Now Goops idea is better. Get the gas free, then sell it at $1.70. You'd make more like $93 per 55 gallon drum.

Kinda puts the whole thing in perspective. I use about 11 gallons per week. So I spend about $100/5 weeks on gas. I just don't think it's *that* bad yet.

No disrespect just a joke..
My 5 liter ahh hates me now...Or I hate it, 1 or the other..
I spend about 40 bucks a week right now getting to school and back and thats jsut from home to school and lunch then back for M-Thursday. Its killin me, although I do use 93 octane at like 2.00 dollars a gallon so that's why I hate it.

But yeah, pump it out and get it for free, screw selling it
