The news just said that it will probably hit $5.00 a gallon for regular 87 by the 4th of July. So premium will probably be like $5.20. I wish I still had my Civic right about now.

dang...

would it be wise to get a gas credit card, since they offer money back for every fill up.

Welcome to the present

I payed $4.63 for 91 today. Seems to be the average around here. We're not that far off canadian prices anymore.

*sighs* just sucks when your day (well at least for me) is now dictated by whether or not "its worth it or not"

can't just drive/cruise for the heck of it...don't go to friend's place or anywhere else because can't justify how much it costs just to get there and come back

yea you gotta "pay to play"... but we're not even talking about "playing" here...usually that saying is for modding but this is what everyone has to go through.. g35drivers and all other drivers, just some more than others
