I may have already said this but I got my car in 2010 and I used to be able to fill it up for under $30. Now it costs me over $60 and that's when the tank isn't even on E. I'm not trying to drive anywhere I don't have to

Man I just got me a new car last year.

It’s cost about $80 just fill up when it gets to a half.

I get my gas at the Sam’s behind Carolina Place mall as that’s one of the cheapest spots in the city and is in between my job and home

Damn how bad you wrecked your car?

It was my work car and it really wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. I didn’t get hurt other than burning my arm after the airbags deployed.

Any recommendations on areas to move to of working in Davidson. Want to be a little closer to city center but don’t want too long of a commute to work.

How long is "too long" of a commute?

More than like 25 min

You should be able to get between Davidson and uptown in 25 minutes depending on traffic and how close you are to I-77. If you will be commuting at traffic heavy times, you might want to consider somewhere like the Northlake area.

I went to the Fresh 2 Death Exhibit Dupp & Swat had at the Mint. Real nostalgic feel. Not sure if the exhibit brought them out but there were a few cuties there as I roamed the rest of the museum.
