I did it. this thread was getting more into the politics and opinions that have little to do with diesel motor vehicles...
I think this thread should focus on just bellyaching and reporting the cost of local fuel!
thanks!

conversations and opinions on the rising cost of fuel

Thanks, John...

The political/environmental/anti-SUV-PickUp crap was getting to be too much. When will some idiots learn that people will drive what they want to drive? And ***** & complain like the rest of us when fuel prices go up. No one says you gotta like it, but you've got to put up with it. This is America, after all...
