Default Gas hit $4.00 =[ I need a better DD

Gas prices are getting really scary now. It almost makes me wanna just ride my gas powered scooter to work [&:]

Anyway, with the trucks 'great' gas mileage.... lol

I need to buy another car. This paycheck I am going to look around and put a down payment on a car. I'm looking at a 1990 Saab 900

Its $600 and is in nice shape. Everything from CD player to a sunroof. Sadly its a 2.0L N/A...

Not a turbo car. Anyway, it gets better gas mileage then my truck.... and its a 5 speed . The car is literally mint the guy says, runs fine and everything. Its kinda ugly tho [:@]Its like..... **** green lol. And its body style is like a space ship [8D]

But yeah, I'll be looking at it today and test driving it.

As for the truck... it aint goin nowhere Its still my little bitch to toy with [8D]I'll make it a street/strip truck. I just dont have much money to put into it cause I am paying out the ass for gas.

Stop bitching, when you pay $5.00 a gallon (like I do) then you might be able to bitch, mean time buy a sprint and get 50 mpg[8D]
