Schaden I'm driving a 307 also though it's just an ordinary 1,6XS; not enough km/year to make diesel profitable (We have special tax for diesel cars).

baaaa i drive 307 2.0 HDi and i think that consumption about 8l/100km is too high...

sometime when i drive mercedez Clk with 2.8l im having about 7l/100km.
when i drive  a long distance i have about 6l/100km with avg speed 150 kph

all in diesel


But we are just stupid bunch of Europains, whitch dont know how to make bussines

60% tax on gas?  No thank you  lada.     Keep your socialism.   In the states we drive more per person than you do also.

When gas gets expensive I can buy muscle cheap... when everyone drives econo boxes gas gets cheap again.  If hybrids come into widespread use I would encourage you all to drive em so that gas becomes cheap for my real cars.

so long as we don't get too kerry/european/socialist.

One of the few things you have said I agree with.

You mean like you?  I should post Cut & Pasted walls of text consisting of  others literary work and opinion? Or post links and a synopsis none of which you have any intention of reading. It's been done on the board here and at AGW by others several times already. All of which gets branded and replied to by the neanderthal-con and neo-con as "Bush is Hitler" "No blood for Oil,"  "diud you forget 9/11???!!! and "lies lies lies" - in other words the post and poster gets defamed and the message minimized

 With all that has transpired and been uncovered over the past year alone I'm amazed people like you still support the US administration, a veritable house of lies, so strongly.

 I don't need to do any research for you. I posted my firm opinion based on past deceptions & practices by US officials and oil corporations, on who is now in office, past legislation attempts by some of the heads of this administration and on who has headed certain corporations in the past.

worth repeating

Just keep on buying SUVs and pickups etc but please, do not ***** if you can't afford to buy gas for it

Ahh that's the beauty of America,  most of us can afford things people in other countries cannot.  You know, our standard of living is so much  higher than most of the rest of the world.
I think I'll pull out my gas guzzling 'vette and drive around aimlessly, because I can afford it.

ok, but could tell us how much healthcare and education costs in your part of the world?

[Toad]

LOL, get St. Santa to explain to you how he finally realized how much it costs in YOUR part of the world.

Here's a clue.. TANSTAAFL

Cheapest gas I saw in Phoenix was 2.15 last night.

[Steve]

Dune,

Yesterday I saw 3 different Q/T's at $2.13.

Do you have one in your part of town?

[_Schadenfreude_]

It's a simple question, how much does Healthcare insuarance cost for say a family of four per annum in the USA and how much would it cost to send two kids to college?

I fully realise that there's no such thing as a free lunch however I can afford the $200 a month for fuel so it's not a biggie.

[Dune]

I have a Sam's Club card.  I can get gas there for 2.09.  I was talking about your average chevron, texaco, circle k that I saw.

[Toad]

It depends.

Depends mostly on what health care plan you are using and what college/university you attend.

There is no one answer to either of those questions.

I can easily afford more than that for gas. At present I'm driving a big ole' pickup truck with a huge V-10. No strain as yet. I use the truck too... most of my driving in it is in support of training/trialing the dogs. Running around town I do in a smaller more efficient vehicle.

I'm probably going to get an even smaller, more efficient vehicle as well.

Jeez, life here is great. Four cars for three drivers.

Don'tcha just hate us?

But earlier in this thread, you said "I may have to get a loan for my next fill up."

One of these posts had to be a lie. So which is the real Steve? The bleeding heart pauper, or the nationalistic salamander?

One of them was a joke, Beatoff.  See if you can figure it out.
