The price of gas is really taking a bite here in Tampa Im paying 2.05 to 2.10 for premium, I even resorted to knocking the timing back to 10 degrees and tried the midgrade stuff. I know alot of you guys in different markets are probably paying stiff prices too, Im thinking of buying a beater 6 cyl. T-bird and saving the Stang for the weekends. I wonder what the future holds for alternative fuels, whatever happened to Gasahol? Anyone remember that?

i think diamond shamrock uses ethanol in their gas now, just doesnt really make it public, bc it can hurt some engines, but then again i dont think it would hurt mine so cheaper gas is cheaper gas.

Try living in SoCal. Im paying 2.49 for "Premium," 91 Octane. Thats the best we get here. I dont care though. If I was worried about gas prices, I would drive the 96 Sentra on a daily basis.
