Its not even gas. You can see people on welfare all over the place without jobs begging for food. they got a smoke in one hand, a beer in the other and are still talking on their cell phone. Of course they are gonna bitch about Gas. Its the American way (note, I fully understand that this kind of behavior is a very very small percentage of even the people on welfare).
Kind of like people like this, I LOVE this article.

Another thing we have a Costco near me and it's gas is cheaper but not so much it's like 20 cents cheaper. But people will wait in line for like a half hour to get gas. I am saying gee half an hour in line to save $4 (at most). What's the big deal about $4 at's like $1 in gas down the drain trying to save a few bucks. Really stupid IMO

OOOHH. Can I bitch, too? My wife's F-250/w7.3L PowerStroke weighs 7,000lbs. and gets 19.5 MPG running empty(SuperChip). It has a 38 gallon tank that is currently over $140 to fill. It is a 2000 model with 90,000 miles and most of that has been done with a trailer dangling off the back.
IIRC, the Excursion is built on an F-250 chassis.
