Sup guys,

I have been away from the forums lately. I know, my bad.

But besides work and the girlfriend i have been away from truck stuff and so, away from TRS. Posting that is, because I always check it every now and then.

Well the news I bring: RSH will be sold. :sad:

It is well known that I pay a lot for gas, in fact I'm paying $5 per gallon. Spending around $80 per week in gas.

So I will get rid of the truck and get a car. I started looking for a 03-04 Honda Civic, since they provide good gas mileage, but I tested a MAzda 3 and I felt in love with it.

So I will be looking for a 3 once RSH is sold.

I love my truck, but I need better gas mileage and well, a bit of comfort wouldn't hurt.

Besides, Ford still has something to do with Mazda right?

Just because you don't have a ranger, dont mean you gotta leave. Sometimes life takes over and there's nothing you can do about it. Good luck in car searching :thumbup:

Sent from, wait how did this get here?

$80 a week in gas? That's a car payment.

Geeze, I only pay $80 a month, and gas here is almost $4.

I don't think the problem is gas prices, I think you just drive too much.

If I told you guys that gas has gone back down to $3.18 here, would you hate me? That is what I paid at Chevron last night.

RSH (aka therapist.... err the rapist) you'd better not take off on us. Don't become a stranger. I've been Rangerless for 19 months, and still come around.

DUDE!!! DUDE!!! Sorry to here this, Bro. We have 5 vehicles plus we have 2 ATV's and a flats boat as well. We gas up a few times a month. Gas right now in our area is $3.69-$3.73 (83 octane) which is better than some areas!! I hate to see you have to get rid of just one vehicle. I have friends who drive their rides with 35-40 inch tires everyday and never complain. They know we are stuck with these prices. None of my buddies will get rid of their rides. I will not sell my Wrangler or my Sammy. Those get used once or twice a month. My flats boats goes out every other month for a 2-3 day adventure. The ATVs are going to be sold later this year or by next year. I don't use them as much as I used to...3-4 days a week tops when I went out on the properties to check on the areas. Once you own a home and property you will always need a truck to get the large stuff to the house no matter what...right?

Hmmmmm...about those tires and those mods you made that chew up gas faster than you can say "My enchilada is talking to me in French but I just replied in German because it was made by a Greek"...what was I going to say...

oh, yeah...a honda or a mazda can't get you through what your truck could and with the new girlfriend having twins next year will mean you are going to have to get an even bigger car after the next five kids are born...

Oh, well, it is your decision...although I'd have to think seriously about what Lima posted before giving up your huge manhood status symbol...lol...

Either way...if the enchilada speaks again just bite it!

I live 8 miles from work and spend at least that much in gas. LOL.

You'll miss your truck bro but you'll still be around.
