Default Let's all trade our cars in for an Insight!

This price is insane. I don't think any of us can drive our Subie at these prices, espeically those who have a Rex. Wish I have an Insight or a TDI right now.

Dude, you have no clue how much that car have appealed to some of my friends, and personally, I'm quite impressed. There's just something strangely appealing when you can easily hose the interior down... especially when the interior is so roomy and the seats can fold flat into a bed...

Speaking of gas mileage, I am happy to report that my scoob have gone from as thirsty as a 302cid to being as thirsty as a 289 after the ECU recall was performed. Good times!, as TMR will happy say.

As for Mr. Bush, Mr. Bin Laden, and Mr. Hussen, here's a suggestion to solve your problems- Get a room with good sound insultation, each carrying mass quantities of KY Jelly and a Costco pack of condoms, and shove it.

$81.9 for gas my yellow arse.

Well, I can afford the gas, but I'm definitely not happy about it. So it's because of the tension in the middle east I take it?

Oh, and I don't care how practical the Honda Element is, it's an SUV and a particularly ugly one at that.

BTW Sunny, I'm not that surprised to hear you mention TMR, good times, seats folding flat into a bed, and hosing out the interior all in the same post, but wasn't your friend Fuzz there too?

If you fill up every two weeks the increase would amount to about 15$ per month. I think the strike in Venezuela also has something to do with the price increase in gas price.

Fortunately for me, but unfortunate for those who are interested, only the folding seats and hosing out the interior appeared in the same context Don't any of you think you can get a piece of my arse now.

Oh god!!! MENTAL IMAGE NO GOOD!!

On the note of the Element, it's a cool car but a 4 banger is just not enough power.

On the note of the gas price. Yes, the very possible war is a factor plus the strike down in South America is driving the price up. The ironic thing is that USA is using more Iraqi oil since the strike. If US is going to war, they better end it quick.
