LOL... well I don't think this could be because of the gas prices... =/

It gets probably around 20ish mpg :( :(

Good bye SXT Neon. ;)

Talking with the owner of the dealership tomorrow about parking my SRT on his lot to sell it. I'll tell him I want 19.. so he will probably sell it for 21... (hopefully)... Demodding it this week :cool:

When the SRT is sold...A shop in Vegas will be finding me a nice CRX for sale.. and going to build me a nice b16 motor with forged internals and what not for boost... and I'll ship it up here BEFORE next summer hopefully ;)

I'll have pics later...

a quad cab pickup truck..ya might want to rethink buying that since gas is going over 3 dollars a gallon and I heard a nasty little rumor that in GA that gas is almost 6 bucks a gallon there.

Yeah dude, I don't know why anyone would want a pickup right now. Unless you work construction for a living and need to haul **** all the time. Even then, get a friggin' trailer.

I need to convince my parents to sell their trucks.

You need a winter vehicle, that's why you got the 4x4, right? Just get a Legacy or Outback instead...more room inside, drives like a car, but still has AWD, better gas mileage, better brakes, safer in crash tests...I don't know how much off-roading you have in mind, but I bet it's a lot less than you think, and even then, I think the Outback could probably tackle a good portion of it ;)

eh the gas mileage is good enough for me.... it's not gonna be the main ride.. once I get my little CRX.. I'll drive it daily.. I'll drive this in the winter.. and in the summer it'll be a tow rig ;) In the winter.. I drive to work.. to home.. to the grochery store.. (work is 1 mile away.... grochery store is half mile away) ;)

Buy some good walking shoes. :)

Pics in the paper today gas in GA is over $6 a gallon.

Between my wife and I.. I think I can afford gas...haha


3000 + a month income...

Bills

Truck $600
Insurance $265
Cable/TV/Etc $100


$2500 to food and gas... I think we can manage. :lol:

PS: Hopefully the SRT is sold soon.. otherwise knock another 400 off the spending money.. but still $2100 to spendo n food and gas... plenty enough.

90% of Georgia's gas came from pipelines that have been shutdown since the hurricane. I wouldn't expect it to become to much of a trend.

That is true, and I hope not!!

haven't those people been gouged enough now the have to pay 6 bucks a gallon, now i understand that most of there supply was cut off from the hurricane but come on thats total bs. even the pink elephant up here is up to 2.72 a gallon and i've seen it as high as 2.89 at some of the shell stations, i think its about time to buy a bicycle or start a carpool in the morning if the price of gas keeps going up :furious:

What the mfg says a car/truck gets is WAY different than what I bet you'll get in the winter.
Less than 10mpg in thge winter for a F-150 driven by my wife, would be less if I drove it :lol:
Here is what I ordered right after realizing that

Still costs over $30 to fill but not having to do that as much.
By the way MY 2.5RS gets a constant 22mpg no mater how I drive unless going to Ancortown then it's almost 30mpg
Cheers

With home that close why buy anything?

You said on AKMS you were thinking about a jeep wrangler too. You should wait till next year to see if they offer the tubo diesel in the Wrangler, that would average mid 20's mpg.

Well.. the Jeep had no damn rebates at all... and the truck had a ton ;)

More luxury in a truck too.. power everything.. heated seats... etc...etc.. ;)

i'm thinking of trading the car in for something with better gas mileage... i can work and go to school and not have to lose an entire paycheck towards the car... then when i graduate college i can get the new 2008 STi:lol:

seriously, with all the driving i do in a day, something more practical would be good.

I've been running the cobb economy map, works great. I still enjoy the cars road feel without all the power. boost is a solid .05 , never more. lots of advance timing too, tip in is great. just an idea for people rather then selling ;)

gas is expensive... but don't think you won't take a big $$ hit selling/trading newish cars.
