Guest HBK16 Report post Posted March 24, 2003 For a tank of gas!!! FUCK! This fucking war has to end. I use to pay like $10.00 for a full tank but now that we are in a fucking war its twice as much. Fucking Iraq. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted March 24, 2003 I paid $32.67 today to fill my tank up. Granted, it was 17.4 gallons of a 20 gallon tank, and I get only Premium (Patrick must nurture the 307), but still, quit yer whinin'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted March 24, 2003 I don't think I've paid $10.00 for a fill-up in five years. The war hasn't really had much effect on gas prices so far. Most stations around here have actually lowered their prices a few cents per gallon since the war began. Also, the price of crude oil has fallen about $8 a barrel in the last two months, so the prices should fall once that oil is refined and makes it way into production. Iraq isn't the problem here, but getting Venezuela back up and running would be nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use to pay like $10.00 for a full tank but now that we are in a fucking war its twice as much. Fucking Iraq.

Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted March 25, 2003 I paid something like $26.82 for 17 gallons or so today. At $1.65 a gallon, it was the cheapest stuff around my house. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted March 25, 2003 Ten Dollars? Don't you live outside of DC, Tom? And what kind of car do you drive?I know gas isn't that cheap in VA, at least not in Hampton Roads. Actually, I'm a lot closer to Baltimore than I am to DC. What I said was that I *haven't* paid $10 for a fill-up in at least five years, meaning they've all cost more than that. Back when I drove a Neon and the 87 octane gas was around a buck a gallon, it was all good in the hood. I currently drive a Maxima SE, and the premium gas around here runs around $1.75 a gallon, so my fillups tend to be $20-25. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted March 25, 2003 If I get that job at Dillards tomorrow, I'll be pulling in $9 an hour, so gas prices won't worry me nearly as much as they did. (basks in his heretofore unimaginable potential new wealth) Hey, when you were a bagger at a grocery store and the highest you got was $6.70 after over two years, you consider starting as a menswear salesman at $9 a big deal.

Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted March 25, 2003 Here gas is approximately $2.08 for the cheapest grade. (Sacramento, CA). $10 used to fill up my tank even if rode in on fumes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mr. Slim Citrus Report post Posted March 25, 2003 Hmmm, we seem to have the same taste in cars, Tom, except mine were probably older than the models you drove/drive around... Regular costs $1.82 on base, which is about as cheap as you're going to get anywhere in HI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
