Right now we are at $1.30 a litre(near Toronto,Canada), which is roughly 4.92 a gallon. Feeling it for sure!

I have a 93 Nissan Altima I drive to and from work (40+ miles round trip) that gets about 27 MPG. There is no way I could afford driving the JK everyday. I was at the dealership yesterday talking to my buddy/salesman and someone was trading in their 2010 Rubicon for a Patriot and their reasoning was gas prices. He was telling me people have been coming in a lot the last few weeks trying to trade off trucks, jeeps, suv's, etc looking to get into something more fuel efficient. Told me they sold over 40 Ford Focus' since the 1'st of February. If something doesn't happen to get prices back down (which I don't see happening) I figure you will see a lot of used JK's sitting on the lots.

Default Painful Reminders

I felt it today when I filled up for the first time since taking ownership of my JK.
I put $74.00 into it @ $3.899/Gal. And I also know that by the Summer, the
Price of Unleaded Regular Gas will Exceed $5.00/Gal.

I gotta get my '03 Harley ready for riding season...and beyond. Looks like I'll
be doing a lot of bad weather riding this year.
