The one I usually go to is on the way to work is the Chevron off Hwy 6 and Old Richmond (in between Bissonnet and West Airport) Geez, I hear ya on Westheimer prices.....man All in favor of just doing meet/greets rather than "cruises" for HGR raise your hand! Hahaha

considering we have it "lucky" here compared to other places I'm not going to complain too much.

Can't hardly afford to drive my G... I posted last month that it cost me $50 to fill up....those were the days! Now its gonna be $60-$65 or maybe $70. Hybrid here I come. Our uncle Sam is offering a $3500 tax CREDIT next year to buy a hybrid. I'm seriously considering the Honda Accord 6 cylinder Hybrid, 265 HP along with the electric to get pretty good gas mileage. I'm totally bummed. And to top off my grief, the wife's Maxima looks like it needs a new automatic transmission. Time for a new ride.
