Ha ha, isn't that the truth. I just put $60.00 in my '03 yesterday and it didn't fill it up even though it was not all the way empty either.

well doc you are half right we spend all the extra $ for parts and then we rob a couple $ from the kids piggy bank just to drive it around the block to make sure the parts we just installed work correctly and then they go back in the garage so that we have bragging right at work with the guys

I'm pretty sure the gasoline in my trucks tanks cost me less than $1.50 a gallon. Of course it is over 2 years old and will have to be dumped out before I can put in fresh gas.

we all are complaining about the gas $'s so i have a question how many of us have decided that while driving the truck that we really can't afford to prove what we have in the engine bay????? just the other day i had a guy in a newer dodge swb trying to pick a fight with my truck so i burped on the throttle a little and at the light he tore off screaming like a mad man i just eased off through the intersection lmao!!!!!!!

Try running nothing less than premimium in your tanks. I filled up both tank in my truck at $2.59 when it was cheap before the hurricane hit and was $80. I'm afraid to see what it's going to cost me now
