My jobs only 10 miles away so my tank lasts a month thank goodness.

Staying home is the way to go on my days off

And a V-Tec sticker adds 75 mental horsepower so they are easy to mod.

I always find it amusing to see people in the U.*. complain about gas prices. Last night on my way home I paid 102.1/L for regular 89 octane
that comes up to about 3,85$ a gallon, so supreme was sitting at about 4,47 a gallon. I am sure glad now that I started going back to 89 octane. I used to only run supreme in my Malibu to try and keep it running in top shape for longer with all the driving I do, but with these prices I went back to regular a few months ago.

I noticed a big difference in gas mileage on it, I get way better mileage with it.
