On the water, how hard is English to comprehend? Not only are you using it all day (thus eventually needing fuel), but many folks keep their boats in the water.
ON the water does not mean on a trailer. kthxbai!

And that, my friend, is why I only do short bursts of speed. We all learned when the gas per gallon jumped from $0.73 to $3.65, that it's best to run at about 3.1K RPM (30mph) instead of 5.7K RPM (75mph). If you do the math, at $0.73/gal. it only cost us $30.66 to fill the Donzi instead of the now needed $153.30. Just another reason to love the 90's. (My calculations are all done with the portable gas tanks instead of the 40gal tank. That's what we typically fill them up with instead of down by the water. DNR hates it, too.)

Here,its gotten up to $4.30,but it went down last month to somewhere near $3.65 and up.I drive different cars every other week(mostly big trucks),and I never even have enough money to even pay to get it half a tank.I have one thing to say,"Chevy's,Dodges,and some Ford trucks are always bad on gas,even when you upgrade or do maintence alot".My Maxima is and will always be good on gas,for some reason.Its a v6,and I drive fast and hard,but still its good on gas.A full tank will get me a week to a month of driving(all depends on where I go,if I do just a couple jobs,then ir will last me a couple weeks).
Sorry for all those paying close to the hundereds on gas for a big truck.If you dont need to use a big truck,then get a gas friendly car,and use the big truck when needed the most. That is true theoriganalRiD3R1967 (I seen it on mythbusters),but you will have to be like a inch or smaller away form the back of the truck,and its more like 10%-20% gas saving.If a semi truck stops,your screwed.

There's a guy around here that always sells for 50 cent cheaper than the lowest in the area. So today, he sold at $2.96.
Yes, you read that right: $2.96 Not a drop of gas left after 10AM. Don't worry. By the time you can drive, you'll be broke after 1/16th a tank.

Lmao. Honda's gonna make a killing. 50mpg before vtec or the thought of Hybrid. A real Honda Hybrid (Do they make hybrids?) would make a killing.. Then again, people have been hitting 160mpg in a Prius... Gas isn't that bad, if people slowed down and took the speed limit as THE limit, they would be fine... Quote:
$4.00 is cheap compared to Europe. Europe's been sitting on $10 a gallon for years (However, parts of South America are at $0.12/gallon..)... It's not bad. People just need to learn to drive. http://finance.yahoo.com/family-home...S.-Is-So-Cheap ^^Ironicly, that was posted on a CRX Forum. CRX's get 35mpg+..

Seriously Sweed...you're JUST now noticing gas prices going up? wtf? lol. I've been noticing that for YEARS
As for driving habits, higher gas prices just means I'll have to make more money. I'd rather drive a fast car and spend money on gas than getting drunk or partying. I'll light myself on fire before I step foot in a hybrid pos.

None of you have concerns until you drive a GMC 1500 5.0L V6, with a 400lb trailer thats been mis-firing three of its spark plugs for the last two months and has a leaking head gasket (not to menthion teh broken YOK (SP?) In the back and messed up right rear leaf spring.
I love how the kid with a 2cycle CRX started this thread... EDIT: oh and BLT, no what shows the world sucks is people stockpilling rice. Whats funny is that The US used to throw corn into the ocean because they had too much food. And this is not only 15years ago... Last edited by meme405; 05-04-2008 at 12:58 AM.. |

First of all a 5.0 is a 305 V8, second a truck only running on about half of its cylinders would never beable to even move a trailer, third if you had a broken yoke your not going any where. And finally what are you really trying to say none of that makes any sense. I also forgot to mention a CRX has a four stroke engine like all cars built after the 70's Last edited by jimmythekid1; 05-04-2008 at 10:09 AM.. |

Once the truck is up to speed and has already gained momentum that trailer isn't much of a burden, but of course it depends on the size of the trailer. But it can be done. |
