lovable gas guzzlers!

Man , I really like to take a cruise in my old truck, but lately the old lady is saying why should we take that big truck?It gets terrible gas mileage!lets take the little car.I just go along and say OK your right it doesnt make sense to drive the really cool big old gas guzzler, lets just drive the crappy little 4 banger instead.She says OK.while walking away from my old blue 72 I seem a little discouraged . lets face it $2.50 a gallon for the low grade fuel. Truck gets 9 MPG downhill with the BB.Little crappy 4 banger gets around 30 MPG. do the math.seems like the short trips have become real short trips in my truck lately.When will the relief (prices) ever come down?I am thinking of putting a freekin sail on my truck!That would be cool with a big chevy bow tie on the sail.I better hurry and patent that one eh!
