Sorry, I dont get it....

ANYWAY, as I was saying.....

Why buy a Z06 if your worried about gas mileage??
The car gets a lot better mileage than either of my other vettes and a smokin lot better than my Suburban. BUT thats far from why I bought it, how many of you would drive your cars less if the price of gas doubled or tripled?
So what can you get for 3 bucks these days??
A pack of smokes is about the same as a gal of gas
3 pencils
1 roll of generic duct tape
1 can of deoderant
1/2 movie ticket
1 issue corvette magzine
(heres a good one for you) 3 bus tokens


Yup all great stuff, you better save yer money and park that Z. Go ahead and wave as I pas you in your honda, I might wave back.
