Aloha Pilots,

Personally, im having the last laugh, cause a lot of people made fun of us buying an electric car 7 years ago, then gas went up, and up, and up, now on our 6th EV the beautiful rivian, and now....take that GASHOLES....YEA...I PASS GAS, NEVER WORRIED OUT BAD ELECTRICITY, NO WATER IN THE AMPS.

Last thing we need is to feed bad perceptions of EV owners. Be grateful for your fortune and spare a little empathy for the many people who don't have it.

A friend's brother's boat burns 90 gal diesel/hour

100 octane is always $9.99. It’s a real good value about now

There's a gas station by the speedway up here that has swapped out their gas pumps with ones that have the 10s place because of this. 100 octane is at 9.99 there, but is a matter of time...

I wonder what E-85 is right now. I used to have a Tahoe and filled up with it all the time.. always way cheaper. Burned a little quicker but the cost savings always outweighed that

@Debaser949 My neighbor is a 20 something kid with a construction company, he usually drives to Olympia daily for some jobs, says he's spending 125 bucks every 3 days, he had this distraught look last night, so I tossed him the carbineer said you got it for the week, don't bring it back empty, I didn't go over more than, just drive it like a truck. this is the first brand new vehicle I've ever owned..but...YOLO

Part of the reason I started this thread, I have family in tri-cities, that got a nasty wakey wakey sunday. My sister in law leased a MODEL # back in 19, but turned it in after a month, cause she couldn't get use to the charging vs getting gas, now she'd do anything to have it back. I do feel for a lot of drivers that have like 80+ miles commute every day. my wife is 170 round trip everyday. watching gas go up and up and up at a mom and pop gas station last year was a chuckle, cause again, lot of people thought we were dumb getting a golf cart (ELECTRIC CAR). I didn't think I'd ever see the go juice get higher than hawaii...oh no---it's chasing me.
Stay safe Pilots, yea, you too Seattle neighbors
