Understood! You cant beat that, but what you saved in the price was a known loss on resale! as well as a loss at the fuel pump!
at the time, i didnt know itd only get 28mpg. other wise i would have got a cheapass escort.

They've been talkin' about gas going over $4/gallon for the past three years now... I wonder if this will be the year...

We still get our gas cheaper than anywhere else in the world...

Shoot, mine is up to 3.79 already here in Eureka, CA!!! Diesel is 4.19 and its been over 3.50 for well over 2 months now. People always talk about S.F. being the highest in the nation, but drive 5 hours north and tell me again.

There is a place up the street from me that is silly amounts of expensive...reg is up to $3.99/gal.

If they lowered their prices I would probably go there almost every time I needed gas...instead I use the one that is on my way home from work which is usually around $.50 less/gal.
