RE: How much does gas effect your hobby?
Matt, I am lucky as I don't have to drive for my work, I work out of the U.S. and the company flies me so i use my trucks for personal use only. I haven't slowed down a bit yet, I hunt about 4 hours from my house and go every other month for a week or so. I will be leaving this Thursday to go try to get a couple hogs or exotics.
I also work in the oilfield, so I can't really complain too much but I got home last Friday and diesel is $4.00 a gallon here, i will say this I have been driving my 74 scout a bunch as gasoline is quite a bit cheaper than the diesel.
