i have this disscussion with local guys all the time what! 10 or 12 mpg? they say how can you afford to drive that thing then they try to brag about the milage their getting i let them rant for a while then ask them what their payments are and for how many years on average 500 to 1000 month my comment is my truck is paid for and theres no way i ever spent 1000 month on gas and how much of a crowd do you draw every time you stop? when i drive my classic dents its a real rush to get the thumbs up and the comments so gas is not an issue
