Because gas is about to get REALLY expensive. actually, thats not entirely true, but the price of oil has jumped significantly in the last day and a half, and it will probably raise prices at the pump before this whole thing (lybia, egypt etc) is done.

Oh yeah, I'm waiting for that too. It's funny, even after that last oil shock a few years ago, I still see folks driving around in huge SUV's and pick-ups. People never learn.

Hmmm...if you guys are right prices on SUV's and huge pick-up trucks should fall, I think I am on to something here, now if we could find a nation that is in need for used cheap SUV's/pick-ups we should be in business, lets turn OTD into a secret car ring, ????, and profit.

I think some people just don't believe gas can get real expensive. I filled up today at 3.15/gal which is about average for the area, what I've heard was it'll be $4.00 by the end of spring when people are getting ready to travel and $5.00 by the end of this summer.

I also hear that every year, and it only did that in 2008 if i remember correctly. Though it always goes up a little bit in the summer.

Gas is 3.42 right now for me ( Cheapest place in town )

Expected to be a dollar more by spring, and up to 5+ by summer.

Just when I was gonna buy a jeep too. LOL.

Looks like imma get a small car, like subaru, civic, or small truck, like a ranger or s10.

Oh wells.

We pay around 1,30 euros for a motherfucking liter of gas and you guys are compaining that you'll have to pay 4-5 $/gallon (3,75 liters)?Oh, and it's not just branding costs because we call it liter.

:lolsy:

Get to your senses.And give me your pick-up trucks.

Meh, cost of living is so high in my area that gas is an afterthought.

I'd like to see the market forces at work.

Yeah man I know, the system is so fucked up over there, they oppress the population by giving them the cheapest and best stuff around so that the little people are happy and don't see to what lengths they are going too to secure that life-style...wait what???
