not much to think about since you can't do anything but pay what they post on the pump. it sucks but a good running mustang should get at least 20 mpg combined driving anyway.

What do I think of gas? It's highway robbery, literally.

First auto manufacturer that can make a car that runs off of water and is both reliable and affordable has my dollar.

The gas prices give me an excuse to buy more goodies, like the fuel cleaners and crap. Plus I have to justify my part purchases to my dad before I can do em and that statement "Increases MPG" is damn near a guarantee. Plus personally I fill up more often so it stays under $40 each time. Can't do it otherwise. Oh my poor pitiful paycheck.

I wouldn't fall for gimmicks as fuel cleaners, gas comes with detergent already in it. MAYBE use it if you have a high milage engine like 60k plus every once in a while.

We hit $4.04 for regular here in Arlington, VA today. It sucks, especially with the Expedition.

Yeah, I know it's a gimmick, but occasionally you just need to buy something for your car.
