Everyone in California is obsessed with Cars

I had a beat up 95 maxima for a while, well it was pretty clean when I got it, but headunit was messed up, no antanae, there were many mechanical failures. lol great car though

Originally posted by dstyle its the 03 V6. i luv it

That 4.3 sure is a guzzler though. I get about 15-16 MPG with my BlaZeR2 (same engine) in town and maybe if lucky about 17 on the highway. I really wish they had but a V8 in there or at least offered it as an option on these S10s ... The reason I am asking is I was wondering what kind of milage you get on the trailblazer ... and last time I was in Cali the gas prices were INSANE I think I pumped $2.23 somewhere for 87. Here in WI it's like 1.75

Umm I get about 15-16 during the regular week, and anywhere around 17-19 on the highway, matters how fast I'm driving. Ya the gas is killing me slowly, 87 is around 2.05, 92 is around 2.20.

I'll never forget driving out here from WV a couple years back. The cheapest gas on the trip was in Oklahoma, $0.99 a gallon for 87. When we got to LA, it was up to $1.79 a gallon for the same gas.

When I started driving in 95-96'. I would complain when the gas was around 1.03

I used to live in Oklahoma. I remember visiting in 1998, driving my friends car I had to fill up for $0.89...how ridiculous is that?

Last month I was in Texas, I left Austin at $1.40 a gallon, got to LA at $2.05.

price gauging at its finest while the gov't looks the other way. between that and OPEC.

Kinda sucks to be driving a 5.7L V-8 SUV thats 14 city and 17mpg highway (so it says)

So if they drive a sh!tty, rusty, old piece of crap, would that make them a good or bad person?

neither, but then you know for example that they aren't interested in cars as anything more than transportation... if they have an SUV...why? Do they surf, snowboard, just like the extra room?

Whatever... if someone drives a xxxxty, rusty, old piece of crap, I don't care.
Just ask Dusken! *points and laughs*

Seriously, it doesn't matter to me. I LOVE cars, so i get excited if someone drives a nice car, mostly cuz i want to drive it, but i dont make any sort of judgement about them really.

Hehe. One can only point and laugh at mine as a result of envy.

I sort of miss your Saab... or maybe it's the driver.
