I've always liked them
I figured Hawaii would be close to $3. I went on an Alaska cruise in 99 and I remember thinking how outrageous it was that they payed $1.60 a gallon.

Dayton: The outer islands are typically 30-50 cents a gallon higher, so the $3 barrier could be broken real soon...

I filled up on the way to little league yesterday @ $1.88, on the way back it was $2.08 at the same station (I had to laugh). It does though suck to go from "F" on the gauge to "really freaking F" to the tune of $13.50. Fucking bad mileage, gas guzzeling V8.

The Most Power-Drunk
gregorylee--I recently switched from 4.0 V6 Ford Exploder to a V8 GMC Yukon, and amazingly enough, I am getting better gas mileage in the Yukon. Not that it matters, because the Yukon rocks and the Exploder sucks ass, so I would be happy either way.

2.09-2.19 Here in NH/Mass. FKAgobucks- My F150 gets better mileage than my sister's 4.0 Exploder. I have a 5.4 V8 and get 18mpg, she gets 17. Apparently her V6 has to work harder than my V8...

Crump'sBro,
Might that have to do with a heavy foot?? Most chicks I see in SUV's tend to step down a little hard. I think I got all of you guys beet at 14mpg's in my Dodge w/ a 5.9

No, it's not a heavy foot. 4 litre Explorers are pigs. They are as far from aerodynamic as a car can get. She doesn't call it the XBox for nothing. Underpowered vehicles are always gonna drink gas. My old Toyota PU(before Tacomas) had a gutless 2.4L 4 banger and was lucky to get 23mpg.

it's a 99, I really do love it but as soon as I am done paying for it I really need to buy a little good gas mileage hooptie so that I am not paying $40 a week to go to work and back.
I know what you mean about the underpowered vehicles though, I used to have an s10 blazer with a 2.8. It was slow and got crappy mpg's.

I drive a 1997 F150 5.4 liter 4X4.
I get 15 mpg since most of it is short around town jaunts. I might make it 17MPG on a straight highway run.
The truck is paid for and very reliable, I would not buy a new vehicle even if it got 30MPG.
Gas here, New Orleans, has been going up about 10 cents a gallon a week. We are now at $1.91.

I give up. This board is too hard to understand.
it's still 2.14 here near Green Bay. Gas is cheaper near Chicago.... go figure.

My wife bought gas today.
It is down to $1.84.
Maybe a small correction to the Memorial Day hike?
