    West Virginia Gas Price Math...

    Take a look: http://www.dailymail.com/Business/200810310204

    "Warren Estes of South Charleston waited in line at the Rich station in his Nissan Murano for almost 30 minutes before making it to one of the five pumps. Estes and his wife own two SUVs, the Nissan and an Isuzu VehiCROSS. Estes said the Isuzu has never had a full tank of gas.

    'Can't afford it,' he said. 'It costs $120 to fill it up.'

    Estes said he and his wife had just grown accustomed to paying up to $4 a gallon."

    Now granted I didn't go to elementary school in West Virginia, but if the VehiCROSS has a 22 gallon gas tank and they're used to paying $4 per gallon, how is that $120? Tell me that the poor guy was misquoted. Oh, and sorry if I'm picking on one of our members!
