LifeIsMoreThanMPG.com

Yes, there is a NEW web site to go to:

lifeIsMoreThanMPG.com

Theres more to life 2

It’s a long one for sure but  think as time goes on this will be a fun pla to get involved with.  Hey look, we may truly be the last generation to experience things that may require using more energy than maybe we should.  Well there it is!  Of course Americans are wired this way… thicker steaks, fatter tires and bigger batteries……… our society has driven ourselves to always want the best or more or special or whatever…………….

SO… lets celebrate this fact…. this site wants to first be a photodump for all things excessive.  Do you have a bass boat with a stupid big outboard?  Do you have 6″ stacks on your tractor pull Cummins diesel?  Theres more to life 3  Phillip, one of our GMC mechanics, a Marine veteran loves his truck and what he can do with it.  You will see some crazy things he does here.  Hey, I can buy a scooter and get what 150mpg?  Or I can sport a 1996 GREEN UlraClassic PIG Harley.  What mileage do I get?  I DON’T CARE!  Theres more to life 1  Plain “Who’s Next” on blue tooth, factory cruise, highway pegs deployed doin the speed limit and lovin life…. MPG?  Who cares!  And the Honda Gold wing there has a VW Solex carb… one big barrel to pour fuel down…. sounds awesome!

It can be fuelish and can also buck traditional norms to make the same statement…… hey, I painted my coach “JayGee” to match my WWII era desert tan side car motorcycle… I thought the palm fron camo was a good touch too JayGee-new-paint-12 How bout putting a weed eater motor on a recumbent exercise bike Theres more to life 4  Can you say Scary at 35mph?

So I’ve shown you mine, so lets see yours!  As we progress with the membership we’ll have hats, T-shirts, more bumper stickers of course  Theres more to life 6  So please spread the word… give us suggestions and for goodness sake send us some pics.  If you “join”…. there’s no cost… believe me there will be perks. 

Hey, 50 years ago “Rat Fink” made a certain style statement… lets to it again …..

Life is more than MPG
.com

The site grows with you so lets get out there do something!!!!!

Our normal dish of fodder will be back tomorrow for your dining pleasure… today it’s roc-n-roll and I can’t wait to jump in there…. see ya later…..
