As the resident car salesman here, let me mention that some companies are trying to issue cars that can run on the E85 (ethenol) fuel. The new Tahoe for example, will run on only 4 or 8 cylinders under certain conditions and is also capable of running on E85. So, even with a regular gas car you'd be ok with some of the newer stuff. And whoever mentioned that hybrids don't save money is correct. You'd have to own one for about 10-12 years in order to save the cost of gas. There's quite a bit of smug that's making its way to Boise believe it or not.

When you play drums you have to have something big... :lol:
carter needs a flat-bed for his kit :D

Then the band might as well just play on that damn thing then. One would think Carter drives a Cadallac or something. I wonder if any of them drive the Scion XB which is a fairly big vehicle.
