I get a particular feeling of cynicism when I see soccer moms spend over $120 to fill up a useless land barge who's closest activity to off roading was encountering a DC pothole on the way to Starbucks. The "Support Our Troops" stickers usually affixed adds to the irony. No, moron, you are not supporting our troops, you are supporting terror-funding, filthy Arab regimes who support our troops' ENEMIES through proxy. For those keeping score on fuel efficient vehicles, the VW TDI's get the best real world gas mileage - more than the hybrids. Don't blame Toyota for their false MPG ratings, blame the incompetents at the EPA for that. Too bad that TDI's wont give you the government perks a Prius buys you. >From: Thane Sherrington <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: The Hardware List <hardware@hardwaregroup.com> >To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com >Subject: [H] Gas prices >Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2005 13:14:54 -0300 > >Our gas prices climbed $0.06 per litre yesterday, so we are at $4.27 US per >gallon now.
