A popular Middle Eastern/Lebanese restaurant just posted a gas card give away on their adbook page. Reason they did it was due to the full tank of gas siphoned from the catering vehicle overnight.You guys might want to get locking fuel caps.Waiting to pick mine up at a Napa. Have a Ram 1500 with 26gal tank. with fuel being what it is today, spending the $16 for the cap is a smal price to pay when a fill up from 1/2 tank tops north of $50...._____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

tempo_n_groove said:I would love to buy a new 4runner. Have you seen the prices?
I'll wait. Thanks.
How about used prices? They're insane! My wife has a 1999 4-runner with something like 260,000 miles on it. Considering the upgrades on the cooling system and transmission for towing her little Casita trailer, she could easily get $10K for it, maybe as much as 12 to 15K. That's just crazy.

90s 4runner's are great for wheeling. They're also 20+ years old, so finding them in good shape is getting harder.I keep looking for a pre 2004 Tacoma for going exploring (Before they started supersizing tacomas). They're so hard to find them with lower km's and in good shape. They go for a lot when they pop up.Right now I'm rocking my 2007 Ranger 4x4. It has low km's so I'll probably keep it for a while. Might replace it with a Maverick when it gets too old. Every other truck is massive, expensive, and guzzles gas :(0

A few things on that:I would expect inflation to inflate profits over time. Because everything eventually goes up. The input costs, the labour costs, and the cost the good is sold out. If you aim for a 15% or 20% profit margin. 20% of 100 is going to be more than 20% of 90 kind of thing.The other one is there isn't an infinite supply of goods. The question would be, if the price of gas was lower, or the price of other goods lower, is enough being manufactured to meet what the demand is at a lower price point.None of this is pleasant, but the world does have a finite supply of resources and goods that can be produced, so I do feel that plays a part in everything. People generally assume if the money was in the hands of plebs everyone would have more stuff, but I don't generally think it works like that.0

OK. I had mentioned on how I count the ships waiting in the harbor to get unloaded out by the beach by me.
Yesterday I counted the most I ever had. 23 ships in waiting. Most previous to that was like 16 I believe.
That is a whole lot of inflated pricing of products that will be on the shelves soon. Products that may not be sold and cause a price dip hopefully?0 -
Can we talk about oil and gas prices?
Why do people still think that Biden caused inflation and the high gas prices?!?0 -

In Hong Kong & Norway you can pay over $10.00 a Gallon
In Germany it can be around $7.50 and in France about $8.00 a Gallon
Is that, any, U. S. Presidents fault too?Post edited by cutz on0 -
I had a customer on the phone yesterday remark to me how nothing will happen about inflation until we get a new administration.
I was too tired to ask him what a new administration would be able to do about a global problem.
I'm so fucking tired0 -
