GAS Prices
Gas prices are up lately they say they might hit three bucks this summer. It wont be like last year but will change your decision to buy or what motor you get.

I am not going to panic...you gotta pay to play, and I am leaning towards the V6 anywho.

The last I heard about it was that the oil refineries said they have to switch to summer blend gas which causes the rise of gas prices. Doesnt make sense to me but thats just something I read somewhere. Ill try to find it once I get out of school.

I'm glad I haven't been hearing about it, I think the news harping on it just makes things worse

As expected gas prices are going up. Will we pay...of course!

With all the excitement about this muscle car's great MPG, (and I like the fact too), it won't really do me any good. HAHAHAHA!

I just drove from Austin, Tx to NW OK, and my trip's average MPG was 16.....in my 04 GMC 5.3L.....I think I'll be just fine with my SS auto (shouldn't see under 20MPG highway)

I wouldn't mind paying those prices at all. You should see what we pay here in Alberta. $4.00 to $5.00 per gallon.
