View Full Version : Why did i buy a 8 TheDopeShow 08-15-2008, 07:28 AM i got my 8 about 2 months ago and have been testin out a 2nd car since then for fuel and commuting reasons. everything ive gotten into to test drive feels nothing like a 8 so i dont wanna buy it. anyone recommend something under $8,000 pdxhak 08-15-2008, 09:05 AM Are buying another car strictly for commuting? if so then $8000 is going to take a LONG time in fuel savings to break even.

My personal plan is to go motorcycle for commuting next summer. laythor 08-15-2008, 09:48 AM hitchhike. It's free and you meet lots of interesting new people.. till one of them kills you and wears your buttocks as a meat-helmet.

I have been quoting those cartoons this week, working road construction on airport runways here in oregon, and NOBODY gets them. Oh well, glad someone out there is crazy like me. OP - Get a bike. They rock. Im about to finish up my streetfighter CBR build, i cant wait, too bad summer is almost over. It gets 40+ mpg. Anijo 08-17-2008, 05:37 AM Anijo - "My thpoon is too big" "I am a Banana"!

LOL!

That's 2K gallons of fuel (oops on the math)you have to SAVE before you start saving money on gas @ $4/gal.
