Gas hit $90 a barrel today, and is rising at the pumps .02 cents a day! It will not be long until we see $4.00 a gallon. Hard to believe we are going into the slow season. Can you imagine what we will be seeing next summer?

All I can say is that I love when elections come around because gas goes way down. I think last time it got down to $2.05 at some costco I went to.
But the way I see it. Driving is a luxury and some times it can cost a lot. But it does make me want to buy a diesel truck and try bio fule.

4 bucks a gallon.. haha. i wish i was paying that.
currently i'm paying about 17 soles(6 bucks per gallon) in peru. spend about 20 american dollars every two days just in gas.. Sucks, cause that's what one pays for a high class hoe here.

We need to find other sources of fuel. People here(Peru) have started using a combination of Gas and gasoline as a source of fuel and are getting about 90 miles per gallon after doing a relative inexpensive adaptation for their vehicles.

don't know man. it's not really mixing. It's two different systems. They still pump regular gasoline.. but have a gas tank(not liguid) in their trunk. Like people who mount compressors in their trunk. guess, they use the gasoline to start the car and gas to drive around? i'm not sure. all cabs use that.
It costs about 500 american dollars to hybrid your car. and it's supposed to be safe. I would still be weary of possible rear accidents.
I also stopped by a different on the street store. and they fab turbo kits from the ground up for less than 500 american dollars
People in 3rd world countries are really talented and labor is cheap.

we got a flat bed truck at my work that runs on a mix of propane and gasoline. My boss won't sell it because it' gets a thousand miles a gallon, even though we never use it.

i thought propane was just like nitrous for diesels, and if it is propane its not very safe and a leak and an open flame and you got a massive explosion.

Propane has been used forever in Mexico. They've been selling Honda Civics here for a while that run on natural gas too.

Gasoline isn't as explosive, its the lesser of two evils.
