Remember when America's dollar was the most powerful dollar?

Why do I always find the need to try to reason with the unreasonable?

And yet... still, you persist. Guess you don't have the age = wisdom thing going for ya either.

That's why I choose the "Ethanol free" pump.

Wish I could afford it

Ten cents a gallon difference is all it is here, and I have a 10 gallon tank. What do you know... that whole dollar difference.

Even when I have to use the truck, which drinks gas, that just means I put in what I can afford and then I drive responsibly and use as little gas as possible.

Hope you're not blaming Obama for that because ethanol in gasoline pre-dates the Obama administration.

Whoa, I'm not blaming Obama.

It's not the price of the fuel but what it does to the engine. I'm a mechanic by trade.

Yeah. The guys in the white house. Dude. The only people who LIVE in the White House are the President & his family, and some Secret Service agents. The rest of them do their policymaking and other bull on the hill with everybody else.

Sorry, I guess I meant to say the government.

Congrats. I couldn't work on a car if my life depended on it. Well, maybe if it were live or die situation. It looks like a mess of... stuff to me. Like cooked noodles and some chunks, and I've been known to go "What the @#%$^ is THAT THING?" and it turned out "that thing" was my fuel injector.

I'm not a dude

I'm sorry, I'm from Oklahoma. Where we call everybody "Dude." or "Man". Maybe I should call you "Dudette" "Woman"? What would you prefer, because I sure as heck am not going to remember you name... I barely remember my neighbor's and I see her every day. Maybe I should introduce you to my brother-in-law, who quilts, and my cousin the helicopter mechanic (and she's a very pretty woman).

It's all good here. Trust me I'm not good with names either.
