Hey, if you're running a V-8, get your diet straight.

Riding along in your automobile,
slow up before you get to the hill.
Riding around sure is a thrill,
the price of gas sure makes me ill.
My truck is a four cylinder,
it treats gas a lot kinder.


Some people laughed at my four,
I  just smiled and hit the door.
Riding around in their great big eights,
gas is so high it discriminates.
Thinking ahead of the politics,
I'm thoroughly familar with their tricks.


Auto industry created 60 miles per gallon cars,
knocked the oil peoples profits to the stars.
So it's profit make up time,
raise the price of gas to make up losing a dime.
Riding along in my little red wagon,
thought ahead not even bragging.

I have a 6 cylinder Jeep and drive a 4 cyl. truck for work, but both still use gas, the diamond of liquid fuel, worth more of late than gold...Fortunately, of late my Jeep sits, while I use my company truck, for work, and anything I can get down while out on the road...thank goodness I have not been using my motorhome, 5 miles to the gallon tops, with the biggest V8 made in its day...the world is changin, I can remember just a few years ago when fuel was but 89 cents a gallon just after 911...you have made a good point here Grady, keep saying what you feel, keep doing what your doing, Peace, Ed & Rufuz
