$3.00 "Gasolina"

We do own an SUV, but we have used it rarely since December.

And everytime we see a Hummer, an Excalade or even an Expedition owner accelerate out of a redlight , it makes us love our Scions even more

We were even asked by a hardcore Suburban SUV owner near our house how much we spend on gas and where we bought our Scion

Has anyone had situations like that lately?

Enjoy it while you can, with summer on the way the price is just going to go higher.

Can you say $4.00 a gallon.

with the Iranians talking all of that nuclear smack, its just to drive up the price of crude oil, which they have a $h1t load of . don't mean to rant, it just really ____es me off.

Here is went up to $3.07, so I got a full tank this morning. I still had some in the tank so it took me $24.00 to top it. But like some of you may have experienced, the guy in front of me at the gas station was looking or should I say "stared" at the Scion logo on the front grill.

So when I drove out I slowed to see how much he paid for his Excursion gas... $72.00

I think we will see a new Scion owner trading in an SUV shortly
