Gas around here is still $4/gal. $20 will get you 5 gal. At 200 mi., that would equate to 40 mpg. [Sniffs the air] Some thing smells [/Sniffs the air]

At an exhaust shop:
"Sure, I'll throw it up on the lift and give you an estimate after you spend three hours on it with a pressure washer."

The 'Manche didn't like that, and it dumped a few cups of coolant in his parking lot.

"You're leaking coolant."
"She does that when she's angry."

Quote: lol... I was thinkin' the same thing... lots of variables missing to this equation... mainly, how much gas was in it when you put 20 bucks worth in... and how much did the 20 bucks get you?
20 bucks around here gets almost 5 gallons. The 200 miles were all highway miles doing 65-70 mph light came on at 180 and it just died from no gas when I got to the pump. That 20 bucks and the 20 both got great mileage. Since then I never got to 100 like usual. I reset my trip everytime I fill so I'd say there had to be around 8-10 gallons.

I wonder if it's autocorrect for "Wrangler" lol

In a similar vein but non-offensive, I had a coworker say "what year is your Wagoneer or whatever it is?"

Don't blame him. Changing a fuel pump on my friend's xj with mud all over underneath it was miserable

I work on my truck; I know it sucks. I was just asking the guy for an estimate, but the timing of the leak made me laugh.
