Vette(s): Silver 1974 Convertible - L82 4 speed Low miles (was only 8,900 when I bought it in March 2006) - Now 54K miles. Original owner bought it as an investment for son's college expenses. 2008 Jetstream Blue Convertible

I heard on the radio this morning someone complaining that a station was $2.75 Tuesday morning, $3.07 in the afternoon, then back to $2.75 the next morning.

I've just learned to get it when I see it cheap. I use enough that if it goes down, I'll be ready to get more...

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

I paid $3.39 for 89 octane in Sonora, CA in late June. 87 octane was $3.29, so I guess it hasn't come done much in the last 4 weeks.

Really about the same percent of drop here in Upstate NY.

But if you compare it to bottled water, beer, wine or whisky, it is still a bargin.

And I believe our friends in Canada and Europe are paying much more.

How high would it have to get before you stopped driving your Vette for pleasure trips?
