gas prices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[04silverevo04]

:buck2:


so how is everyone handling the damn gas prices!!!!.... is everyone still pumping 91???

[BLKevoIX]

Im still pumping 91 but it f**ken sucks.

[PineApple]

This same topic has about 4 threads now. Still pumping the 91. Filled up last night 13gallons @ 4.55. I'm over it. I'm getting 22MPG right now no boost.

[kimletrim]

You basically don't need to shop around anymore...you're screwed regardless of where you go.

[choicelaw]

Yup. If you are really hurtin' folks need to change cars, driving style or get a siphon. . . :twisted:

lol, were you thinking of just pumping 87 to save some money?

you do know you can get tuned for 87 right?

[PineApple]

You hear about the guys who were draining newer cars plastic gas tanks. stabbing a hole in the bottom of them, since they are plastic, and ganking all the fuel, lulz. Sucks nuts when it comes to that.

I'm over the gas prices, I still drive everywhere that I want to go just doing the speed limit and shifting early.

[GokuSSJ4]

gas prices fking suck!!!
the price we pay at the moment is near 100 octane level back in the days.. never imagine the price of regular gas would reach this high so fking soon!!!! :buck2:

[Evokid]

4.50 a gallon over by my work. So who's starting to use arco gas lol? I'm still going for quality

i think i might have to break my habit of mixing fuel (76, mobil, costco, and shell) and just use costco...

[PineApple]

No arco for me cause they don't accept my credit card so that will never happen. Plus that shit is garbage. Burns way to fast. Ill stay at the 76 station right down the street.

sorry i know its probably a dumb question but how u doin no boost... i actually manage to make a whole tank last a whole week... shifting at 2500 is that wat u mean at no boost?

[ohhgyeahfasho]

just filled up 4.62 a gallon at chevron..f@cking gay!! :( i didnt even get a full tank of gas..

[04silverevo04]

i say we organize a strike!!! the last one worked n hurt the gas companies pretty bad.. n prices drop alittle... whos down to make this happen?

[mystik_khmer]

i filled her up.. 54$ bucks argh!!

[funks]

It will definitely be 5$ by July 4.. Â* Nice thing about it is that traffic's been much better - less people on the road..

I've been scoping out a Honda Civic 199X already - 38 MPG FTW. Â*The EVO will end up being a garage queen (which is fine by me).

No boost I mean by staying in vacuum. On the streets I don't shift past 3K and it takes me awhile to get up to speed. Lately on the freeway I've been doing 65MPH which is just about 3K on the IX 5 speed. When I filled up last night I got 22.455603MPG or something like that when I divided my mileage by how much I put into my tank. Just stay out of boost and keep the rpms low and you will get half way decent mileage. I want to achieve moar and I am hoping I can with this tank as I just changed my fluids and plugs. Watch your gauge, stay in vacuum. Once it hits that 0 you are done for.

I'm not down for a strike. It is absolutely necessary for me to drive and have fuel as I am a plumber and am always driving here and there. I can't afford to make my car a garage queen... 1. Cause I am still paying for it and 2. Our garage is full of random bs. I just fill up and go on with my day.

Yeah, Im sure it wll be 5 bucks by the 4th. Im glad I filled the boat up last year so that shit has a full tank. 52gallons @ 89 octane is gonna kill fwith the current prices but eh, you gotta pay to play. I haven't noticed less people on the road, traffic is still gridlock even morning and night during my commute to santa monica and back.

If he is getting 270 MPG there are a lot more people that want to know. Â*How about 270 to a tank? Attention to what you are typing for crying out loud!!!!

[j_nizzle]

I heard we're gonna hit 5 a gallon very soon...........................


with that said, i try to think optimistically about it. at $5/gallon = less people on the road = better chance of freeway commuters to stay in high gear, cruising = better gas mileage.

yes, you will be spending more on gas but hell...cant beat the open road

(yes, i know my views and opinions of flawed but you have to imagine that people elsewhere in the world are paying double what we are paying for gas)

You guys should consider purchasing a Daily Driver thats good on gas....Honda's have always been known for good fuel economy in its stock form...

