Good quality post, thanks for sharing.

 

Oh !, you have an MBA , I'm surprised you were able to figure out how to post here........jk


Anyways, as jerky as MumFord's post was, he has a point. If gas costs too much either sell your F150 or make more money, your choice...... it always will be.

 

....waiting for the post from the guy with the Phd.

 

sell a year old truck eh? good luck, you can buy a new one with 0% financing for the same price as a used one with 6% at the bank. GOOD LUCK. and with the price of gas GOOD LUCK. your stuck with what you got.

 

Mumford's post was right on. He and his wife make good money, so he bought a nice truck. I'm not quite as well off as he is, but work from home, and am in sales, so just about every mile I drive is to and from customer calls, so the company reimburses me $0.36/mile. If I drive 200 miles on business, I get 72 bucks back from the company. Not a bad deal. Pays for a tank and a half of my own driving.

What I will vent about, and probably cause a rucus, is California thinking that oil companies are "gouging" them. Lift all the clean air requirments that California has on the gasoline mixture and the price will go down. Allow the oil companies to drill off the California coast, and gas prices will go down for everyone as there will be way more US produced crude and less imported oil.

Oh, by the way, the air doesn't stop just because it crosses the California border.

Bring on the flames

 

I didn't even finish high school.
I make 7 figures and I still can't afford these gas prices.

I hope to make 9 figures soon.
My brother is bringing me a model of a cat and a pig.
I think a cat is too skinny to make in pine but, we'll see.

And now carbon dioxide is a pollutant. I guess its time to outlaw breathing and tell trees its bad for them. To top off the 53 dollar a barrel oil, they want to raise gas taxes in CA. Ugh. In this state 2+2 does not equal 4.

I always buy gas in AZ on the weekends for 30 cents cheaper than in CA so that helps a little. I am not budgeted and the biggest inpact is less money to play with on the weekend.

 

And we all know that Phd means "Push Here Dummy!"

 

Wow, I'm impressed.

You must know Martha Stewart and Clint Eastwood?

 

So much for this theory.
