Were they smokin when they came up with that or what?
Oh, reg gas $2.84 here today.

I can't believe that. If it's true then the environmentally irresponsible party here is the car maker for not providing a way to attach a mower deck to that wonderfully clean burning small car
That's a poor comparison because they used a 2-stroke. People don't mow with 2-stroke engines and we only blow leaves for a short period each year. I used about 2.5 gallons of gas a year to mow my place, which happens once a week for half the year.
I've seen $309.9 all week at a variety of stations that I wouldn't have thought offered the same price. I wondered if the El Cheapo place I use would be any cheaper. It was $289.9 the week before. I bought gas Thursday and forgot to cheap the price
