Western MD we just hit $2.10 yesterday and no help in site.... thankfully I drive a 1992 F150 with a 6 cyl engine that gets good mileage....
Even though I was really into muscle cars in my youth (had a Dodge Charger with 426 and 3 dueces), I have smartened up a whole lot... why do we need to keep making 400+ HP vehicles to commute to work... My wife drives a Ford Aerostar with a 6 cyl.. gets us where we are going everytime and at the speed limit... would a big V8 do it better, not that I can see...
Got a call from a buddy yesterday.. he was in hog heaven... was on his way to pick up his new car... a fire engine red 400HP GTO... this guy lives 10 miles from his job... and it is not highway driving.. WHY THE HECK does he need a 400HP car... he goes to the Jersey shore a lot in the summer... and I know the traffic is not going to let him wind out that car... and neither are the State Police.. LOL... SO WHY... Midlife Crisis ??.. I told my wife for me Midlife Crisis is going to be a bigger lathe.. LOL.. might go all the way up to 3HP... not that I need it... LOL...
