Sweet looking ride. Is it a gas sucking pig. My 1972 Mustang with 302
2V got about 12 MPG. I was 18 or 19 at the time.

Speaking of gas prices, now that the supply/demand basis of our economy
has driven gas prices down, the Fed now wants to raise the federal tax
on gas by 10 cents a gallon *(12-15 cents for diesel) *and is
encouraging individual states to also raise their taxes.

Have you seen what Oregon wants to do. Charge per mile driven for
vehicles registered in the state.

They wanted us to reduce burning dino-fuel, well we did. Their revenue
took a hit. Now their coffers are empty and they are in a panic.

Why is it that the state can't ever take a pay cut?

I noted this program months ago here and it was poo'pooed by the usual
trolls. It is really a progrram connected to the Insurance industry
but that's another story. As to Harrys comment, he better hang on to
his money, Obama and Pelosi are talking $1.50 tax on gas per gallon
cause "we can afford it". It's a middle class tax hike, nothing less...
