I'd take almost $3/gallon any day. The current average price in California is $4.07 and in many areas, it is around $4.20-$4.25/gallon.

I hope all you Democratic voters will have the money for all the extra expenses the libs will give you, and you can kiss your stimulus goodbye, it will be gone in no time!

Gas is going to incinerate the planet, don'tcha know?

You're supposed to be buying little electric eco boxes, don'tcha know?

In fact, when I floor it, I can actually see the gas gauge going down. LOL. But some things you just have to laugh off as the cost of ownership.

I mean, it's essentially a big brick being pushed through the air by a twin turbo V8, soooooooo....

I remember the first time we drove it, I said to my wife, "No 6000 lb box should be able to accelerate like this. It feels like we are breaking the laws of physics."

The gas tax hike is meant to hurt the poor and middle class.
