The GQP: Trumpist Death Cult

Just a thought, Nancy:  carpool

Beyond the importance of looking at the price of gasoline in today's dollars, we also need to address the very real fact that on average cars are over 35% more fuel effficient than they were 20 years ago.

The percentage of family budget spent on gasoline today is functionally the same/less than the average percentage over the past 50 years.  Yes, fuel prices sunk like hell when Covid hit (and demand went down), and went up as we came out of Covid (and demand went up).  But after those two spikes in two different directions, we're pretty much back to normal trends.

Republicans and their voters are fucking dumb.  Shocking news there, I know.

Maybe the bitch is filling up with premium. 

Ah so she drives a German Car?  "Buy American, except for my BMW, and all my MAGA gear.  


Let me guess she wants Biden to seize the means of gasoline production.  She would be totally cool with that too, right?

So hubs wasn't getting it done and she was looking for a sugar daddy? Did you take her to Applebee's and let her pick any dessert? Pics? Did she leave crazy voice mails?

Well yea, her 80k BMW only takes premium. And it is expensive filling that up for a drive to her 3.9mil beach home.  But that is beside the point.  She  is tired of being beat down as a struggling middle class citizen!

Unfortunately the shift to smaller turbo charged engines means many more vehicles run on premium now. Most will run just fine on regular though and adjust timing as needed. I'd bet the majority of people use regular regardless.

My buddy FAFO on a supercharged land cruiser running regular to the tune of an engine replacement. Boom.

I'd tend to expect Germans are even more demanding you follow recommendations on fuel choice and engine oils.

I've said it before, but how cheap do people think gas should be? It's insane the entitlement Americans have for cheap energy prices while wasting money on all kinds of other worthless garbage.

I want it to be dirt cheap because there’s no demand for it since we’re all driving electric cars and we get all our energy from clean, renewable sources.

I am befuddled why people would want to save money on the gas instead of the car.

But yeah, German engineering, love it or don't, do NOT play games with it.

Sure. That's a nice dream I guess. I doubt any of us live to see it.
