When I last worked in Ohio, they put alcohol in the gas. How strange. In Texas they put alcohol in the drivers. (long ago) Anyway my Nissan truck would have an intermittent miss the whole time I was in Ohio. Once we got back to NC the miss would cease. Later I found out that a gallon of gas-o-hol has less energy than a gallon of gas. They should charge less.

Did you want a picture of the kitchen sink?? I can do it.Originally posted by Smedley View PostJust got a couple of packing up pictures from Batstiva. He's got everything in there but the proverbial kitchen sink!
Also, I didn't notice a shotgun in there. Isn't it mandatory to carry a shotgun or rifle at all times in the state of WV?

And just cause you can't see the shotgun, doesn't mean it's not there.

Bring the auto B6!Originally posted by Pu241 View PostOK, will do!
Gas is running a 2.09 to $2.15 in St Louis.
Trying to decide whether to take the ATX or the 5 spd.
5 spd needs down pipe replaced/welded and a few other fixes but with a 10 MPG delta in MPG guess I should get off my hiney!

Gas is slowly dropping around here. 2.39 around the house, 2.34 near where I work. Finally!!
Don't forget to take pics, digital, cell phone, video camera. You'll be glad you did. We can put them together and make one of these.

Regular 87 is going for $2.21 in my town in Virginia. Not sure what it is in the rest of Virginia, though, but should be comparable.

Jeremy,
You still can do picks of leaving for the meet. Aren't you loading up a hatch for somebody?
