$6 a gallon?

If I could go back in time, I might just go with the full service. I wouldn't have a problem saying "Fill er up! 93 octane Premium Unleaded" But now???

Anyone else noticed gas prices skyrocketing? NO? Where have you been? Anyone ranging from 6-93 that knows what a car is knows just how expensive its getting to drive one. Gas prices have sored and reached a level no one in the US has ever seen (unless you took a jaunt to any European country).
Heres a few little stats about our lame gasoline situation.

Start thinking about buying a Smart Car. Helps stop pollution, save on gas, its sporty and fun! Plus the sport Smart Cars have a top that opens and closes at any speed!

Love this little thing!
