I dont expect the gas prices to go down for atleast 18 months but the one expert says that a barrel of oil should be priced at around the mid $80 mark so maybe it will snap back almost as fast as it shot up in price.

But I think we should gear up and start drilling ASAP and the nay-sayers say we wont see any fuel for 7 years but atleast we will have it in 7 years and I'd bet they'd get it flowing even sooner since they know the money/demand is there.

Anyway it looks like we'll have to do some serious tightening up around our house to be able to get thru this mess.

All this is just hammering the economy and I wonder what the retail sales outlook will look like this christmas.(dismal)

I may still consider a 400cc china bike if the price is right otherwise I'll just get me a drz400 or maybe a V-strom in the not to distant future.
