Funny!

[Mazzin]

I really need to trade in my truck.

Did you guys read about how GM is offering capped gas at $1.99 for certain vehicles now? Basically, you keep track of what you spend in gas each month and they send you a gift card with the difference between $1.99 and what you actually spent on gas.

Shame on you, GM !!!

[Mazzin]

Well I currently own a 2005 Ford F-150 Smoke grey.... Besides the point it is a ford so that dont matter to me unfortunaltly

[GBRulz]

It's just a buying perk for those looking at buying new GM's, (mostly SUV and trucks) not for like existing owners or anything like that.

I wish my SUV got better gas mileage, too Mazzin. Probably gets a little better than your truck, but it's not fun to put $60 in to fill up.

[Mazzin]

Yea mine is a 27 gallon tank at 2.76 = 74.52. But i never let it get BONE dry so it takes like 60 to fill, i think i get like 14 miles a gallon. One ? GBM i know you are one of the "top dogs" here, How did you get your custom name liek Hottie Rat. (Dont wanna be a "hottie" rat) Just asking like is tehre a forumla or does someone just decide hey this person talks about fishing so they will be fishing rat??

Thanks in advanced

[GBRulz]

mazzin, that's a good question for Mad. He has standard ranks, but also, after people get to know your personality a bit, he will custom make a name for you.

$2.76 for gas/ dayum, that's "cheap"

[Mazzin]

Cheap, where in the hell do you get gas and how much is it? Last week it was down to 2.56 but shot back up

[HarveyWallbangers]

It was $2.56/gallon here yesterday. I saw it went up to $2.73/gallon today.

[Mazzin]

"Die Hard" was on the tube last night and in one scene you can see the cop Al gassin' up and looking at gunfire at the Nakatomi Bldg. Gas was $.74/gallon. That was 1988, the year I graduated college. Also, when I was a kid, soda pop from the machine was .$25, and came in bottles. How's about that you whipper snappers!

[hurleyfan]

Here in NY, we finally have a few stations around that JUST went under $3.00 / gallon. 'Course Mobil is still about $0.15 higher!

Well, regular unleaded here is $2.89, it actually just came down a few cents. But I have to put premium in mine, which is $3.05/gal.

OMG, ya know 1988 was not THAT long ago, either!!

About a month ago, I was cleaning out a closet at home, in which were my HS yearbooks in a box. So, of course I start reading through them. The Gulf War was during my senior year of HS and gas was so "expensive" then. I was reading this part of the yearbook where we write in comments about what things cost currently, etc. Gas in 1991 was "expensive" due to the Gulf War at $1.68/gal

mazzin, you drive a truck, from the south, i bet you like nascar too??? if so stop in the race thread. if not, stop in anyhow and we'll get you hooked.

do you have a gun rack in that truck?? at 14mpg i'm going to guess is is a long box, 4x4? probably a quad cab?

i think your custom ranking should be "southern rat"

[Deputy Nutz]

When I started driving in 1995, Gas was almost 1.15 a gallon.

[Jimx29]

Why, in MY day.........we had to pee in our tanks and hoped we drank enough booze to make the cars run...and we LIKED IT!!

[GoPackGo]

I haven't been able to buy 87 octane gasoline for less than $3.10 in 2 months
