Umm. I don't even drive much and I pay $300 a month for gas. Cable is only $75.

I do not even know how much gas is per gallon...

I drive a big body 78 grand marquise, gets 7 mpg... lol

I go where I want, when I want, what I want and fill my tank up with premium speedway gas when the needle goes under half ...

mozadek · 05-26-2008, 03:30 PM

$20 a gallon will keep me in doors.

Not all of them. Directv has every non pay per view channel in a package for $99 though. They bust you up for $5/month more for every receiver beyond the first though so you are looking at about $120 probably.

Nobody carpools anymore... if people started doing that again, damn, who would care about the prices?

tranza · 05-26-2008, 03:40 PM

You guys complain a lot. You do know that your gas is still one of the cheapest in the world, right??

OG LennyT · 05-26-2008, 03:43 PM

I'm walking everywhere now, but when it gets hotter, I'll be driving again. Fuck gas prices, I'll be driving electric next year

something that's pointed out in every gas thread on GFY

It's all relative though... you pay high gas but live in shit so everything else is small cost. We're all fucked in the end.

It is the 2 door like this..

Except mine is red and white.. With 82k miles..

I also have a '78 f100 truck...

V_RocKs · 05-27-2008, 01:02 AM

I don't worry about the price of gas all that much. My friends do. They bring it up constantly...

My kids wanted to go to the beach with another family we know. We invited them and they basically said they would if I drove and didn't ask for gas money because the current price has them unable to do anything. I was like... wow... fucking sucks... Can you push buttons? cause that is all I do and I make enough where the price isn't a factor.

To better answer the question... About $20 per gallon would get to me to look into alternate modes of transportation. Electric vehicle etc...

05-27-2008, 01:23 AM

At 6.8$ / gal .. oh wait I'm paying this much now.

duff · 05-27-2008, 02:43 AM

If you can't afford a few extra bucks in gas to get you to your destination, you probably can't afford to be going out in the first place.

Thats pretty damn cheeky to ask you that. How much would it cost to go to the beach and back? $20? If I had kids I wouldn't mind driving them but if someone came out and said that to me I'd be very pissed off. Its just down right cheeky. I bet those same people smoke and drink a lot? Honestly can't believe they said that to you.
