 3x's a week is 120 miles round trip!

I had an old vette with 11:1 compression. Used to mix some leaded 110 in with the pump 93.
I remember *****ing that the race gas was $4.00/gallon... that was 7 years ago.
Now we're paying that daily!!!

To get even further off track.....
I remember in high school- throwing $5 in my Chevelle was a normal gas station stop.
That was probably all I had, but would still buy enough gas to get around for a day or two.

Scary how much it has changed.
