Ditto!

P.S. Sometimes I think those are the best ones!
When I was 14 years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned 21, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last 7 years!

Hay Foose...what's with the baby s--- green, and the hot wheels wheels ?
Another mess by the custom car crowd.
One of the best styled car ever built and this guy thinks he can do better.

Here at my local the price dropped to $2.35 couple of days ago for gas, and $2.99 for diesel, lowest either has been in a couple of years.
Temps here have been around 15-19 for lows. No snow yet...except for a very mild dusting about 10 days back. Dry as a bone, no moisture expected until Thursday, when it will be around 57 so no snow then either.
We need to get a few inches and have it sit around for a few days...kill off some of those infernal ticks, fleas and such.

It's actually gone up here; it was $2.48; and over the past few weeks it's managed to creep up to  $2.62 as of this morning.  :crybaby2:

over here it's about $1.65.

per Litre that is....

that makes approximately $6.20/gln

thats for the 10% ethanol crappy, carb eating, plugs fouling, stinky cheap stuff.

premium is 7.50.

I will not get political on here.... :003:  :deadhorse:

We are in the 2.60 - 2.80 range here in AL.  Getting ready to head to the "Frozen Tundra" tomorrow morning.  Also off the grid!  Brother-in-law has no computer, no cable, no "I" phone..... 1200 miles, weather looks wet, no snow for the drive.  Couple of stops on the way.

So, here's wishing all of you a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Being honest I don't pay attention to gas prices. I fill up every couple of months and don't remember from one to the next. 77 here tomorrow and staying there through Christmas. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!

Fill up every couple of months? wow. I fill up 2-3 times a week, it's a good thing my Outback gets 32 mpg. I put 240 miles on it yesterday, just a nice day for a drive into NM, but not too far. I've got a driveshaft center support bearing going out on it, so it may be down for a week or so until my mechanic can get to it.

It's about 1 mile to the grocery store (and Home Depot) and my favorite watering hole is between here and there. Lol! My wife does most of the running around, she gets gas at Costco which is about 2 miles from the house. Her car is a 2017 QX50, my "parts getter" is a 2009 SLK 350. We get 20+ mpg in both cars running 93 RON.

I actually filled up today at 199 9/10 ! Cool. never thought I'd see that again.

The long time members of this forum will remember Bob Lee, the moderator previous to me. He had one of the top '57's anywhere...... tons of money poured into it for work by SoCal's top shops. I found out today, via a Facebook posting by him, that the car is no longer. He was in a bad accident with it on Veteran's day a year ago. He was returning from a car show that he and his friend Rick had done. The car apparently was totalled, and bob spent 9 days in the hospital with a jaw broken in 3 places. They had to reset his lower teeth.
 I was kinda reading between the lines assuming the car was totalled. He did specifically say he did not have it anymore because of the accident.  We're all obviously glad he survived, it's a shame he had to go thru what he did, and a shame such a beautiful car apparently is no longer.
That's all the details I have.

Sad... :'(
Any pictures of his car Rich ? (before the accident)

I'll look in a little bit.taking care of a spammer right now.
That was a bunch of spam!!! Thanks again Hugh, for letting me know. I hadn't been on the forum today. I hope I got them all, and I did ban him.
