I've been saving and finally have the dough for a SC and Differential upgrade but I have to put it on hold.
I filled up my tank this morning and premium gas was $2.54/gallon.
Oil per barrel went up again pushing gas prices even higher.
I'm putting off modding my engine/drive train with hopes things will turn around soon.
I get 28 mpg now, with the mods it will be around 20 mpg.
Just wanted to express my frustration!!!

 

What I love is the fact that they charge you more now for oil that's not even out of the ground yet

 

$2.54? Bah, don't whine, I pay something like $6 a gallon here!

But at least I can drive as fast as I want... sometimes.

I am paying 2.03 for 93 octane. Its not too bad. I have gotten the itch for mods. I'm picking up my IHE set up

 

i should move back to philly...WA's premium 92 is 2.25 no money for mods, gotta save up for college. ::sigh:: i'll be like one of those 25 yr old dudes who still try to mod cars.

 

damn opec.

It's too bad the environmentalists fight tooth and nail against drilling in Alaska, which has a shitload of oil...then you have Kerry's plan for energy independence which I guess calls for embracing others or something...yea.

 

High performance and MPG are inversely proportional. Then again, a SC and a differential are about the same price as a number of '00 used sportbikes that will do the quarter mile in under 11 seconds and still get 35-40 mpg.

 

Was having no problem getting a little money together to get some essential mods, but today i got laid off so I'm putting some mods off til i get the next job

still got a testpipe i gotta bolt on though so its all Hope to get that up this weekened, ment to last weekend but too busy

 

My eyes get glassed over and my palms get sweaty when I think about S2K mods--do you think I care about gas prices?!!!

Then again, it could be a medical condition...

 

yeah you lucky s have the autobahn!!!!!! i pay 2.05 a gallaon ofr Super 93 octane
