I'm quickly becoming even more glad I took out the SS NoWall box...lightened the car by about 200 lbs or so...My gas mileage has more than doubled...

As far as the prices,I think Rob V.O. will very soon become my very very very best friend...Those of you who know him and can put two and two together, you'll know what I'm getting at..

The way I see it the cost of everything and anything will always go up. I will not live my life trying to save a buck. If it costs more you gotta make more $$ . That's all there is too it. I refuse to drive some piece of @#it car will no power or style.

But they don't make any of the gas we use.

We only import 2% of the gas we consume.

Ins't that nice.

It cost me $225 to drive to Kelowna from Prince George @ 8-9 hours in my truck and another $200 to get home not to mention the trip to Vancouver (in the Civic $70 roundtrip), multiple trips from Summerland to Kelowna, Penticton, Oliver, Vernon and Kamloops. My fuel costs for my Aug11th to Aug30th holidays was almost $1000 @ usually $108.9 litre. The SBC swap might increase my fuel economy or I might just have to buy a more fuel efficient vehicle.
