Still haven't seen anything under $2.50/gal for 87 octane around B-mo although I'm not complaining. It's nice to be able to fill up the Mazda 3 for under $40. The WJ would take about $50.

Its $2.30 at exit 80 off I95 BigSki. It's the only reason I can afford to drive my H3T, lol. If it goes above $3 I gotta go back to the Mini Cooper :(

You guys are so lucky to have such cheap petrol prices.
Today the cheapest in Perth is au$1.11 per litre.
At the current exchange rate(according to google) that works out to be us$3.41 per gallon.
That's the cheapest we've seen in years.

I'm a machinist in the energy industry. I hate seeing these low prices, in one way (There will not be as much work for in the next few months.) but, like all of you, at least I can afford to fill up, today! I can't even imagine that these prices will even last 6 months though so, enjoy it while it lasts!

We pay US $1.14 per liter of petrol according to today's exchange rate.

Too much weight on our shoulders.

Greece is in a financial crisis. Currently the burden of Greece is on other European nations which cannot sustain for a long time. US and NATO are going to take measures to stabilize Greece. To do so they are pumping economy back on track and they are going to use circulating money from the economy to stabilize it. Governments can print money in excess to get Greece out of trouble, but that would create a terrible inflation which will hurt the monetary system.
I think, a 6 month time is an adequate time frame to get everything on track.

Wow, he reminds me of a dog some farmer friends of my folks used to have, also by the name of Bear oddly enough. Had a difficult time getting him to not try and kill my Bandit and Stampede when we would go visit them.

unfortuantly its low quality cell phone footage, but this is amazing. gets better the longer you watch.

parts appear to be done with projectors, others seem more crisp and vibrant like leds or lasers (underneith?)

Maroon one is two cabs grafted together, you can see it in the shoulder line after first door going to second, open door.

First one is just silly engineering. Like they did on the one F1 car with four front tires.

I'm talking more of the story into why they look like that vs how. With cars like that Model A on tractor wheels and tires (Rural Farm Delivery vehicles) or those full sized vans on tracks or tracks and skis (sky resort vehicles), I either already knew via other sources or found out why by digging into the pics a little more. A 3 axle power Wagon or that 4 axle monster, the latter had to built for a purpose considering the age of the pic, but I'm more curious if that PW was built for a work truck of some sort or more modern "phantom" what-if build like it seems to be somewhat in vogue the past 2 decades.

I usually fill up the Geo with like $20 if that. But we don't run it out of gas as the gas gauge is off.
