I have a twist on all the hub-bub for touting fuel mileage and saving money. I drive an 89' f-150 that don't owe me nothing. It's big, ugly and not real efficent. I beat all that by not driving unless I NEED to. That is to work and back, hauling stuff up to the post office and trips to town.

He had us read George Orwell's book '1984' before discussions on this topic commenced. We are seeing the effects of this trend now 30 years later.
