Life is great.

 

i think i drive my porsche more because it's the only car we have that uses less gas.

 

If gas hits $5.00 I'll still drive it on the weekends! I work all week long to enjoy my weekends and the Pcar! I never let the gas needle go below 1/2 so it seems mentally not as bad$$

 

All my other cars are V8s. My daily commute is only 2 miles away. I'm trying to find reasons to have more errands so I can drive my Pcar around.

 

not really, but then again, i work at home so i dont even really notice gas prices for the most part.

 

Just that fact that i think about the price at all is a change for me. There are times when I am not sure if I want to drive somewhere and all I need is one more reason to cancel getting behind the wheel . Approx 4 bucks a gallon can seal the idea of not going when in the past I may have .

 

Yes increasing gas prices are making my drive mine more. I want to use as much gas as I can before it hits $10 a gallon or we completely run out.

 

I didn't buy my 996 or CTT for economy reasons. Own it, drive it, love it

 

great one Duane

 

That's my thought, how bad would it suck if oil just stooped pumping and we were all left this incredible machines without gas. I know that will never happen.

I was just curious, I hear a lot of people talking about it, would assume that most Porsche drivers have a little more disposable income then some (if not at least they have sense!). Really $4 isn't too steep but I guess if you drove a ton of miles (commuted) each day it would add up. I only drive my beater about 10miles each way to work and home so it's not bad but I know a lot of people around the DC area drive 25-50 miles easy one way. For me it just means watching my money when I'm out places, try to buy a few more groceries then going to a restaurant. I can sacrifice there a little, but I always leave money for my car and gas to put into it!

 

I'm with Simon, been here a couple of years and still compare everything back to what it cost in England... I'm still laughing at the price of petrol, erm sorry Gas!

 

Wow....must suck for you , 2 miles huh? Lucky bastard!!!!!!!!!

 

Recently, I attended a Porsche event, I found out a 12 oz. bottle of water cost $5. Who would have thought plain water cost more than petro.

Few years from now, when we have to pay $10-$15 a gallon then we realized $4 a gallon is cheap and laugh at ourself for complaining.

 

My 996 gets better mileage than the Expedition I normally drive everyday, so I am driving the Porsche as much as I can, and it is alot more fun.

 

"My p-car is the most fuel efficient car I own. 28 to 33 mpg."

hmmm. 28 to 33 mpg. I think I need to slow down a bit.
