When your Acura's "check engine" light comes on because your car requires 91 octane gas, and even though you fill up with 91 all the time...the check engine light is still on. Screw ethanol.

Gas was $2.38 today. I pray it keeps going on down.

$2.19.9 In Kc Mo right now. Shucks, it may get below $2.00. How long has it been since it was that low?
Why is it that bad decisions seem to make to most interesting testimonies?

I filled up for $2.36.9 in Greer, SC this afternoon. I went into Wal-Mart to put some cash on my gift card and it was 2.44.9 and when I came out it had dropped to $2.39.9 - the 3 cent discount to 2.36.9

I paid @2.89 at the local Chevron on my way to my kids football game. 10 miles down the road it was $2.69. Should have waited

As I'm sure the OPEC is not with guilt, it is the Futures Market and greedy Oil Exec. that are the reason that the prices went sooo high. Isn't funny how that prices are falling that OPEC is nowtalking about cuting back on production. It was our own people that basically did this to us and I don't like it a bit. It was only after the market felted the heat that things changed.

When somebody gets used to something it is hard for tem to size down. :evil:

Do not, repeat do not, put that stuff in an ATV or Lawn mower with a carburetor. It will also break down your plastic lines to sludge.

Not to mention drastically lower your MPG. Unreal.

Are you able to still find gas without Ethanol? All the stations here all have the ethanol sticker.
