So I just filled up gas before I walked into my office and it was $3.09. 8 Hours later after work, I drive past the same gas station and its $3.25, seriously what the hell is going on, I hear now were estimated to be at $4.00 by the summer. We just hit 2.50 last year what the hell is going on, i dunno just a little frustrated..it costs me nearly 35.00 to fill up my integra and a little over 62.00 to fill up the nsx....damn gas prices i swear

NO kidding. It's at 2.95 but having to put 91 or better means I'm at 3.15. I have to fill twice a week so when gas jumps 1.00 per gallon it costs me an extra $20.00/week or 80 bucks a month extra. It's killing me....I don't have an extra $80/month to spare right now.

On average it's 3.4 for 91 for me so those unsafe small cars with high mpg are really getting my attention...or, I thought of just biking to work or running...

 

Shoot at these prices...I almost consider biking to work....and I work 40 miles from home.. :laugh:

yup, I work 33 miles away and I'm considering it too...

 

There are positives about not having a car :)

But the negatives outweigh the positives by far.

 

what are the negatives?

 

no car: no gas, no insurance, no accidents, no worrying about hit and runs or friends' french fries or anything else...

 

how about making a little motorized scooter? it is much cheaper than a car and more fun...just gotta be careful of crazy drivers...

I miss driving

My friends got tired of driving me so they don't do it anymore. So I just stopped hanging out with them.

I ran out of school debit and I need a ride to go to walmart to get supplies.

I'm organizing a car wash and I need to get supplies for that.

I'm in my room all the time and I'm bored all the time.

I don't get out as much as I used to.

 

It just straight up sucks.

I've spent 60 bucks on gas in the past two months, 1. My car wouldn't start for a month, 2. I haven't been able to drive for 2 1/2 weeks cuz of the meds I'm on. I'm saving all kinds of money, but I'm just blowing it on stupid sh!t, like cigarettes and porno.

you guys can all blame your goverment for this. georgie boy and his affiliates. unical and haliburton oil companys. using his terms as a get rich while im in power plan , and use my peoples money to fund my war on oil , i mean terrorism in the east , lol. so think about it , he charges you a fortune for gas and oil to pay to send yours and other countries kids and families out east to die to protect his oil fields. quite a deal. dont listen to the oil is running out bullcrap and we cant refine it fast enough , and all the other bullcrap excuses they use to charge us twice as much cause there time is running out. the pipelines and other oil and gas delivery projects/plans in the middle east , are all laid and planned by the same people who fuk us on prices everyday.

 

i cant remember if it was unical or haliburton , perhaps another , but , one of these companys , just one , has posted a 40 billion dollar profit for the first quarter this year. 40 billion dollars in one 1/4. so , at same rate , year end profits will be around 160 billion dollars. they say they charge more money cause of thier costs , yet thier still posting 160 billion dollar profits? thats not including what the goverment makes off it in taxes , thats one set of hands in your pockets. something seriously wrong there. but they have no opposition or policing. they rape the world clean , and try and not pass our 4 cylinder cars for emissions. give us tickets for tint on our windows , blue light bulbs. many other mods. they see us like cattle , a huge cash crop. aint communism great. we are slowly , quietly slipping into a state of fachism , spurred by your goverment. go read about the patriot act.

Here you go on your stupid political rampage against Bush again. This was a nice thread to vent about gas until now.

 

Oh, and if you wanna point fingers at George, then what can you blame your government for? Your gas is still higher than ours even with ours getting as high as it is.

 

Oh and btw.....even if our gas gets to 4/gallon...we'll still be cheaper than most of the world including Canada (not counting the middle east). I'm only complaining because it's more than I'm used to and more than I have budgeted since I drive so much. I'm still grateful, in a way, for having gas that's only 3.xx a gallon.

 

Average gas in Canada as of today is 1.11 per liter. 1.11 x 3.785 (liters per gallon) = $4.20 per gallon. There you go, now start bashing on your own country about the gas prices.

im pretty sure inflation is partly to blame here. everything is becomeing more expensive- no one is complaing about the cost of milk, which right now is 3.5 a gallon, im sure u no one compalins when when they pay $5 a QT for Synthetic oil? its not like u can fight or boycot gas- so ya just have to accept it.

Hay my 4Runner sucks down gas horribly, 17mpg, i cant complain bc i have to drive where i gotta go!
