QUOTE(maf914 @ Mar 8 2004, 10:21 AM) QUOTE(mikester @ Mar 8 2004, 10:08 AM) I spent $175 to get to work today on the bus and read a book and DIDN'T sit in traffic for a minute. I wish I could read a book while going to work too, but if I had to pay $175 for a one way bus ride I think I'd choose to keep driving my 10 miles! That would add up real fast! $175 x 2 ways x 260 days/year = $91,000! Lots of 914's in that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Mike smart ass... Edited. I meant $1.75... The reason that I have been hearing/reading that CA prices are going up so high is because on 1/1/04 it was now required that the cheaper MTBE additive be removed in favor of the cleaner and more expensive Ethanol additive. Apparently with ethanol it is harder to refine...yadda yadda yadda. It's all crap, the cost of living is different hear than in the midwest. It's not like we pay the same as someone in ohio for homes and such and that GAS is the only thing we're getting the shaft on comparably. But, it's still all crap so I ride the bus. Even if the price of a gallon of gas vs the cost of a one way trip on the bus were the same - I'd still take the bus, it's just easier and I'm sticking it to the oil man. |