I just purchased a 92 Acura Integra (Yeah, I know...) that gives me 32~ Hwy mpg on 87 octane...I don't think anything we do to the Evos can beat this....and the car only cost me $2k....

I work 45 miles 1 way from home....thats about 1800 miles in one month....thats alot of miles...Basically I went from spending $525+ month to about $250 a month...thats $275 in saving a month on gas...this car will pay for it self while saving me the miles on my Evo...

[CASH$ MONEY]

yeah, it doesnt matter if you get on boost constantly... or w.e


its just not worth Daily driving a evo anymore.


esp, with cops and gas prices these days. And the Price of gas is only Rising...

California has what they call "gourmet gas" they try to put all these oxygenated additives on it to make it cleaner, only to make that SHiat worse. The C.A.R.B. (california Air Reseach Board) and the government is worried about preserving about a freaking "mosquito" in Alaska. This is why we havent freaking tapped into our resources and choose to pay $138 and change for a barrel of crude oil. If "we" the people organize a day without "GAS" the govt and the OPEC will definitely feel an impact. I agree on passing out the word in other forums and organize a "day with out gas". Its time that we get our voice across or nothing will be done...might as well just bow our heads and take it up the A$$.

Who tuned your car???

[MonstarEvo]

I was predicting this was going to happen early this year. So, 3 months ago since my prediction was slowly becoming a reality of gas prices rising, and maybe hitting close to $6.00 by mid summer. I bought a Toyota Yaris. The Evo sits in the garage and is only driven on weekend pleasure drives. If I had continued to use the Evo as a daily driver to and from work...monthly gas cost for it reached ~$500!!! For those not familiar with the Toyota Yaris. It get's really good gas mileage if all you're doing is commuting on the freeways with a little bit of city street driving. The actual motor on the Yaris is the same gas motor used in the Prius minus the electric motor and the fugly shape of it. And good news for me is that I'm keeping miles off the Evo, paying $250 on a new car that cost $170 a month on gas to fill up. I get a new car easy on my pocket....so I guess I'll be tuning the Yaris to get the most miles out of it....I've evolved into a HYPERMILER!!!!! There is actually a following for the Yaris with tuning parts to back it up too....There's a girl with a TRD supercharged yaris that's getting 350 miles on a full tank of regular gas...and she boostin hard. :smitten:

[MitsEvoIX]

Thanks God I only drive my evo during the weekends. But yeah, the gas price is really getting out of control now. Someone gotta do something about it. Maybe gas strike on certain day, protest in front of the white house or something like that.

[tarmacMR9]

I say WE all get together as a forum and organize a day..(soon) and spread it all to other forums.
MODERATORS? can we do something like this?

[Cedia619]

[Evolutionized]

closest gas station to my house 4.99!! woot and its another 10 miles to the next station which is 4.88..

kill me noww

[fastkevin]

$4.79 in buena park today, total of $52.65 and my gas tank wasn't even totally empty. wtf?

Try finding a gas station that actually holds the pump open until $100 (most of 'em shut off at $75), and only getting a half tank. Last diesel I got was $5.26/gal.
My ZX-14 costs me $40/week in gas, and my truck costs me $200. it's an easy choice to make.

[blkside]

Yeah I make that decision daily with my suburban so it has LOW miles... It gets driven very occasionally and the Outlander gets the abuse.. it looks like it will get oil changes every 2 months or sooner with the miles going on her...

[SeeNoEVO]

i get about 320 to the tank..... :D...90% freeway miles though and I take it to shell or chevron with 91 ONLY!! I keep it under 3k and shift slowly around 2500 RPMs though. On the freeway I never go past 65 MPH and do about 5-10 miles under speed limit on the streets. :crazy2:

We need to find a way to make oil out of sand.


