    Back when i drove the turnpike you could go 80 without a Statey bothering you. 295 is full of maniac Connecticut drivers and Philly drivers going 50 in the fast lane.

    Does NJ still only allow the gas stations on the Parkway and Turnpike to revise gas prices once per week?

    That's a reason to take the Turnpike and pay the toll... especially if fuel is spiking.

    That's why I like 295, it's like the autobahn south of Marlton.

    Look, I'm sorry if you don't like it, but the fact remains, we import a significant amount of finished grade gasoline into the U.S. every year. A little internet research will take you a long way; here is the first of many links I found.

    Yeh I'm in the danger zone. From exit 28 to 45. It's like everyone is in a slot car race.

    I don't see Rivian making it past 2023. They might be able to keep the lights on till the end of this year.

    Well, shit. Time to bury money in my mattress and yard, then.

    Tesla is up today, but everything is so volatile.
