thankfully my commute from the countryside to my workplace in a small town is only 13 miles each way - all the same it would still cost me about $12.00 if I had a srt-8 ouch.

Make your mind up time folks.

p.s. Unleaded is currently $6.50 per gal in the UK - See, you feel better already.
I don’t think people are bitching about their cars getting poor gas mileage. I could be wrong, but people I know feel they’re being given the big “kielbasa up the bum” by a multitude of sources, both domestic and international. I never complain about either one of my “gas gulpers” getting poor mileage. It would be foolish to do so. There are other sources of anger the public has and it isn’t about their gas mileage.

Ok NOW who's doing the complaining?... MTC--"ouch"



It costs me $14 a day to park and train to work and that's cheap!





P.S. If you had an SRT-8 it would probaby cost double since it's get about 6-7 MPG when "properly" driven.

Hi srt8danno

there isn't much of a campaign for EVEN HIGHER fuel prices on these pages that I can see.

Please believe me when I sa that there is no appetite at all in the UK for the way that we are shafted at the pumps every time we juice up. The liars that run the governmet pretend that the extra taxes go towards healthcare/education, it does not.

MTC

p.s. I thought that you guys were going to start getting cleaner diesel in 2006, not 2008 ?

Hi vvv90

but its all relative. If your doing a 50 mile commute, then $14.00 doesn't seen to bad.

p.s. BTW my head hurts, please stop hitting me.

Shaved Puzzy doesn’t look very happy. Must have to pay a gas bill. (Thinly veiled attempt to stay on topic)
