I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

When I get gas I don't even look at the price. I know I need gas and theres nothing I can do about it. There is no way gas prices will ever go down. The only way is to not use it and with the econemy rapidly inflating and being so dependent on oil, its most likely not going to happen. I know GM has a plant somewhere around my area where they are working on a hydrogen powered car but its all top secret and no one knows when there going to unvail their design.

Same here. When gas started hiking up a long while back, I noticed it... But anymore, I just pull into the Shell station and pull out the wallet. Getting kind of off topic, but not too much... All of the places that are cheaper price wise, all suck. If it's not a name brand gas station (i.e. Exxon/Texaco/Shell/etc.) and something like an Ingles, QP, etc. they mix all of the left over gas from all of the different name brand places, along with more BS additives. It sucks to pay more, but there are too many horror stories lately of gas that's been so diluted that people have to drain the tank completely, clean injectors/new filter etc. and it's not worth it.

Anyhow, I digress. Like Builtb18b1 said, I never pay attention to it anymore I just get gas and go on. It's not worth worrying myself to death over, even though it does suck. From the gas light on to full I've spent $52.00 even before filling up my Prelude. Oh well. Try not to let it trouble you so much (even though it's hard not to...)

Same here, unfortunately. I do make a point to avoid gas stations that only advertise their 87 octane price, since they usually jack the price between grades more than the competition.

Who really cares about global warming or whatever it really is. I live on this planet and I drive my car. Thats all I really care about. The planet is fucked as it is. There is no use trying to save it now. ;)
