PSA: Gas prices hurt everyone and everything. It doesn't matter what type of car you drive.

OP isn't bitching about prices of everything. He is bitching about filling up his car being x amount, which is directly attributed to what his choice in vehicle is.

If he said something about the prices of food, for example, that is a different story.

My car is as opposite a SUV as you can get. Also, ask anyone in the Garage, my car is neither large or powerful...lol.

For some odd reason it does suck more than the highest gas guzzling SUV though. :hmm:

Well, then either A) your car needs some kind of maitnence or B) your car just needs replaced if you're complaining about how much to fill up.

Also, fogive me for saying SUV. I am out of it today and missed that in the thread. It might be a large vehicle, but it is not fuel efficient.

I bet mines is smaller than yours. :awe:
It's only a 1.3L. (lol)

No idea, I'm not a car guy. All I know is I fill up my car once a month for ~$38 and get 42mpg in town. Gas could go up another dollar and I'd still be under $50 per month.

But I would love to have a bigger vehicle. Winter is a bitch only having two smaller cars.

OP is really fucked up for having such a narrow vision.
I think Obama should make it mandatory for all the flabfucks to use bicycles.

This isn't a P&N discussion. This is a discussion about that dipshit America voted for. I am ashamed to be a Democrat. Idiots fell for a little bit of sweet talking.

It's the same style of sweet talking those Black Southern Baptist Reverends use to gather their sheeple. Funny how well it worked on the mostly Athiest Liberals. lol
I agree with you. He's an eloquent speaker (though relies a bit too much on the teleprompter) , and that's all he is.

Sorry, but presidents are judged based on their legacy, sometimes decades down the line. You cannot possibly know everything that's going on and you cannot possibly judge from the outside on what kind of leader he is or how good he is at his job without knowing things you cannot know.

Right now, he's just a president. We'll see in a decade whether he was a good one or a bad one.

What has he done for you lately? What has he done for the country? He's been in office long enough. I base my judgment on that.

Relies a bit too much on the teleprompter how? Every president uses a teleprompter for almost every speech. When you're as busy as they are, you don't have time to memorize every set of remarks you're going to give. (why would we even want our president wasting time on that?)

Who cares whose fault it is! Lets just mob the whole white house/congressional scene and splash cans of oil everywhere! It'll be fun.
