0 newlook 265 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 Wish you were closer up here in N. Calif. ~ I could keep you busy ALL year round with wood work. I try to stay away from wood work as much as possible but our customers draw us into doing it :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 seymore 90 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 Thanks Carlos i'll keep that in mind if i ever move :) Cali just need to lower the gas prices!:lgbugeyes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 newlook 265 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 You are right about the gas. :lgmoneyey I think reg. unleaded is at around 2.68 a gal. Premiumn unleaded is closer to $3.00 a gal. My business partner and I have 5 vehicles in our fleet plus the family car. I guess you could imagine what we spend on gas each week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 seymore 90 Report post Posted March 27, 2005 Yikes...:lgmoneyey I was lucky to find here in Houston $1.71 for reg. unleaded but avg around town is $2.15 or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
