Gas is not very fun. But then, I try to get/drive cars with good mileage. Still, my state taxes gas quite heavily (no state income tax).

I hate SUVs but I do like some trucks. I'm mostly into sporty cars which do eat a lot of gas too. My friend recently got himself a stupid H2, what a waste of money and I'm not even talking about gas. Btw, f150 isn't that bad with gas mileage.

Yeah, v8 would give your wallet a good kick. Funny, even a v12 500hp viper has better mpg than H2. Lol. My friend pays like $80 to refuel the beast...and it goes about 200mi on a full tank.

Yeah, nice looking rig. Price tag is a bit scary tho. The look's a killer imho.

Oh, for anyone who doesn't know what s7 is, here's a link: http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/saleen_s7.asp

Yup, that's about the price this rig costs. This is a lot of money for a car anyway, I'm sure these cars are only produces on order basis or something of that sort (ala some lambos and fearraris). I wonder how much it'd cost to fix a scratch on a $500k car. lol

It's like that all over Europe, which means they drive smaller, better cars than Americans.