Canada has a LARGE field of oil sands already. Takes a lot of heat to get the oil out of it though and they are rather remote. There's shale oil here in the states that we can't touch due to the damned environmental nuts also. These idiots are the reason gas is so high.

Hope everyone likes being GREEN. It's out of control and needs to be put in check REAL SOON. Doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon though.

yea but your allowed too lol

[EvilAWD10]

when i first got my supra i was pretty happy. now i find myself driving my girls civic instead. cant enjoy it at all. my battery even went dead because i never use it anymore

[j_nizzle]

Gas prices are getting ridiculous...That's it, I'm on my way to get me a new DD. A 2008 Honda Fit...Let's see if the Honda dealership can top the service that I received from South Coast Mitsubishi.


the fit wont help you much...only 35 mpg max on the highway. a corolla is cheaper and more reliable (from a standpoint of more people have worked with the motor...they've used the same motor for 10+ years).









guys im just kidding!!!

lol

i would never do that

today i got 250 for full tank


i get on average now...270-280 with my mpg 91 tune.

in the next few months, i converting my evo to limp mode and trying to see if i can break 300 to a tank with 87 octane.


Who tuned your car???


a friend of mine. in laymen's terms: he just leaned out my cruising rpms (2500-3500 rpms). i went from a 21 mpg average on my all-out performance tune to 24 mpg overnight. when i hypermile and try to stay on the freeway all the time doing 70-75 mph, i get 26 mpg.



I say WE all get together as a forum and organize a day..(soon) and spread it all to other forums.
MODERATORS? can we do something like this?


i say you grow up and deal with it. no matter how well you think you can organize a strike, it wont fkn do shit! so we get a few hundred car guys to not pump one day...what about the thousands of other people who drive and pump? think about it.

yah i know...i have people who switch lanes to past me every couple of seconds..and I have people who just tailgate me. It's hard but I restrain myself because I know I'd be taking away an extra couple of miles by doing that.

I just want to take off on some people sometimes, but I'd be paying it at the pump.

I havent gone WOT or even past 3k for almost a month now.

[wickedIX]

Same here...I am always being passed by ricers :2funny:

[MitsEvoIX]

The gas price are taking away my joy of driving my evo.Â* Before I always drive the evo when I go out, now I have to think really hard on whether if I should drive my evo, my girlfriend's tc, or my parent's crv.Â* If I gonna drive slow to save gas I might as well drive a slow car....lolz.

[j_nizzle]

i hate driving like a granny but 178 to half a tank today! w00t! im looking to get at least 270 to a tank this week.

[djspeks]

^ man...it's hard to drive like a granny. Doesn't it piss you off when you get on the onramp? slow!! haha

[MitsEvoIX]

Now I get thumb down from the ricers not becasue they are jealous of my evo, its because I drive to slow.......

[CRX2EVO]

There's still too much traffic. Gas prices need to go up!

[CASH$ MONEY]

lol :2funny:

[PineApple]

I am getting about 260 to 12 gallons these days but yes, it involves driving 65 on the freeway and shifting at 3K on the streets. I don't care. I don't care when people ride my ass on the freeway when I am doing 65, I know I am slowly killing them with my exhaust the more they tailgate me. Ill continue this as I drive to santa monica everyday for work and I live in West Covina.

i just got the most i've seen outta my tank. 332 miles and the light just barely hit yellow. I could've gone an extra 20 miles but decided to stop. I get about 26-28 miles MPG. This is freeway miles BTW. Havent tested street miles yet.

[PineApple]

wtfuck? That is a shit load, I've NEVER seen 300 and I've driven 65 from here to San Diego and back, all freeway, Lucky you. Owell.

[CASH$ MONEY]

ummm ^^ Bulllshit

[ev0ninerr]

I know evo's that can do 300+ on a tank. It's not b.s. if he's modded and tuned correctly.
Now I wish I got near that much.

