btw not all small cars are uncomfortable anymore.


Where do you get these ideas?

I normally have a 5 minute wait at the gas pump near my house when I get off work, and a 2 or 3 minute wait anywhere else.  If everyone boycotts tomorrow I'll fill up every vehicle I have and not have to worry about sitting in my car for 5 minutes waiting to fill up.  NO ONE IN OKC BUY GAS TOMORROW!! :mad:

Hey man!

  I just picked up an 01 Focus Wagon.  REALLY impressed so far.  But.. seem's like it (auto) ****s a little hard, especially downshifting.  Normal?  I'm used to auto-trans you can hardly feel when they shift.

lol.. shiFts

Consumer Reports. Go read them yourself.  Hey lada, tell me this. If your in the oil industry and your refinerys are running at 92 percent, and you are banking, why would you build more? So you have more refinerys? That equals higher capital costs, and it increases the supply of gasoline in the market, which will drive down the price.

Nothing once whatever superior alternative thats ridiculously expensive because of lack of research and reliance on petro-chemical produced materials is forced to the forefront.  It's coming, oil is not a renewable resource in the greater scheme of things.
