Re: Allentown and gas prices

I have a pin coming to Allentown for me and the seller asked me, the
other day, for an extra $25.00 to cover his gas. So yes, I would say
it's changing people's plans.

I fill my 30 gallon work van gas tank at least once a week. Yesterday
it cost me $85.00. :-(

Make your pin feel like one of the family.

Maybe I'm bucking for CARGP status, or maybe I'm just crazy, but has
anybody else had second thoughts over getting to Allentown and whether
or not to bring the van or the sedan based on how much moola they'll be
dumping in the old gas tank?

I've no plans for getting a game this year, so it will probably be the
sedan. However, I just know that I'll be staring the perfect project
pin in the face with no easy way of getting it home.

Decisions decisions.
