I **** you not. Fuel here is $10 plus a gallon here. Think yourselves lucky.

Just as well my Mustang isn`t my daily driver.

AND I`m thinking of 4.10s!

We've been here before. Not much we can do about the price. I noticed that non-ethanol premium was $3.59 a gallon today. Haven't put gas in the mustang since Oct. Our Daily driver gets 35 MPG. It is what it is.

About $3.70 for premium around here. I have my open track event comming up and I burn at least a tank of gas per day while on track. Two or three tanks getting there and back, two tanks for while I'm on track. I'm going to be paying out the *** for gas in the comming couple or weeks.

No doubt. At least I don't drive the car often normally, so it evens out a bit. Also, I'm not trailering the car like I did last Spring when I had an event at the Nashville Superspeedway. That truck pulling the trailer got absolutely horrible gas mileage. I probably spent close to $400 on fuel for that trip, I forget how much gas cost about this time last year.

I had a trip to Springfield, MO last weekend but we took the girlfriend's 4 cyl Eclipse, gas cost about $3.30. It was close to a 400 mile round trip, spent $45 on gas, which is about 28 miles per gallon. Pretty good considering the steep, curvy, mountain roads that I was zooming around on. I also get reimbursed for that amount since it was for bussiness. I've gotten 40 mpg in her car on a 200 mile flat interstate trip once.

If my bike ever gets fixed Ill be rocking 45-50 miles to the gallon, so these gas prices can kiss my ***. But thats if the D-bags can fix it sometime before next ******* year.

I noticed my premium was at $3.50 on Tues. I thought I could wait. Then it was
$3.62 on Weds. so I pulled in and got $20 worth. That put me at 1/2 tank. I only have to drive 8 miles a day to and from work. And to the beer store on Sat.. I'll be ok for at least another week or 2. Unless I get the urge to let her eat a little bit. Which does happen often..

The cheapest station around my house is now at $3.99 for 91 as of this morning. Freakin awesome and I get to fill up two cars with 91. Luckily I now only drive 12 miles roundtrip to work. Pretty sure the price jumped $.10 within 2-3 days. Total BS.And yet it takes like 6 months for prices to drop $.10, when it ever does.
