    Just visited the USA and just loved the rental car I had... it had a 6.2ltr engine, did 13mpg... a car that I just could not afford to run in the UK...

    I came back to the UK, filled my 2ltr diesel engine and it cost me over $10 a gallon!

    If I fill up my MC on the lake I have to pay nearly $15 a gallon and therefore I get my mates to come up with 5 gallon cans when we go out wakeboarding...

    Njoy the cheap gas and the sunshine :-)

        10 a gallon crazy... That will keep cars off the road. 50% surcharge for marina gas... Very steep.

          Wow, wow, wow. I can't imagine 10 per gallon. Might lead to less cruising and more floating.

            Even though we are in a pretty bad drought, I still have the Delta - that is until Gov (Idiot) Brown gets his was and drains the xhit out of it.

            Or until the Calif treehuggers ban watersports in the Delta to protect the unicorns and rainbow turtles?

            I boat on the coast mainly. Always plenty full.

              I use to work for a paper and timber company in Norther Ca (up there they use to think of San Fran as south). Many bumper sticks in the parking lot that read "Shoot a Spotted Owl and save a Lumber Jack". Now I think a good idea for a bumper sticker is "Shoot a Liberal and Save our Country". Of course the same could be said about any flavor of politician...

              Everyone wants to talk about the environment, global warming, etc. Nobody wants to talk about the primary cause which is the invasive species that the human race represents. We over populate the world and wonder why things are going to hell and a hand basket with respect to our natural resources. And then we setup a social welfare system that pays people for cranking out kids they can support.

              Funny that I go around and tell people that I think liberally. Then I tell them my thoughts and opinions on such matters...

              I'm thinking Montana or Wyoming are good states for me. I just need to find a nice body of water to wakeboard on.

              Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, Wow! What a Ride! ~~ Hunter S. Thompson

                ...as George Carlin used to say, "There is no need to save the earth, because the earth will be fine. It has survived through periods of ice, flooding, fire, and drought. The human race on the other hand, is screwed!"
