    Thumbs down Filling my baby up!!

    Well, Yesterday filled up for 70.00 big ones..93 octane..17.5 gallons. I can careless about the price of gas... when I am filling up my baby..but when I fill up my Trooper it really pisses me off.

    We are being taken for a ride..by the big oil companies...look at there profit margins.. it is despicable!!!!

    I got you all beat... Diesel's going for $4.74+ /gal around these parts. Woooohooo!!! Of course, I get 38-40 MPG in my Jetta TDI which even at those prices still beats the pants off the average gasser... The VX gets filled up about once a month and sits in my driveway most of the time now.

    $100? Lucky sods! I had 1/8th of a tank left and it cost me £72.40 to fill up this afternoon. That's about USD145.00...
