An interesting view of things. Thanks Stan.

I guess I will be filling up in Johnson County (I live on the Tarrant/Johnson border) next time I need gas; it's a lighter shade of yellow than Tarrant!

Although, there isn't much at all in Johnson other than ranches and gas stations!

DAMN!!! everyone around me is 2.95ish not worth driving anywhere :x

god damn. 3 bucks a freking gallon. I think I might drive to Montana to fill up.

Time for me to buy a 80's crotch rocket...

Interesting map. God it must have taken ages to do that. I live near Palm Beach and yeah prices seem to concur with regular. I pay 3.15 for premium at Mobile 1 (gotta support McLaren team right?) and damn I floor my car to 11mpg constantly. Think I ought to drive slower from now on.

11mpg 200hp V6's?

LMFARTFO... :P

wrong. 270hp 4 Cylinder K04 Turbo at 4500rpm ;)

how many MPG do you get? 5? must be hell for you these days.

Oh my bad.. a 270bhp 4 cylinder.

My 480bhp 5.7l V8 returned an average of 12.0 mpg after a 150 mile thrashing through the woods.. speeds ranged into the 160mph range - with most of time being spent in the 5000 to 6000rpm range.

I am guessing 4 cylinder turbos are not the best powerplants out there :)

6.0 liter twin turbo'd pushrod V8's are the best powerplants; even with worse economy :wink: :P

Give a thought for us Brits, you are at just over $3.30 a GALLON,

We're at £1 a litre.

A gallon would cost us £3.70.... Thats way over $5 :(

even among the people who love the Vector W8; they believe so much false information that was published about it... just look at what foxfour was trying to tell me in the other thread...

It's interesting; but I can't be beaten into submission on anything but its style... i'll win every other "battle" lol
