    Gas was unsustainably cheap, so let’s elect a guy that says he wants to be dictator and cause the suffering of millions.

      Me: “it was nice being able to afford to use the machine that we’re required to own because of rigged zoning laws and geriatric politicians.”

      You: “pfft yeah okay Trumper nazi”

      Just say you hate lower-income people next time. It’s a lot quicker and succinct.

          Nearly half of all ICE’s sold in the past decade were turbocharged for better fuel efficiency and fuel savings. Pretty much every turbocharged car requires 91/93 octane “premium” fuel for optimum compression and performance (read: fuel savings, not vroom vroom at redlights).

          what zoning laws

          Do we really need to go through the whole “modern zoning laws force people (in America) to buy cars just to survive because of the lack of public transportation infrastructure” bit?

            Well, you’re wrong.

            There is no zoning law that requires someone purchase a car that needs 93 octane.

            And a used Prius is great
