You know it's funny I took the SLK55 out the other day for errands because it gets better fuel mileage than the SUV......well it was sunny too.

We're in the mid $4.30s now. I just keep thinking of Poland, $9.50-9.75 per.!! It helps a little.

We're up to $4.47 here on US military bases. Yet we're supposedly not supposed to pay taxes on goods here...yeah, right. AAFES sucks! (Army & Air Forces Exchange Services)
