i drive a TDi that runs on biodiesel. . .and while biodiesel is not the savior some claim it is, it's certainly better than a hybrid in terms of cleanliness, etc.

I think I'm gonna have to buy either a motorcycle or a fuel-sipping 4-cylinder to save money on gas this summer. $85-$90 every week and a half to fill my X5 is pretty crazy.

I would cop an EG or EK with the quickness, but knowing me, I'd mod that bitch. And then it will get stolen the next day. lol.

my next car's gonna be a civic, beat the hell out of it and still get 25mpg. i hve to drive 65mph on cruise control for long distances to get that in my car lol.

Bio-fuel is supposedly controversial because all the greenhouse gasses created to grow the corn are just as bad.

LOL dude i know how it is im afraid to park my civic to get some damn L&L's! i didnt know you were out in mira mesa youre all close. well then kill switches will help so will a garage. unless you keep it stock looking/primer. also leaving a target from the shooting range in your front seat tends to scare people away.:p

LOL. I'd garage it, but hell no I'm not demoting my X5 to the driveway/curb just to keep a Civic from getting stolen. I'm probably gonna cop an E36 sedan or maybe a MK2 GTI. We'll see how things go though.
