Number 11 refinery shut down in Indiana so the whole surrounding area got raped. On Monday I got gas for 2.77 in Tennessee and then got it for 3.49 at the family express on hwy 43 in Brookston, IN. I read that thing about the refinery shutting down the next day in the newspaper.

you know even with the high prices I don't mind filling my car and truck... you see while every one here is whineing about prices over $3 back home in ireland we have been paying over $9 a gallon for over a decade.

and if you think thats bad stay out of McDonalds! a meal here that is $5.99 is 5.99 there... but in pounds... with the conversion (about $2 per pound) your $5.99 meal here would cost $12 over there!!!

Now you know why I am here....

they dont really drive as much over in ireland as we do over here plus i am sure the cost of living is way cheaper over there too.

they don't drive as much because the country is alot smaller and the cost of living is about the same if not a little more. the main problem is they tax the hell out of everything.

E85? how does she run on that?

I think he means E as in empty, but you gave me an idea, what if you had half a tank and switch off between e85 and normal gas. which would make idealy 42.5% Ethanol. Normal gas can have 15% would this be a way to save money, or could neons not handle that much alcohol through the system.