[CASH$ MONEY]

basically this. if you drive your evo so slow, and try to get any CLOSe to 300 miles on the tank, you shouldnt be driving a evo/ or owning a evo.

Why not? I drive it slow on the streets and the freeway getting the best mileage possible BUT I do go to the occasional track days, use the awd in the snow and in the sand with my All Season tires, and use it to lug my surfboards around.

[ev0ninerr]

haha, you have a point there. Yet everyone drives differently and that's another thing. I drive mine about twice-four times a week, but when I do I have a purpose to drive it, not just to get to and fro. I'm one boost happy mofo regardless of gas prices.

[SeeNoEVO]

wtfuck? That is a shit load, I've NEVER seen 300 and I've driven 65 from here to San Diego and back, all freeway, Lucky you. Owell.


no that is not shit load.....just accelerate slowly to about 2500k and shift slowly. Then keep it at 60Â* miles or about 3/4 between 2k-3k on the freeway and you will get past 300.Â* Now dont do this a couple times and then go about your ways. You have to do this from the full fill-up to the end when yhe yelliw light comes on.

Like I said, it's hard sometimes for me, but I havent gone past 3k for a couple weeks.



ummm ^^ Bulllshit


Believe it cuz I achieved it. I will take a pic this coming weekend and show u. I will try to get to 340 miles, but no promises.



basically this. if you drive your evo so slow, and try to get any CLOSe to 300 miles on the tank, you shouldnt be driving a evo/ or owning a evo.


sorry but unlike you, i do not have the cash money. :D I get the best mileage i can because gas prices suk.

[GokuSSJ4]

i just saw 5.10 a gal... fk!!!!!!
this is insane, I can only imagine things by the end of summer time..
time to buy a bike or something... :(

[ev0ninerr]

I'm seriously contemplating, walking or biking to the train/bus station.

[PineApple]

I don't even care about the prices, just want better mileage. 2500K on the freeway is below speed limit, which can create more accidents by going so damn slow. Even at 65 I feel like I am going to slow.

Owell, I will continue to just fill up and do what I gotta do!

well like i said, if you want the best mileage try my technique. All i can say is it takes patience. And no, i disagree. Its the people who haul ass serving between cars because they woke up late for work are the ones who cause more accidents.

People past me all the time. I always stay on the furthest right lane and I still have people pasting me. When there's a car going slower then me from behind or in front, I am thankful. But other than that, I dont care if i go slow. When i make more money, or if someone tailgates me for a while, yhen i have a bit of fun.

[Thero]

$5.10 a gallon? This is getting way to far out of hand. Think about it.

A guy that makes $8.00 an hour (Minimum Wage) and drives 40 miles to work 1 way for a total of 80 miles a day and lets say he gets 25mpg out of his vehicle. He has to work 2 hours at work just to pay for the trip to work and home in gas. All in All Bull Shit.

[CASH$ MONEY]

^ thats why if you dont make enough money to pay for gas prices, you shouldnt have an evo in the first place.

People who were struggling before will hurt even more now. People who were finally starting to make it by getting their savings established and extra money to put away in retirement funds, have been hit hard as now that savings money is going towards living/commuting expenses. Owell, Life Goes On and we Move On.

Evo or not, some people need bigger vehicles to successfully do their work. Some companies need big trucks to haul trailers with quipment around. This issue affects just about everyone whether they get better mileage than an evo or not. But like I said, Life Goes on and you Move On.

[skylinefolife]

Im betting 6.50 by 4th of July...


Yay! GOD bless America!

