Fam...it might be time to think about trading down to something more fuel efficient. I got rid of Lincoln LS a few years ago and copped a Camry. Shit saved me chunk of change in gas over the long run
No doubt. I'm thinking about getting an Accord. Fuck it.
Might want to hurry and unload that damn thing. I'm seeing more and more on those big cars with for sale stickers on em.
-VG
I have to use premium too. My car gets 20/gallon, I put on 15,000 miles a year, I'm a full time student and I manage just fine. You drive a sports sedan, I drive a sports car. And I whip that shit.
I don't see how a MD is struggling to fill up the tank.

oil is about to hit a hunned a barrel.. once that happens we all gonna be payin over $4 for 87.....
fuck the GW Bush for ignoring this shit...
I'm not struggling i'm complaining. I have a 4000k a month mortgage and 600 a month car note along with school loans and other bills. Just because I have the money does not mean I enjoy blowing it.
4,000 a month mortgage. what do you live in a 800k home or have a 25% interest rate???
i call bullshit on all accounts. people who have 4,000 a month mortgages and 600 car notes wont bitch about how they cant afford 4.00 a gallon gas (specially on a message board). stop living in a dream world or above your means fuck face
You're an idiot who cannot read. Show me where I said I cannot afford 4 dollars a gallon you dumb fuck. You act like it's ok to get robbed if you have the money. Why the fuck is gas out here 4 dollars a gallon. I live in a 700k Condo with $450 HOA fees, and my property taxes are high as fuck so before you come in here with some bullshit. Learn how to fucking read you jealous bitch.
I'm not pokin' or makin' fun of you Truth, but that's what happens when you live in Cali, especially the Bay. Believe me other members, I'm not sayin' your condo isn't nice Truth, but for somethin' that runs like between $175-$250K in some parts of the East Coast you're payin' between $700-$1M in Cali, depending on the area. Truth, imagine the ninjas livin' in San Fran in that overpriced gay-infested cesspool are payin'...I love my hometown, but I'll be damned if the cost of livin' isn't a travesty. Yeah, go and get a Camry hybrid...that ought to save some $$$.
On another tip, are you always angry Truth? I'd be a little hessitant if you were assessin' my health like that in the doctor's office!![]()
When I first came out here it was bad, very bad, but wasn't this bad. Now might be a good time to buy for a new home buyer but it's too late for all that. I was renting while I was in Finishing my residency trying to save some money for a crib. Even then rent was like 1000 for a 1 bedroom. The thing is back east shit's just mad depressing which is why I left. jersey is depressing. The weather the scenery. Just had to get away. I'm not angry, It's just I get attacked on here 24-7 so I'm on the defensive.
No I feel you on all fronts...simps like attackin' smart people, that's why they're simps!
Yeah, I'm in grad school in PITTSBURGH, one of the top 10 most depressing places for black people! What part of jersey you from? I think North Jersey isn't that bad to live in...but the realtors are startin' to get smart and drive up the prices 'cause it's an easy commute to NYC. Still not as expensive as Cali...
I heard Pittsburgh is the worst son. LOL 300 Days of clouds and only like 65 days of sun or somethingI'm from South Jersey, Camden which is basically an extension of Philly.
Umm no offense, but are you guys sure that your cars are REQUIRED to use premium or is it RECOMMENDED? I have heard and read that the use of regular gas in a premium gas RECOMMENDED car won't kill it. It will only cause it to loose SOME of it's performance and fuel economy. The computer brain/sensors in the car will compensate for the lower octane. Even REQUIRED vehicles CAN run on lower octane gas if one keeps the speed under 65, stop fast accelerations and listens for engine knocking.
I'd do some searches about your particular vehicle's engine on regular gas if I were you. Might save a little money.
this is my last post for the night...but I got one word for my Bay Area peeps... BART!!!![]()

Fuck the bullshit. I'm bout to cop a 1970 Volkswagon Beetle in this bitch. Drop the front. Spinnin rims and throw a whaletail on that bitch. 50 miles per gallon and 50 miles per hour top speed.
I Live in San Francisco, on the other side of the bridge, and i dont even drive my CLS no more. Its $3.55 over here. I get better milage outta the X3. Damn shame it costs so damn much out here.
put it this way....if u have a high performance car....and u put low octane gas in there........ur car drives sluggish when u try to speed past someone u will just kinda sit there and then eventually build speed.
It makes a huge difference.........but what they dont tell u is Every Single Gas station has the exact same Gas. The only difference is the Aditives like Techron
