jaxfactor Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Was $3.33 a gallon on Thursday and I still had a quarter tank. So I went to get gas on Friday(Pay day) and it went up to $3.45 here in North Florida. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chappy Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 (edited) $3.27 for Regular here in NJ. The last time I filled up, which was just a couple days ago, it was $3.05. I brought my gas container for the lawn mower and paid $5.00 for a gallon and a half. I remember when regular gas used to be like $.73 cents a gallon and you could fill a gas container with a dollar, maybe a buck and a half. Hell, you could practically get half a tank of gas with $5.00 back then. Edited April 19, 2008 by Chappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargerz Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Just heard on the news that we're averaging $3.86/gal for regular unleaded. Â I'm thinking $5.00/gal by year's end. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Filled up today at $3.49 in Pittsburgh. This sucks and I don't think it is going to get better anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Funny you mention that... I went to the grocery store yesterday, and a guy pulled in right after me on a horse. I have seen them ride them on the trail by our home, but it was the first time I saw someone running chores on their horse. He came out of the store with a couple bags, some beer and rode home. He was dressed in shorts and a tank top. Was it a Japanese horse? Seems to me that is around...oh, 1 horsepower or so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Beatings Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I am seriously considering the purchase of a scooter... even if that means being branded with a big pink triangle... if I spend $500 and just use it to commute during the Summer, I'm guessing that I could save some serious change (assuming it lasts at least a couple of years). Dang it... why does everything that is economical have to be so incredibly ghey?!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one above is 150cc.Both will get good milage. Â Go get a dirt bike or something around 100-200CC's. Â Motorcycle fuel economy guide. Â A few years old but the Honda Rebel 250 gets 75-85 MPG according to them. Â The Honda Unicorn 150 gets about 118 MPG.

yo mama Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 (edited) It was like $3.90 a gallon for 87 octane this weekend in San Jose. Yeah inflation! Some how this is supposed to help out the "credit crunch" and subprime mortgage debacle. But with people on the edge paying more for everything, it seems to me it could push those folks up and over the edge. Wouldn't that make things even worse?
