[QUOTE="nofearfactor, post: 2778763, member: 1535"] I run 91 and better when I can find it in 2 sports cars and in my DD hotrod SUV w/5.7l, but I never really look at gas prices much when Im out here because gas is always hell'a cheaper here than back home in California. When Im going to CA and back it affects my road budget quite a bit tho. When Im home here I mostly just cruise around BA and Coweta but do go in to Tulsa and back when I need to so the price of gas hasnt affected my daily activities. When I drive back and forth to gigs that I can drive to instead of fly it does affect my road budget but I deal with it by asking for more money from my manager. I fly alot to jobs, my accumulated miles help some, but flights are getting ridiculous expensive. The wifes lil commuter 4cyl Honda CR-V that she drives daily in to Tulsa and back during the week she runs 87 in and she is constantly bitching about the price of gas no matter if we're in a down or up cycle because shes always trying to balance her budget/expense report. Ironically, the job she has put over 30 years in and is now a corporate officer, a company that builds massive equipment for large refineries world wide, she has been swamped busy as they have been busier than ever. She just spent the last several weeks and a few Saturday afternoons in the office working on a $33 million dollar job. Its done now and shes going on a 10 day vacation starting this weekend with her sister. I try to explain to her that when she bitches about gas prices that her bonus's on these big jobs will more than make up for what she is spending extra in gas money to drive her little 50 mile round trip to the office.
