i started doing something i never thought i'd do EVER, on monday.

I started driving the speed limit. and sometimes under it. I just find a slow car to pace about 2.5-3 car lengths on in the slow lane, and I drive it. usually speed is aroudn 60-65mph. IT SUCKS!

i'm used to cruising at 85+

but I have to do it. can't afford to fill up twice a week anymore, driving the way I normally do with constant downshifting and always in boost.

Chevron on Delaware in San Mateo is still $2.61. Looks like barrel prices are up to $65.

Haha, I thought I was the only that would do that.

I'm starting to go to work early just so I can drive slow and save gas, these prices suck!
