nikbj68, my favorite song!!!

Yup, that's where we're heading alright....sneaking out into the countryside to avoid the "motor law".

Since my Cobra is RED, I guess I'll slowly become the white-haired uncle.

LOL! I nearly edited the line to "...A brilliant Shelby Cobra
From a better vanished time..."
Off topic, sorry, but I`ve got my ticket to see RUSH on the UK tour in September....last saw them in `83, missed them in `96. (Just hope Alex isn`t singing Jailhouse Rock!!!)

Problem solved,

By using enough of the gasoline additives that will increase my mileage by 20% and more, I can drain the excess gas I will be making and sell it to others.

Gas prices arn't even a consideration when I drive my Cobra. Maybe at $10.00 a gallon? Nope, I think I'd still drive it the same amount. I don't think prices could go high enough to make me drive the Cobra less. Might make me want a very efficient daily driver though. Turbo Mini Cooper? That would be awesome until some idiot in an Escalade on their cell phone plowed into you cause they couldn't see you under the hood.

I'm not going to worry about the price of gas.

What really frosts my nads is my wife who pays.... what?..... a buck for 26 oz of bottled water....... when the same stuff comes from our kitchen tap!!!!

Gas is cheap when compared to bottled water
