Inflation, fuel costs, Oh My!


Recommended Posts

The latest national report by "AAA" is fuel prices will not increase anymore through the Memorial Day weekend.  They are suppose to hold steady @ the national average of $2.82/gallon.  :whistle:

But to beat the higher prices, I'm going to dilute my fuel at a 50/50 mix  with water.  That'll bring my cost down to approximately $1.41/gallon.  "I'll show them..."  :spitting:

Caution: That will affect one half of the auto start/stop system.

Good strategy. In general, the cars that we use besides being expensive to maintain due to the constant rise in fuel prices, they emit a very large amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. You can Click for source and find out statistics on how strongly countries in which a large number of cars affect the general state of the atmosphere and the formation of ozone holes.
