Damn, this is crazy.

JFPdude 04-04-2005 07:41 PM

bly 04-04-2005 07:41 PM

yeah seriously, mine cost me about 65$

JFPdude 04-04-2005 07:42 PM

damn you got a small tank too :-/

After Shock Media 04-04-2005 07:42 PM

I paid close to 2.00 for a head of iceburg lettuce today. It is one of the true indicators of how bad gas prices are effecting shit.

TheJimmy 04-04-2005 07:42 PM

lucky you, took me 63 bucks to fill up the tahoe... :(

time for me to buy an old VW station wagon to beat around in lol...

NaughtyAlysha 04-04-2005 07:42 PM

The tank on our Suburban costs about $60 to fill up. My Corvette tank costs about $45... but that's super unleaded.

JFPdude 04-04-2005 07:45 PM

$2.45 cents tonight in good ole north carolina. Wifes van took 70 bucks and my big old gas guzzling smog infested beast drank up 85 bucks of that good ole texas tea.

David! 04-04-2005 07:45 PM

I got an explorer so I should consider myself lucky then, lol

Furious_Male 04-04-2005 07:45 PM

My F250 is taking around 60 dollars as well on regular unleaded.

I haven't even busted the vette out yet. Super is expensive as hell.

But you know what they say. Don't play if you cant pay.

markyman 04-04-2005 07:46 PM

They say it will top off at $2.50 for regular unleaded in about month.........geeesh

True, although this is more a question of purchase satisfaction, not much can be had from buying gas, not as exciting as burning money at the mall :2 cents:

Spunky 04-04-2005 07:49 PM

Only cost me 65 bucks,up from 53 two weeks ago

Nismo 04-04-2005 07:49 PM

This is going to hurt all those pizza delivery drivers.

Time to buy vespas.

pornguy 04-04-2005 07:50 PM

58.00 to fill my F150.

I am getting a new car.

crowkid 04-04-2005 07:50 PM

All I gotta' say is you know gas prices are completely fucked up when regular unleaded in Houston costs you $2.00... This is the first time we've seen that type of price here ever...

Yes but fuel is what makes our toys run so we have to factor that in.

Oh yes it will, though ask a truck driver what he thinks right now. Prices on everything is skyrocketing and I am doing a remodel, this FOB is killing me.

Fake Nick 04-04-2005 07:51 PM

water cost about as much as gas

JFPdude 04-04-2005 07:52 PM

Back when I started driving I owned a big old LTD ragtop ... gas was like .19 cents a gallon. We all used to chip in 50 cents and drive around town all night.

When we stopped for gas the attendant always checked the tire pressure, oil, and cleaned the windows.

Today at $2.45 a gallon the gas station attendent sits in a tempurature controlled booth and has no clue what a gas cap looks like. Much less how to open the hood.

Furious_Male 04-04-2005 07:52 PM

Thats the bad thing. These high fuel prices have a major domino effect.

Yup and really feeling that here already.

BV 04-04-2005 07:53 PM

Still plenty of fucking traffic though.

I don't think it affects anyones driving habits at all.

Oh, the good old time, I used to have an old chevy van, all fucked up and rusted up, called it the fuck mobile as we put an old sofa in the back, back then it was around 99 cents a gallon and we were complaining already

It was a 1980 model I think, had for 2 years until the condo commando where I lived had it towed because it had a custam "tagger" paint job, lol.

Those from the US have a way of adapting. I don't think we will see major changes in traffic and peoples mind set until gas creeps into the 4-5 dollar range.

shermo 04-04-2005 07:58 PM

My old Avalanche used to take $78.00. Now it takes $43 to fill up my 350-Z.

That's the economy I guess....

Mr Pheer 04-04-2005 08:00 PM

cost me $67 to fill the tank on my 4x4

and $13 to fill the tank on my Honda Interceptor

and I think both will go about the same amount of miles on a tank full :Oh crap

I was just in France, almost $6 a gallon and traffic is beyond crazy. Same thing all over western Europe. So, I'm not even sure it will really have an effect, I complain but I still drive the same, and so do most people.
What will happen eventually is that the people who do not have expandable income will start to switch their money to gas purchases and the economy will start to take a dive :(

Spunky 04-04-2005 08:04 PM

I still will be driving my gas guzzling caddy

JFPdude 04-04-2005 08:04 PM

We use this for camping. Because we like to rough it when camping. 2 tanks 35 gallons each LOL ... when I pull into the gas station the manager sees stars when I put the pump nozzle in it.

