^We've got cars, we just still pull them with horses.

OK, so is this just a general chit chat location?

Now I've got nothing to say!

Yeah, random questions. you're a threadjacker and don't even know it. Or you do know it and your just acting innocent. have you ever tried the search button? jp!!!

do not fear the little low fuel light. I'll have to check again how much you have left when the light goes on. I wrote it down somewhere. I want to say it goes on when you're at 9.4gallons but I don't know why that number is stuck in my head. Whatever the case, you could drive around for days. lol

I never get 300 miles to a tank! but the first tank doesn't count.

This is the perfect thread for a black box on wheels . I wonder if i could get a magnetic orange tiangle for the hatch . I have only seen 300 miles per tank a few times myself mostly from long trips, and i am at about 36,000 miles, it all depends on how you drive it. If you drive like April (guitarsurf) then yes you will never see 300 I believe you have 1.9 gallons left when the light comes on.

The pharmacist walks into the store to find a guy leaning heavily against a wall. He asks the blonde clerk "What's with that guy over there by the wall?"

The blonde clerk responds: "Well, he came in here this morning to get something for his cough. I couldn't find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire bottle of laxative."

The pharmacist yells: "You idiot! You can't treat a cough with a laxative!"

The blonde clerk responds, "Of course you can! Look at him, he's afraid to cough.

I thought i heard the xb's get like another 40-60 miles when the light comes on. I could be wrong though.

I can't really pick on the Amish folk because i grew up in Lancaster.

HEY!!! I'm getting better! But it's not my fault the stupid thing won't move when I press the accelerator. I just keep pressing harder until it finally gets somewhere. Those 102 horses or whatever I have need a swift kick in the fast pants.

you betcha I tease the horses with carrots... works every time

here is a few amish question and things I'd love to ask but I'm afraid that Zeke will tie me up and make me grow a beard...

1.) Do you ever get the feeling that when you pass an amish buggy that you should stop and ask them if they want a ride?

2.) Image how an amish person would react say if they got to sit in a bugatti veyron doing the 1/4 mile

3.) flying are they afraid of heights?

4.) is haveing a phone in a shed cheating?

sorry about the put downs but I couldn't resist.. at least they aren't in debt like me
