Gas prices

C'mon Man.

Gas is near a buck a gallon now. Weather is close to 70F and Pepper is peaking the MPG's. About a nickel a mile. 

And I have to stay home. 

Figures. Right?

Gas is down to $1.54 here.  Sure is nice but since we have been home the past 3 weeks there isn't a need to fill up.  Saving money either way. :)

Yup, no elective surgeries out here. They have multiple areas reserved for the bug, and so far one case in the ICU. It's good to be prepared, but we're going to screw a LOT more people with shutting everything down. 

Totally agree. The economy is screwed no matter how you look at it. Job losses are staggering. I do not believe people will venture out when things begin to reopen. Hiring back employees will be slow to say the least. The stock market is in lala land. Wait until we get through April and the numbers come out. It will be just devastating. There is no economic activity. NONE.

Agree here too. No economic activity and employees will trickle back in step with customers.  Although Congress approved money for employees, it won't be enough to stimulate the economy.

Everyone needs to step up to the plate and buy gas guzzlers. It’s our patriotic duty. If you have a job that is.

I got that covered now.

Still $1.18 at Costco and hasn't moved from the number no matter what the markets are doing. Unsurprisingly all other stations are $1.47 to $2.00 and jumping on the news. I use Costco as a Greed barometer.

The problem begins when people start driving again. Refineries are going to be shutting down here soon I read. Just have no room to store gas. So I believe there will be a supply issue initially sending prices higher like around $4 a gallon or more until refineries can get back online. Enjoy it now. Oh wait. Can’t nothing is open.

    • Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.
    • LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL
    • Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
    • from another thread   Update...although the truck sometimes seems to idle weird and the transmission shift a little weird, I've driven about 7,000  miles and no issues.   However, the way GM has handled my rental reimbursement, the situation when my truck quit, and the recall in general has led me to this point...I have driven a GM vehicle for the past 46 years and unless I buy a C3 Corvette, this is the last GM vehicle I will ever own.