[fastkevin]

Yeah.. high gas prices do effect every aspect of our lives. Damn near everything we consume spends time on a truck. If it's foreign made, it spent a lot of time on a boat. If you had to have it quick, it spent time on a plane. All these things burn fuel.
I have a question that so far I haven't found an answer for: We've spent billions and billions of our own money, rebuilding Iraq's infrastructure, economy (including it's oil production), and protecting it's people. Uh, why don't we take some of their oil to start paying us back? I mean, if we were able to see the future, and back then decided to spend the money on heading off this economy crash, and the ass-raping we're taking in the oil market, we'd be in a much better position. We can't see in the future, and instead spent the money on Iraq. Just so happens we restored their ability to generate a commodity that they have a lot of. Oil. We also (whether you believe in the war or not) relieved a lot of people from the oppressive regime they were living under. Why aren't we as a country standing up and screaming for some payback(oil)?

[PineApple]

This country is so ass backwards. I'm ready for "change" rofl. One thing I don't understand is spending money on space. that is one thing that still I feel in my opinion is a waste of money. Spending billions of dollars a year to go to Mars, for what? To send back pictures of nothing.

[ev0ninerr]

I know that they're looking to send people over to Mars, but holy crap they need to get their priorities right and spend some of that research money on the economy.

[PineApple]

but Mars for what? what the hell do we need to do at mars? If there is anything valuable, it CANNOT be worth the cost of flying way the fuck out there and returning it to earth, its not possible. I do not understand why the fuck we go to mars. I can understand some aspects of Space Exploration for satelites and shit, but don't we know everything we need to know about the satellites and whatnot? end it.

[ev0ninerr]

Satellites are already fully covered in terms of sending them up the most efficient way. Going to Mars, a hell of a lot more crap needed to figure things out. I have a buddy that designed one of the parts on the last rover or explorer they sent up there and man do they have the funds. They have money to pay separately the a-hole scientists that can't work with other people. Along with that, they keep hiring part-time people over summer for a good amount. WE need that money right now, not for the future as of yet.

[MitsEvoIX]

I don't care if its mars, saturn, or moon......as long as there is cheap gas then I am willing to go and live there. HAHA

Rofl. so no oxygen but if gas is 20 cents a gallon you'll still go? No oxygen no detonation.

[wickedIX]

And I'll bet the price of oxygen there would surpass fuel prices here ;)

I second this.Some people are live-n in a "CHAMPAIGN DREAMS WITH BEER MONEY" life
If you guy's can't afford gas save your pennies and buy a cheap gas saver car!!!
STOP BITCHING.IT IS WHAT IT IS!!!

[skylinefolife]

I agree with that whole space program bullshit. Were not going to mars, we are not leaving this planet. Shit, we haven't sent another person to the moon. I think they need to get the priorities straight. This sucks.

I wonder what will McCain and Obama say about the oil crisis? What is the 'solution', if any...

As far as I can see, we are dependent on foreign oil and need to produce our own fuel. A renewable fuel, it must be renewable.

[nomex13]

I just read this. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080616/ap_on_bi_ge/oil_prices.

I guess the saudi production may go up 2% for june and july. On the bad side the dollar fell again so probably price increases since the dollar is connected to the oil prices.

Dead Serious.... 103 miles round trip 2 work... 5 days = 515 miles... in one tank... filled up 15.190 gallons (17gal. tank)@ 4.63 = $70.47
that gives me 33.9mpg's on a 4 cyl. accord. 95% freeway miles with minumum traffic, cruising at 75mph. Not bad. Saves me a lot of money. I'd be broke if i was taking my evo. I had to fill up every other day.

http://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/2008/07/ky-woman-charge.html?csp=34

A Kentucky woman was charged last week with trading sex for gasoline, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Police say Angela Eversole accepted a "$100 gas card and other gifts" from an Indiana man she met for a "sexual liaison" Friday night at a hotel in Fort Wright, Ky.

The paper says Eversole was charged with prostitution and operating a business without a license. Kenneth Nowak, 50, was charged with promoting prostitution.

WCPO-TV says Eversole's boyfriend denied the charges. "She's wrong for cheating on me, but that's what she was doing, so far as that goes. She definitively isn't a prostitute," Anthony Schaffner tells the station.
