[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1099216, member: 14668"] No...your lifestyle dictates what vehicles you [I]choose [/I]to buy. If you [I]choose[/I] to buy a gas hog that is certainly your right, but you cant turn around and complain about the cost of filling it up. Choices have benefits as well as consequences. FYI I also own a '96 friend-250 4x4 with only 125,000 original miles on it. Its paid for. Its got a 351 V-8 and it gets about 12MPG. If I need to haul or tow something, or if I need 4-wheel drive for the snow, I fire it up with no worry about how much it costs. Otherwise, it sits. I put less than 2500 miles a year on it, at that rate with basic maintainence it will still be running strong long past the point where I am too old to drive it anymore. [/QUOTE]
