Freakin gas prices, here we go again....

**83dropboy** · 03-12-2011, 12:47 PM

So how much is this going to put a damper on spring plans?
Personally, I'll just use the rolla or VROD for daily duty and the Stang for shows, track, just not as much leisure cruising.

With all the BS going on I do not think $5 a gallon by May 1st is completely out of the question.

More money to the greedy globalist oil companies and less into projects and hobby - awesome!

Winter has done me in. I'm gonna cruise my ass off until i can't afford to put gas in them anymore. I'll take the bike to run errands and take the cars to shows and track.

If they would tased you to pump gas, everyone would get tased.

**phillysrt4** · 03-12-2011, 08:24 PM

Try paying 1.28 a litre (4.83 a gallon) then complain :P

**PaxtonShelby** · 03-12-2011, 08:56 PM

I work 6 miles from home and my wife works 1 mile from home, so while the high gas prices suck, they don't affect me too much. What affects me is the 12 mpg my F150 gets...which is why I NEED a new 5.0 so my mpg will be twice as good!!! :D

**GEARHEAD94** · 03-12-2011, 09:38 PM

This is one of the reasons I traded my GT for the GTI.

**Ares** · 03-12-2011, 10:53 PM

I work 7 miles from home and thats the worst thing ever with stop and go crap.

So I say bah, $67.80 for half tank in my truck. More tiny cars on the road more gas for me :)

**John4cam** · 03-12-2011, 11:06 PM

I'm more worried about the prices of other consumer goods, like food, ect. It's not inflation, but our money showing it's weakening state.

**Twin01cobra** · 03-13-2011, 12:48 AM

I spent 205.00 dollars on gas this week for work

. Seems the ban on offshore drilling is working out real well.

**PaceFever79** · 03-13-2011, 11:39 AM

I know the right has its own reality, but the drilling ban has been lifted in the gulf,
the safety requirements are just higher now, which is a good thing.

The ****ing reality is that gas is 3.59 a gallon cause enviro whacko's, which are tied to the left prevent us from drilling for our own oil. That greedy president Bush is just lining his pockets, oh wait

**PaceFever79** · 03-13-2011, 12:26 PM

No, the reason oil is so high is because of predatory speculation in the markets.

There is currently MORE capacity than demand, yet prices keep rising.

Answer that one logically and you have my attention.

**Steve-0** · 03-13-2011, 01:10 PM

Yea the 11mpg in my truck is beat, but the cobra gets more than double that so I'll drive the piss outta it this summer.

**32valve** · 03-13-2011, 01:37 PM

Just dumped my F150 before the value of the truck drops due to fuel prices. Got into a Ford Fusion 25mpg city driving and 28/30 hgwy
F150= 13.5 driving with egg shell on gas pedal.
Went from $80 plus a week just to go to work to $30. Gonna miss the truck but, like extra cash in the pocket.
