Ahh, diesel! Good stuff.

I'm assuming "Unleaded" means Regular Unleaded (i.e. 87 Octane), so I voted for that.
No, I like women.

Unleaded could be a misleading choice as there is no leaded gas available anymore.

LOL....what's your mode of transportation, rockets? baloons? :lol:

i prefer to do as much walking as i can, if it's not too far away i'd rather walk than take a car and be bothered with parking.

this is including the winter+rain.

there's some advantage to living in the center of town.

what's the differences between regular unleaded, super unleaded, preminum unleaded?

here (Israel) we have:
regular - leaded 96 octane (leaded!!! :o :x :evil: )
green - unleaded 95 octane
super (?) - unleaded 98 octane i think.

You bet! Wear out more boots than tires, too.

Hey, wait a minute. Checked out that pic again - couldn't see my feet sticking out the floor. Must've been changing boots. :roll:

Nuclear....NOT!

Unleaded for my car.

My local gas station has the same price for the Regular Unleaded and the Super (middle of the line) unleaded. Of course, Costco is the king of gas prices.

Nice!
That amazes me, since people wouldn't have any incentive to buy the regular grade in that case...
