Clubfoothead Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 My wife and I are throwing a party at the costal St. Regis in California. You guys are all invited but if the tab at Spa Gaucin tops $24,000.00 I'm going to start passing a hat around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted October 12, 2008 Author Share Posted October 12, 2008 My wife drives a suburban. I drive a Silverado. I do have a Ranger and a Nissan but we don't drive them much. They don't seem to fit enough kids. Gas mileage sucks but my wife drives 7.5 miles round trip and I drive 5 miles round trip to work. That includes us dropping the kids off daily. Same with us. My wife drives a mountaineer but mostly local Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Neutron Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Thank you. Jimmy Neutron has a small penis. Discuss. You're as wrong about that as how far off you were on the price of my Tahoe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egret Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 it's a pathetic and womanly SUV, but an SUV nonetheless. and I'm sorry to shift the "argument" from your whiny sanctimonious browbeating of jimmy neutron. please, as you were....

moneymakers Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I drive a Dodge Stratus! I find this SNL skit sad and not funny. Do people actually still watch this drivel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavez Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Besides Atomic's electric car adventure, is anyone actually driving less, or in some other way using less gasoline than they have in the previous year or two? I've been commuting on a bicycle - two birds, one stone - less gas money/wear and tear on the car + a decent workout (only lost 15 lbs but lost probably 4-5 inches off my waist).

Chavez Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 My big issue $$$ wise is that since we've had our daughter: - we eat out FAR less - we don't go out to movies - we don't drop $50-80 Friday and/or Saturday out at the bars Of course, the $260/wk day care bill is blowing quite the financial hole in the side of the good ship Chavez.

Chavez Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I have an SUV. I like it but the gas mileage sucks. I would buy another. Or maybe a minivan someday. I have a Saturn Vue - smaller SUV, gets about 22 MPG city. And that's with ME driving - I like to pretend my last name is "Unser." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Neutron Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 (edited) I have a Saturn Vue - smaller SUV, gets about 22 MPG city. And that's with ME driving - I like to pretend my last name is "Unser." Only get about 17 with our GMC Envoy. Heck, my car only gets about 22-23...Chevy Impala... I got 18.8 mpg all highway in the Tahoe last week. It's a stock Vortec 350 except for a K&N intake. I'd like to open up the back end with a cat-back system - should provide another mpg and some extra horses. I mention that only because opening up both ends of any motor will generally yield 8-10% better fuel efficiency for a few hundred bucks - a quick payoff really.
