I gotta tell ya, I feel even manlier knowing that I'm paying more per gallon. Makes me look even more like a stud. 
Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go to the auto parts store in my turbo diesel pick up truck to purchase a can of carburetor cleaner to clean the carbs out on my eBay project boat. I know you have no idea what a carburetor is, so use Google.

Ok, I agree that the OP is an ***. I think that basically that all of us on his assness. Is that a word? Anywho, I have a neighbor, who bought an F250 powerstroke. This guy is an ***. He did not need it, and will NEVER use the truck to half of its potential. (He also owns a Porshe that has never even seen 80 miles an hour) I am about 99.9% sure that he did it for a ***** extension. He has money to burn... With that being said, just because the my neighbor is a douche bag, does not mean that everyone who drives a 250 is a douchebag. Its just that here in Texas, Super Duties are everywhere. Many of these trucks should be F150's, because the driver doesn't need them. But ya know what? Its there money,and their right to be a douche bag. I do laugh at these guys... I just think the OP is taking his frustration out on the wrong people. I dont really think he thought he would get this flamed. Not that he didn't deserve it!

So $3.20 gas however you look at it is not a real good deal IMO. While .80 a gallon sounds like a lot, its really not that much if you look at total cost. Its kind of like the Walmart gift card deal where you get .03 a gallon off, when gas was $1.50 a gallon it was significant but now that its $3 a gallon its not worth messing with.
Gas is cheaper yeah but we are both still getting f'ed without a reach around.

I hope this works.

I want to go up to someone and say like, "What is gas?" or like "I need to wait 5 minutes before I turn off my truck, that's why I'm always late to work."...
One day... just one day I'll own one and use those excuses.
Just what is a carburator? Hmmm... it sounds like some kind of carb-reducing excercise...
