there was a reason these cars sat on lots in favor of the 4 bangers in the 70s and 80s. any one that is running around with a V8 and a 4 barrel should have already been prepared and accepted the fact that these cars are only going to get 8 or 10 miles a gallon. i daily drive my V8s and i knew many years ago that there will be a day when gas is going to cost me 5 bucks a gallon. even my fuel injected 4.0 jeep cherokee is a gas pig :thumbdow: if i was ever worried about gas in favor of eating, i would have bought a honda accord instead and taken up puzzle collecting. muscle cars and gasoline, whether it is $2 or $7 a gallon go hand in hand and go with the territory. whether you choose to drive them or not is entirely up to you. but if it were me, i would eat ramen noodles so i can fill my tank with gasoline and be able to show off my hard work and enjoy my freedom of expression. to see the smiles and hear the compliments far outweigh the price im paying at the pump. i have a charger and a duster. i pay to run them both in the summer. the last thing on my mind is how much gas i am using or at what cost .
