This is why I don't say anything when I post a thread or a poll in the V10 forum. For some reason, the thread just dies. Is there anyway we can keep the ball bouncing?

What more would you like us to say??? We use our rigs for what they were intended for and therefore have no need for an econobox. I would be curious as to at what price of gas the six people in the poll would sell. Personally I would not sell no matter how high gas got as nothing else would meet my needs. I also doubt gas would ever get as bad as what they have in Europe where it is over $5 a liter.

Ronin007, you do make a very valid point. With that in mind, I won't argue with you or anyone who decides to post inspite of this.

Hmmm...
Here in Southeastern Oklahoma.

cheapest gasoline at E-Z mart= $1.72/gallon

cheapest diesel at Choctaw Plaza=$1.60/gallon (they have the highest quality diesel of this area, it's where all the truckers fill up)
