remember this is in british pounds.. one pound equals 2$ us. i think this officially makes me a baller.



we drove to stone henge and had to fill up on the way back to base. ouch..

heres one of stone henge.. sorry i know its in the wrong section.. but this is baller..

 

damn you win

 

 

how does ur ass hole feel???

 

that is horrible.. i hope you were getting good gas millage

 

LOL HUH????

 

Wow, the most I've ever put into my tank is 41 bucks. Next time you go that far off base I'd throw a couple full gas cans in the trunk.

 

its alright.. alittle sore from yesterday.. i got about 420 miles to the tank. so it did ok.. and that was with a few birsts racing some ass in a bmw 330. he now knows what an acura is.

 

we get gas coupons, but i didnt get any for this trip cause i thought i could make it. i guess me and my wallet know i was wrong.

 

that's alot. stonehedges looks like a nice place.

 

So $100US for 50 litre of fuel?

And I thought we were getting killed on the fuel price in Canada.

I suddenly feel a lot better about being Her Majesty's Canadian subject.

I can drive 20km down south and fill up in the US.

 

LoL, Priceless.

 

what made it worse for him was, as i was passing him my kids waved at him thru the window.. dude just hid his face... poor bastard.

 

pWN'D BMW.........lol good job, would have loved a pic of you passing him up!!

 

lol Wilp...Yeah I was bitching when I filled up Friday and it was $43 bucks.

 

Off topic but what happened to the fence that used to surround Stonehenge? Remember parking on one side of "motorway", walking under road via tunnel and peering over fence erected to keep public from taking souvenirs. Not too long until summer solstice when the hippies gather to watch sun come up thru stones. JC

 

north america has always had really cheap fuel compared to most rest of the world

out of NA = so much teh ownage, yowch!

 

Yeah, cost me $43 at Shell the other day..WTF!!

 

50 bux at 76 in hayward, oh well the price of premium.

 

The light rail system is looking better and better as each day goes on here..but damn...ain't as fun as my car!

Gotta love premium, but hell...it's high either way! I remember doing road trips in the 90's and filling up in Arkansas for 89 cents a gallon...95 cents for premium....I don't think we'll ever see that again. Hell, Europe is like 4-5 bucks a gallon essentially, so I'm really shouldn't be complaining!!

 

straight balling, i'd rather park and walk...realest talk...Lol
I have a first gen and the other day it cost me 45$ to fill up 75% of my gas tank...i literally wanted to cry....why because it was regular gas not plus or supreme that i regularly use.........

 

the price of luxury-s

 

We still have it good. People need to stop complaining cause its only going to continue to go up

 

too true

 

I agree. It is only going to get worse, but If I spent $100.00 filling up my car, I would pitch a fit too. I saw $40 on my last fill up, and I will gladly take that over $100 anyday. Good Ole' cheaper than most USA petro. Thanks for sharing this. StoneHenge looks awesome.

 

Today It cost me 42 dollar
I have to fill 3x a week.
Every time i go to pump Monday(morning) Wednesday(nite) Friday(nite) An this is just to work and pickup my kids from school everyday

 

Heh, I can't complain at all. If all I do is drive back and forth to work, I can go about 2 months on a tank of gas. Even with all the little trips and running into "town" to get stuff I still rarely fill up more than once every 2 weeks.

 

gas prices are going up...time to invade another middle eastern country

i payed $49 and it used to be 1.99 a gallon a few months back.. now its like 3+ bucks. and its only going ot get worse

 

They have TL'Z in England???

 

I agree we have it good (there is a reason) but not picking on you it does not have to go up for now...WE have resources and if we drill where we can and if we would build a refinery now and again our prices would stabilize....(not to mention stopping the funding of the terrorist supporting countries) right now our refinery capability is at a point where we have to import refined oil (gasoline).....

do not fall for the crap of well they pay $4-8 a gallon/liter so I guess $3 a gal is OK…we could do better if our representatives (both sides) quit playing to their base let the market get with it…OH do not forget that the largest profit per gallon is made by our government (state/fed) with no at risk capital...

OK no more rant…

 

$3.51 for premium at chevron friday night when i filled up, 52 damn dollars hurts

 

Yup us Cali guys seem to have it the worst in the U.S. Although I was in Seattle this past weekend and it was almost as high as Cali. Last fill up at Shell was $50 bucks for premium. 50 bucks every other week is starting to kill me financially.

 

im fillin up every week sorry part about going to school and work

 

the fence goes around the whole prarie it lays on.. when you go thru the tunnel it goes under the road, and pops up under the other side of the fence. stone henge is kinda earie... for about 30 min. then it just becomes a pile of rocks. tho it was still cool as hell to see it. next month we drive to lock ness.. lookin for nessy. ill take plenty of pics.

 

no, but im in the military and i shipped mine over there. i thought id be the only one in the uk with a type-s but theres like 5 on base. only one of them is a tl-p. they abuse thier cars tho.. dont wash them, got dents all over them. one guy hit a chuawwa deer (like 2 feet tall full grown ... seriously) but they are everywhere. those and pheasents, and rabbits. im havin fun here tho cause i drive alot and no one knows what kind of car it is.. alot of people look thru the window while its parked, or they look and point at it as im passing them. makes me feel pimp.

 

a few more pics...




the trip there. wrong side of the road.

windsor castle.. aka wil's future house

 

i see that you stay in houston as well as i do. if it cost you $45 to fill up 3/4 of a tank, something must be wrong then. gas station probably wanging you.

 

lol, Thats awesome..definately worth the price of the gas you used to smoke him.

 

When your over in England your amazed at all the small cars on the road and diesels, diesel cars and diesel vans. Then when you go to fill up you realize why. We drove all week in our diesel van before we had to fill it up but it was a shock when we did. It's just a matter of time before it catches up to us here in the US. Makes me glad my TL gets 30 mpg on the highway!!

 

SO true. I'm at a little over $50 for a bone dry fill up. But, it's hard to complain
car wise since the TL is amazingly efficient fuel wise. I recently took a flat all
highway trip and for a 250 mile stretch got in the neighborhood of 29-30 MPG!

And that was cruising 70-75 MPH!

Bet we clip $4 a gallon within a year.
