i never said that gas was $3.00 back then. I said average price per gallon paid.

Maybe the average price per gallon paid $2.50, $2.00, 1.50, who knows. A $1.50 avg price per gallon would still yield a lot of money on gas and if he got ****ty mpg it'd be higher a higher cost

Actually, horent- I'm a short half Jewish guy with greying hair (actually, the perfect Lexus owner - right? <GRIN>), and numbers come easy to me. But I digress.

I just like the feeling of driving this car, and it still feels special after 15+ years. How many cars on the road can still say that?

I mean, my ex had a 1992 Honda Accord EX with 250,000 miles. It ran like a top, but it felt like it had done 250,000 miles. Even in top condition.
