Getting a little out of hand!


AHHH!!! Fudge it. Where are these cars of the future? $4 a gallon, wanna see $5 in the same year? OPEC, screw them, and they screw us back.

So lets all get drunk and come up with a better idea. :beer::icon_cheers:
 
ya, its supost to be $5.00 here in washington state by summer, less campin/wheelin trips for me this summer if its gunna be like that.

Where did you hear that?
 
We in this country are really going to have to modify our diving habits and what we dirve, the problem is only to get worse. Do we really need having a truck or could we just buy a trailer if we needed to haul something? Do we need a big lifted truck just to go out and play? Don't blame the countries in the Middle East, we get biggest percentage of oil supply right here from North/South America. Might as well blame China, millions of them now have become affunent enough to buy cars and really driving up the usage of "our" gas.

There is going to be a lot LESS "cruisin" around town in the BIG TRUCKS the way the price of gas is going now. And "cruisin" ain't going to be the only thing either. There is going to be a LOT MORE CRIMES committed due to people stealing gas anyway they decide to do it & probably a lot MORE ammo bought to protect what gas you have bought. As far as I am concerned, me, Mr. Winchester, Mr. Smith & Wesson & Mr. Klock will protect what little LIGUID GOLD I have any way I have to do it.

The Virginia state motto is: Don't Tread on Me & I for one take those words very seriously. Need I say more?
 
Oh yeah, for posterity...

Thank you Bushco and corporate America for exporting our lifestyle to the two most populated countries to further increase your profits, at the expense of the country that allowed your creation.

1st world status was nice while it lasted, wasn't it?
 
It's 1.08 a liter here and the media is reporting that'll go up to 1.50 by summer. Thats $6.75 a gallon , give or take ??


I'm going to piss a lot of you off right now. I don't care what it costs because I'm still going wheeling, camping, road trips whatever. I'll give up my cell phone,coffee and beer , LOOONG before I stop driving.

I'll just charge more to fix your vehicles.
 
hey man i hear ya but a pack a camels at 3.39 who can complain i pay 12.50 for a pack of export A smokes. (25) We're up to 1.17 a litre for gas, or $5 + a gallon.
 

holy crap...your hand writing and the fact that you write your mileage (with tenths) on the tops of your gas receipts exactly like i do threw me for a loop for a second there....i was wondering how someone got ahold of one of my old receipts.

twighlight zone...doo-dee-doo-doo doo-dee-doo-doo...

My thoughts exactly, I wont give up coffee as a friend of mine works for Van Houtte Coffee :D. Also buddy, its a buck 10 just south of you. I'm not going to give up driving, I'm just going to give up my 6.5mil/gal gas hog of a Dakota

On a side note...Anyone want to buy a Dodge Dakota?
 
i work at the local grocery store an iam already seeing prices being raised on certain things.. i mean ya it deff sucks.. most of your paycheck goes into fuel every week.. as some people have stated try an adapt.. i used to run the rds an would do 100-200 miles a week. now ive cut way down an only travel out if i need to an ive gone 65 miles this week. ive picked up a lil 4 banger 2wd ranger for summer so the big 4x4 will be sitting quite a bit.
hope fully soon their will be a dramatic break through on an alternative fuel that will let the price of petroleum products go down while boosting alternative energy. an keeping every one happy. if thats even possible.

Fawking A! Or is it fawking eh?

Cars, wheelin, and the outdoors are what I live for. I'll be damned if i'm going to stop driving. Like you said, i'll just have to cut back on other "luxuries".

Sorry to say it, but I truly doubt the price will ever go DOWN. Once the price hits a certain point and stays there for awhile it won't go down, give or take 25 cents. The only thing that we could really do is stop the rate of increase with bio fuels, but I don't want to be paying a kit and kaboodle for food either. It is a shitty deadlock: Most of us need fuel to make money to eat, so bio fuels would likely just put us all the hole even further for what little good it does. It sucks. :dntknw:

thats fine and dandy for people like you who can afford it. but what about people like me who are already scraping by? its sad, but the truck spends most of its days parked in the feild next to the house now. i cant afford to take it out but on the weekends and even then i cant go far.

had lots of camping and wheeling trips planned last year that got cancelled due to having to make a choice between buying groceries and going camping.
