Alright... you guys have me on board with this gas strike thing. I put gas yesterday, $60 worth of it. Therefore I don't have the need to put gas today. So, I'm good.

I forgot and filled my bike up today.
I think it was $4.00.
Turns out I wasn't as low as I thought.

I haven't driven enough in the last week to justify buying gas. So I participated by default.

The plan worked. The price of gas went up another ten cents.

I let my M998 idle for about 2 hours so my ass could stay warm in the field, suckers.

Re: Gas Strike: Friday, May 2, 2008
We had this same discusiion on another thread. IMO, you can boycott, let the oil companies drill in Alaska and you will still have the exact same prices and maybe a little higher. Anything short of big brother stepping will not reduce gas prices. Even if big brother does decide to play a role, it will only be short term and then prices will sky rocket again.
