local prices here are averaging 2.43 to 2.63 for regular.....I'm hoping the Pilot/Loves gas stations are much cheaper in a week and a half (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)
I'm guessing I'll be lucky to get 15mpg in my truck if I tow the 914.....close to 900 miles round trip......ouch.... |

That wont happen, Bush is an oil man himself and profits are going into his great grandchildrens pockets and their grand childrens pockets and so on. The reason the gas is so high is because we accept it. They say the pen is mightier than the sword but yet I think the real power is in the people. If we just stopped buying their product for a year, things might change, but the chance of that happening is nill. The economy is heading for a fall very soon, mark my words, the housing market will be one of the first to fall. The shit will hit the fan so to speak and we will be deep into a major depression. I believe it will happen in my lifetime. This is only my opinion but it sure seems like everything is heading that direction. It is all based on greed. Everyone wants something for nothing and they want to make as much as they can from as little as they can. They sell old used stuff that cost pennies to make back 30 years ago and they tell you its overhead so it costs more. Double taxing in many cases. Why should I have to pay tax on something that someone else bought new and paid the tax then? Charging tax for used stuff is just wrong. It goes on and on.
