Oh, yay! *claps*

I have been waiting for someone to write a gas prices/Impala fic. Love the banter between the boys; Dean being all frustrated and Sam doing his thing where he throws out suggestions even though he doesn't really like them himself. ;-)

It was only a matter of time. :^)

Oh yeah, Sam knows he's messing with Dean. Keeps him on his toes. Thanks for reading!

*honk honk - the funny noise my nose makes when i'm blurting out laughs*

this was, ahem, priceless. and original, because it's totally relevant, totally believable, and totally them. great dialogue, and i can see Dean squeezed onto the bus/train/whatever, between the old lady with the blue-rinse hair and the orange shopping bag, and the fat guy munching on Cheetos between stops. dean'd be grimacing at sam ('this was your idea, doofus') and sam would be surreptitiously trying to poke the grip of the sawn-off back into the duffle...

maybe it's time to convert the Metallicar to LPG. it's a v8, yeah?

i loved it. thanks for the great read :D

Hey, I'm glad you liked it. I really enjoyed writing it. Another alternative I didn't out in the story is a facetious suggestion from Sam to install solar panels on Metallicar's roof -- another idea Deano would immediately vote down.

Especially considering 67s average roughly 10 MPG, Dean's wallet definitely has to be hurting. @_@ Poor guy.

Seriously! I know there's no on-camera explanation right now, but there could be some interesting possibilities in the fourth season.

I'll be upset if Sam doesn't drive the Impala in season 4. :[

Hey, at least you weren't out of the loop on this one. Re: Dark Angel: Sha! Isn't it everyone's?

Or nuclear flying cars! Wait, weren't we promised those in the 1950s? :^) I'm happy you liked it.
