    Yeah all the people bitching about gas prices are getting 8-12 mpg in these things, filling a 25 gallon tank once a week. A lot of these folks aren’t exactly rich either and the trucks are expensive. They’re paying a mortgage payment in monthly fuel, insurance, and loan expenses on these things.

    If they could keep their egos in check, they’d save a lot of money.

      For people in modern countries - that’s about 28 litres per 100km that these selfish, thoughtless fuckers are going through. Cunts

      My wee car uses about 5.5 for reference

        Kept reading about the fuel costs but never bothered to do the conversion. I understood they drank a lot so didn’t feel the need to know exactly how much…didn’t realize it was quite that high. Fucking hell… And I thought 10-15 was a lot for a car.
