I took a couple quick pics of my two running classics. It's been a slow day at work so i got my newest project running and I must say its pretty nice for six hundred bux. I paid too much for the shitty one and only paid 600 for the nicer one. So far all it's needed is an exhaust and a battery and an alternator belt. The exhaust came off another parts car that had already paid for itself in seat switches.
The series two is a pic from tuesday at the top of mountain lake.

I can run E85 in the pickup, but here, it's not that cheap, more like 2.39.... I get about 18% less MPG on E85, so, I watch the price of E85 against the price of regular... if it's over 20% less, then it's worth it, but if it's not, I'd just stick to regular. Also, I'm not big on pushin' E85 until they can get cellulostic ethanol up and running, so that it won't push food prices higher.

Still $4 in the fine city of Chicago.

Thanks Democratic machine for allowing Federal, State, AND COUNTY AND CITY taxes on the go juice.

I got gas for $2.47 the other day.

I just fear the oil companies slowing oil production, the economy bouncing back, and having $10/gal fuel.


$600 for a Range Rover. What a deal!

I've been hoping for 1.99 here, but 2.38 is the latest here.


Heard one of the pundits say that a 1mb/d cut would slow up the drop, but a 2mb/d cut would quickly put a hard floor on the drop and stop any further slide. OPEC went w/ a 15mb/d cut, which means it should pretty much slow up the drop in crude, and gas could level out in the low 2's.....

Maybe.....
