Yea gas prices are getting crazy!! :cursin: I don't drive my car nearly as much as I used to (even though it does get nearly 30 mpg in town) cuz of the rising prices. I just take the bike everywhere unless the weather is bad, I'm going somewhere I don't want to leave the bike unattended, or I need to haul something or go shopping. Last time I filled the car up it cost $32.00... for an Accord!! Luckily now I only have to fill it up every couple weeks instead of every couple days like I used to.

I can't complain too much though... right now we're at about $2.55 for 93 ocatane.... talking to my friend in Los Angeles last night and he said it was $2.89 for 91, and his turbo Supra requires just that :nonod:

Yea yea yea, I know, you got it much worse :crazy: I'm just sayin, for a rather small car that's a pretty good chunk. I remember when I could fill this very car up for $12.... that was about 6 years ago and gas was $0.97/gal... I do miss those days

Yeah I know!!! Can you start charging more or somin?
I already do.
Its called a fuel surcharge.
When the national averages stay up for so long.
= I loss part of that charge.
= less money in my pocket for the same job.
= :cursin: :cursin: :cursin: :cursin:

I figured...but can't you just adjust your fuel surcharge so you don't get ape raped!!
You can but companies get pissed about that shyt and start looking elsewhere for more "competitive" pricing, etc. driving the prices down and everyone crazy.. Cheap bastards..
