    Don't forget to calculate the gas mileage decline you'll see with a kiddie pool full of fuel in your bed weighing you down

    149 miles from my house to 3.60$ a gallon.

    7.5 gallons = 150 miles @ 4.25 a gallon = 29.75$ (cost of trip there) 27 $ cost of trip back @ 3.60 a gallon (+ or- 10%)


    i only have 5 fuel cans @ 5 gallons a piece = 25 gallons

    id have to bring back more fuel than i could use in a month to make the trip worth it. shit.

    here's what kills me, the Refinery Companies are asking for people not to top off and fill extra cans when they know most of the dingbats are gonna do just that.
