Something to think about the next time you are at the gas pump. Oh, yes....$4.8 million.

Thats just crazy. If someone was driving that I would just follow it around hoping that some of the diamonds would fall off. Or better yet wait until they park and take some Honey I got you some diamond earrings.

nothing like a putty knife and a turned head, right Huy?

Can you imagine that thing driving down the highway in the mid-day sun?

True, American gas money is buying ridiculous things like that. But it's also buying ridiculous things like this. Oh, and this.

A year ago was the first time in twenty-six years that Americans drove less than the year before, and for those 26 years we averaged a growth rate of 2.7%. That's a LOT of miles, and a LOT of gas.

I don't like preaching, but think what the United States could do with all the money we're sending around the world that's being used to make stupid islands and a ridiculously tall building in the sand. Not to mention a Mercedes covered in diamonds. And you know the people with our money aren't going to do anything positive with it.

Try to use less gas.
