There is no use complaining about it unless you're gonna do something about it. To the majority of us, gas is a necessity and we are going to use it no matter what price it is. $1.50/L is still less than a bottle of water that most ppl buy.

I use 94 in the race car.....So what it's an extra $5 a fill up or so....Yah they're ------ us but what are you gonna do. Look at it this way...Is it anything you can control?? No...so then no use worrying or getting pissed about it.

hehe, how many of you buy starbucks?
for those who do, just cut down one less of a cup and that'll compensate your $5 lost for gas.
94 in the summer car, nothing but 87 in the beater lol. or 91-94 when they run out of the shitty stuff lol

LOL .. i didn't open the thread to cry about gas prices. personally I don't care about the gas prices because we can't do anything about it so why stress. I just thought that the picture was funny and quite a rhetoric reality and worthwhile sharing it with T.I. members. That's all.

YAY gas prices going higher. I really don't give a crap its necessity like im not gonna stop driving and walk everywhere like some poor hobo LOL. Maybe if you work less than 5km from your work sure, but otherwise no thanks.

Well, 4 engines acorss 2 cars (DA and DC) in the past year.
Both stock engines blew a cylinder. I know if Dave sees this he's gonna say it's because it's the way I drive...pfft, I drive like an old person.
And then I hydro-locked the b20 I had swapped into the DA then unswapped and swapped into the DC by going through a huge puddle, so I was forced to buy another b20 and swap it into the DC (for the 2nd time)
Now i'm running good and avoiding puddles
All thanks to Dave by the way, who has continuously been there for me...without him i'd be taking the bus.

Fast and Furious style right? Is your DA low enough to the ground that you can drive underneath the truck?

Its low enough I can drive under that pole whenever a train comes by. But I think we are going to need 3 spoon engines and a couple of motec exhaust systems.

I agree. We also should look into doing a group buy on shitty actors. They'll cleverly disguise our true intents with their horrible abilities to make robbing trucks look easy.
