I just got home from a long week at work, spent some time with the family and had to go run an errand.
It's a beautiful cool evening so I took the roadster and ran my errand, then found myself cruising around, blasting through some curves, powering out of some smoking oversteer and generally loving life. With the wind in my hair and the sound of the V8 through those big side pipes it was glorious. Had a big grin on my face the whole time.
I really don't give a damn what the gas cost.  |

Up here in Southern Ontario Canada, 91 octain runs just under 7 bucks an imperial gallon. If you are lucky, That might get you 9 - 12 city miles a gallon. That is if you are bein' a good boy. I built mine as a looker. I don't care what it costs to drive. I do mind that Nitto 555's, 315 R35 17 cost almost a weeks pay. Each!! I will not run Bauld-dinies. they are too greasy. Not to mention driving in wet weather tends to be stressful.   |

Apparently no one here owns a boat, try feeding twin 540ci engines, when I bought it gas was under $2.00 a gallon, and with 200 gal fuel cap I still use it and enjoy it just not as much, and no where near as often at wot for extended periods of time as I use to.

Do Leaf owners worry about power outages?

Nope. As with my mustangs cobra and now Ford gt gas price was inconsequential to the experience of taking it out.

A lot of years ago when gas prices started to climb over a $1.00 a gallon yes I did worry some. Then was newly married, a child on the way new house payment, always needing to have hotrods and a Harley and making less than $2.00 an hour. These days it is part of having to live in this world.
