So President Zero is attempting to claim our Gas Prices are going up because the economy is getting better. Of course he’s saying the economy is getting better because he’s saying the economy is getting better Proof by assertion anyone?
And the 8mpg Truck? Yeah right. My truck gets about 18 in traffic, over 20 on the highway, I’m betting Jay’s Dodge Earthfucker Hemi-Monster doesn’t get much below 15, that’s total bullshit, and nobody says anything, the loyal drones that they are. Keep it classy Barry!

Bullshit… plain and simple…
My 5.4 L V8 F150 (what a mouthful) gets right around 15mpg in town.
My old 1 ton diesel gets 30. It’s a gutless 6.2L, but that’s not the point 😉
I wish to fuck we’d get off our stupid little greenie kick against Diesel engines. I would love to have a high-pressure turbo-diesel engine in a family sedan, and run that cocksucker on treated waste cooking oil whenever I could get my mitts on a quantity. Not to mention the potential of farming our “oil”

But we’ll never get there if the Euro-turds have all the good Oil Burners!
The War Machine (94 F150 with the old 351) gets 11 on it’s worst days.
I did actually have an 8 mpg truck once, named Goliath. 83 Chev 3/4 ton 4 door longbox with a 454 and towing gears. And I miss that demon badly.
Son told me that they have 3rd Generation diesel engines for Ford Rangers in Europe that get 30mpg city; but because of(mainly Californicated, I believe) some states having the idiot laws they do, they won’t import and sell them here.
I do wish the guy’d thought to ask “Hey, Mr. President, if I can’t afford to fill my tank, how the hell am I going to afford your $50k hybrid whatever?”
Or just a Hearty “Fuck You!” when Obama claims his vehicle gets single-digit mileage…and implies that somehow he should get something smaller when I’m sure for a family vacation or even just a one-day picnic that vehicle is stuffed to the gills if he has a large family.
Remember if we are to drive cars that get 30+ MPG, it means big families hauling luggage and supplies will need to bring multiple vehicles.
