| I think I'll soon need a second job just to pay for gas! | |

| I paid $2.13 for 91 octane the other day, and I'm sure the prices will go up still. | |

Needs to ba a diesel for the cooking fat..
But I know plenty of Range Rovers with the beautiful 3.5 litre V8 running LPG, and running well... | |

| we're at $1.89/gal, unleaded regular around here. the news said it was the third highest average in the nation, behind California & Hawaii. Would take public transit, if could. Try to do it on weekends whenever possible. | |

| $1.48 to $1.67 USD range here in D/FW area. (Depends on what day it is! Seen as high as $1.72!)
Went by a station the other day and it was $1.47 per gallon, drove by the same station 5 hours later and it was $1.52 per gallon! | |

| Well I paid a $1.43 at CostCo the other day seeing the rest of town is between $1.43 - 1.53 a gallon. I guess I feel lucky that I too am also living in Texas! My V6 Honda Accord gets pretty good gas mileage and I mostly do highway driving to and from work.
Kind of wondering why nobody in the Atlanta, Georgia area has not posted gas prices seeing they seem to have lower state taxes than the rest of us on gas? I know my brother who is in the Washington, DC area pays a bunch and also needs heating oil for his house and cooking.  I guess it would not be so bad if the economy would only turn around. A second part-time job mind come in handy if these Iraq and Korea issues don't change for the better ASAP. | |

TheJetta Wagon is kindof nice looking too, also heard lately that the Jeep Liberty will have a diesel for next year, maybe they will have a few left over to put in a TJ Rubicon | |

| All we have to do is boycott one major supplier and the price will collapse. |
