Nobody likes $4 a gallon gas, we just don't whine about it all the time.

But see I dont whine about gas prices, people make gas jokes towards me, i just address them, and play along with it.. Its like why should I complain about gas prices when I ride the metro everyday, and hardly ever drive both cars I have?

You used to do it all the time, and then it just became your catchphrase

The only thing worse than gas prices is hearing people complain about them.

Realistically, most folks drive about 12,000 miles a year.

At 20 mpgs, that is 600 gallons a year--at $4/gal, you are talking $2400 a year in gas.

That's $200 per month. At $3/gal, it's $150 a month.


$50 a month is noise relative to my other car costs. I spent more than that just over-nighting a single shipment from japan.

What if your big v8 gets 10mpg because you were hooning on the way home?

Theoretically speaking of course

then your insurance costs are probably going to be large enough that gas doesn't matter
