« on: 17 November 2008, 14:41:37 »

It snowed a bit this weekend, and the funnything is that on friday it was 55°  and yesterday it was 32° and snowed... and she handled amazingly with the Conti Rubber...

Well a few months back it was 4.50$/gal  1gal=3.875L

Now it dropped down to 1.80$ which is at what it cost back in 1999-2000... and thats the crazy part...

so its around 0.50$/L

i think our current rate is $1.80 to the £1, thereabouts, so you're effectively paying £1.00 for almost 4 litres, and we're paying probably £3.50 for 4 litres!!

DONE!!!

Well whatever the reason the gas prices dropped over 2.70$ in the last month... makes me wonder if by christams we will be getting it for around 1$... that would be insane...

I think it had something to do with election but thats just my opinion...

Otherwise its nice to fill up the tank for around 25$... used to take me close to 50$...  :P

The real shock will be when the price shoots back up to 5$/gal and then the fact that it will take 3x as much to fill it up will have people dropping dead from heart attacks left and right!... then insurance companies are gonna go bancrupt ... then more bail out money... and then... well I dont realy wanna think about whats gonna happen then!...  :-[

My scan gauge recorded 7172RPM!!! is that crazy or what? :-/
