I see where you were going with that now. You were referring to the total price and I was referring to the difference in the per gallon price. 12.17/12.429 gallons = ~.97916 - .979 = ~.00016 (almost 2 ten-thousandths). But of course, my ~.00016*12.429=.002, so I guess we were both correct.

Speaking of the sport seats- do you use more lumbar support in this seat than a normal seat? I normally do not use any lumbar support, but find myself using quite a bit on these seats. No complaints about the comfort though. Then again, maybe I am using more lumbar since I started seeing a chiropractor for my aging back. Yes kids, it's hell getting old
Yes, I run full lumbar in my sport seats, but in my truck (Ram 2500 Limited) I don't need much and my Recaro's are perfectly comfortable without any lumbar adjustment whatsoever. I'm with you on the chiropractor visits.. Not only do I have partially herniated discs in my lower back... L3, L4, and L5, but I also have to make regular visits to a Neurologist due to severe spinal stenosis between my C5, C6, and C7 in my neck (thanks to Mom - genetic). I'm just all messed up!
I could tell you jumped on that like a dog on a stew bone. I only noticed the price when you said $1.02 a gallon. I immediately saw your transposition error. I let it go, but couldn't help to point out ttv36 isn't using the fuel we use. I'm pretty sure I remember him tuning to ethanol.
BTW, it irritates me to no end when states don't have 93. What is that 91 crap, anyway? My vehicle no likey.

Yes, I am in full agreement with you here and so is my car.
My car made 459 RWHP with 93 octane, but makes about 30 less than that when running 91 octane! It amazes me that most of the country gets 93 octane, yet some of us are still stuck with 91 octane. In Europe they have 99 RON, which would be equivalent to about 95 octane here in the states.

Whoa what happened? I thought we were just chiming in that being non Californian leads to lower pump prices not comparing pump prices in general? Guess I fudged that one! I'll take a pic of 93 next time, but the G only takes E85 now and I just snapped the pic after filling this morning otw to work.

No problem, Tony. We're all just jealous of you (and your car) being able to run off cheap corn juice.

So my car at home spends its time in the garage and when ever it is out and about I always use a shade on the wind shield. The other day I was driving and and ran my over the dash. It was starting to feel a tiny bit sticky and it looked a bit shiny. I always wipe the dash down with a damp cloth to remove dust. Anything I can do to try and prevent the dash from going south?

I've been very happy with both. Neither is inexpensive, however.

I'm really starting to like the black roof on the white sedans.

Oh hey, that's a nice floor jack. I like how low the lift-end is.
How much is something like that?