Veterans Day 04-04-2005 08:14 PM

72 bucks for the F350 today, mind you its a dually so it gets 10 MPG at best LOL. Seriously though, I can remeber gas being in the 1.20 to 1.80 range for what seems like decades, its obviously not, but its the sharp increase over a short span is what is killin everyone.

wiggitywack 04-04-2005 08:16 PM

Well, the bad news is this is just the start. A lot of changes wil happen in our lifetime in regards to cheap energy based on petrol.

The planet consumes 1 billion barrels of oil every 11 days. We are pumping out way more oil than they can find new reserves of, and with the way India and China are growing, it is only getting worse.

Simple supply and demand, oil is not renewable and moreover everyone wants to live like an American. So, demand goes up , supply goes down - prices rise. A term you will hear a lot of is "peak oil". Well, we have hit "peak oil" production - and supplies will begin going down within 5 years or so, as demand increases from global population growth / Asian economic growth.

Goldman Sachs released this report today, sent prices of crude up big time:
The bank called its forecast "conservative."

Goldman sees oil spiking to $105
http://money.cnn.com/2005/03/31/news...dman_oil.reut/

my suggestion - get a diesel powered vehicle and rig it to run on vegtable oil. You'll be laughing at your neighbor who is filling up at $10 a gallon in 2010

BVF 04-04-2005 08:20 PM

man stop complaining. It's still chump change compared to other countries. Plus all of you big time pornographers certainly can afford it. I just drove 550+ miles today PLUS had to pay those high ass tolls coming through Chicago. I didn't even look at the gas prices. I just stuck the thing in and filled up my tank as needed.

BadBrad 04-04-2005 10:08 PM

Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip
to the pump...


Compared with Gasoline


http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/pump2.gif
Think a gallon of gas is expensive?
This makes one think, and also puts things in perspective.



Diet Snapple http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/snapple.gif 16 oz $1.29 ........ $10.32 per gallon



Lipton Ice Tea http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/icetea.gif 16 oz $1.19 ...........$9.52 per gallon



Gatorade http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/gatorade.gif 20 oz $1.59 ...... $10.17 per gallon


Ocean Spray http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/oceanspray.jpg 16 oz $1.25 . $10.00 per gallon

Brake Fluid http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/brakefluid.jpg 12 oz $3.15 . $33.60 per gallon

Vick's Nyquil http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/nyquil.jpg 6 oz $8.35 .... $178.13 per gallon

Pepto Bismol http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/pepto.jpg 4 oz $3.85 ..... $123.20 per gallon

Whiteout http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/whiteout.jpg 7 oz $1.39 ......... .. $25.42 per gallon


Scope http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/scope.jpg 1.5 oz $0.99 .$84.48 per gallon

And this is the REAL KICKER...


Evian water http://www.eyekandie.com/brad/evian.gif 9 oz $1.49..........$21.19 per gallon?! $21.19 for WATER - and the buyers don't even know the source. (Evian spelled backwards is Naive.)


So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water, Scope, or Whiteout, or God forbid Pepto Bismol or Nyquil.

Just a little humor to help ease the pain of your next trip to the pump...

PenisFace 04-04-2005 10:11 PM

Maybe everyone complaining about high gas prices should buy honda civics and get 30 mpg :winkwink:

rickholio 04-04-2005 10:23 PM

I'm endlessly amused by all these comparisons to snapple, water and so forth. I'm wondering who introduced this rediculous meme in the first place... obviously someone with a vested interest in keeping people from freaking out over gas prices.

First off, and lets be real here, most people drink their water from a tap which only has some nominal municipal water charge, or however much it costs in power to run it from the well and filter it. BOTTLED water, a luxury, charges what people are willing to pay, like every other luxury (ie. snapple, potato chips, or whatever other measure of cost-per-weight you want to use).

What all those luxuries don't do, that gas/oil does, is increase the price of OTHER things. You don't see the cost of bottled water affect the price of a head of lettuce, or the price of scope. The price of gas, however, DOES affect the price of that lettuce directly. If it costs an extra $.25 per head to transport it, you can bet that it'll cost an extra $.35 in the store to buy it, in addition to the extra buck it cost to get you to the store in the first place. :2 cents:

bdld 04-04-2005 11:10 PM

try driving an escalade in southern california, sheesh its like 60 or 70 for a full tank.

KRL 04-04-2005 11:15 PM

Gas is heading to $70 a barrel.

LasseKongos 04-04-2005 11:18 PM

Why are you complaining??? In Sweden we pay around $1,50 per litre :(




Soooooooooooooooooooooo?
