    i will keep the mazda 3 and dive that. Maybe get another motorcycle if $$ allows and save even more money.

    and every time I go to the pump... I will drop my pants, bend over, and let it rape me as I raise my middle finger as high as I can. :cool:

    its $3.40 a gallon here and its only January... it will be over $4.00 this summer easily.

    I plan on getting a used 99-00 civic as a DD and when the weather is nice I'll ride my Ninja 250R motorcycle which gets awesome 70 mpg (if I don't upgrade to something bigger).
