I know mine did, I drove a grand cherokee with the 4.0 I6, never even had to worry about gas money back then. Now, with the 350 and 2.50 for gas and a 35 minute commute each way from school, it makes a difference.

2.21 for the "cheap gas" here. Ever since hurricane dennis entered the gulf and oil rigs had to be evacuated, the price went up as much as 20 cents. Now this is 2 weekends in a row we have storms in the gulf, i would hate to see if this lasted all summer and the price of gas kept goung up. the worst part of it all is, they claim we do not use the oil and gas from the gulf of mexico, but the price is surely going up. someone somewhere is feeding us a line of BS!

Went to the lake a few days ago and gas was around 2.50 for 93 on the way up there. While at the marina it was 3.15 for 93 and 2.99 for 87!

i need a raise.

may have to down grade my performance just to afford the cheaper gas.
Ahhhhhh yes, those were the good days. Lol 93 now is I believe around 3.60. Crazy how much gas goes up over the years.

Got to thinking about it after reviving this thread, not jus real sure how much 93 is. Never really pay attention, gotta have it regardless of what you drive.
