The cheap stuff is about $3.25 a gallon with high octane running close to $4 in this area.

A few weeks ago regular was $2.60

Before comparing consider that there is many, many more miles of highways in the US compared to other countries so from a tax perspective the government makes more money via volume.

My van (which gets 24 mpg, the Spirit pulls in 33 mpg, both turbocharged of course) a fill up is $44, now the same fill up $55.25

So that's once a month pulling an extra $44-$55 out of the wallet along with the prices of everything else going up.

Yup, I use to average 400+ miles a week driving, deliverys, shipping, daughter to school, etc.

I'm glad I converted the van to 5-speed, it use to get 17 with the automatic  Tongue

I'm considering selling my 2004 Toyota Tacoma and getting a Motorcycle. I don't use the truck much since I have a company car (weekends). The weather here in San Diego I can ride pretty much year round. Could borrow the wife's RAV4 during bad weather. Plus, I can drive in the carpool lane on a cycle Wink

I think I talked myself into it. Now if I can only convince the wife Undecided

If anyone has a problem with the 60 meg STB1.MPG let me know, it looks like on some of the DVD discs that file is damaged for some reason.

Must be a credit or debit payment so I had to deny it from my personal account.

Go ahead and send it to my regular e-mail address Rolo.

For some reason my Sony DVD burner/Nero damages the stb mpg even when the file is zipped! I'm totally baffled by this.

The file will be hosted on a server for download.

Some things just won't work.
Crystal Caves for example (DOS game;~1992).
Burn it to CD with an AOpen CDRW* and the exe file is corrupt  Roll Eyes
Compressed (ZIP) did work in this case  Smiley

*Only tested with an AOpen CDRW drive. Don't know if other drives/media have the same problems
