The obligitory gas price segment on the news

Other then this post, I promise that we will never post about gas prices on www.infinite-garage.com. Gas prices are irrelevant, that may sound odd but the fact is it’s true. If you have to drive to work, school, or to the store you are going to do it no matter what the price of gas is. Sure they might effect the car you drive the next time you go car shopping but you are still going to drive. I feel like the news, which is a joke in America has to run a gas price segment every couple weeks to spark just a little outrage. This gets the ‘mericans all pissed at the middle east, and the people who hate cars screaming “we need more mass transit!” Both are kind of stupid. We get more oil from Canada then the middle east, of course the middle east has something to do with the price, but the fact is oil is a publicly traded commodity, which is what dictates the price.

So, we vow not to talk about gas prices here, we are car guys, and using some fuel is part of it. In fact we should make it a point that every time we see a hybrid to tromp on it and use a little more gas. Someone has to use it, and you wouldn’t want it to be a Prius would you?
