DEAR GASPIG:

Dunno if you've gotten any Gas Pigs from Australia yet, so I thought I'd drop you'se a line.
I've included a piccie of my truck, which isnt technically a Gas Pig as it's a diesel, but seeing as how it's being replaced by a V8 (308 ci) version of the same thing later this year, I thought it qualifies.
I reckon a sticker on each door would look alright, so if you're feelin' generous send me a couple of stickers about 600mm (2' approx) long and I'll send you some photos of the end result.

If I qualify for some stickers, send 'em to;
Cameron
Cheers,
"Yesterday I knew nothing,
today I know that."

hi Cameron:
thanks! i'll put a couple stickers in the mail to you - can't wait to see the photos!

DEAR GASPIG:

I am all for the fight for cleaner vehicles. My name is Raquel and I am a student at Washington University in St. Louis. I would happily host your sticker on my back window. I would like a regular-sized bumper sticker. Please send me a design if you have one. I remember seeing your last post about skydiving with cars on Slashdot and I thought that was really badass. =)
Raquel

hi Raquel:
awesome! thanks for the good feedback and thanks especially for offering space on your vehicle! i made a cool rear window sticker that's about 24 inches long and 1.5 inches tall - but i also made smaller ones if you prefer. on another note - my niece goes to washington u and i have a lot of family in st. louis! small world!
thanks again!

Hey Joe,
Wow it is a small world after all…
Well, if you would like to send a sticker to my address, here it is:
Also, there is an environmental club on campus that I keep up with. I’m sure they would support the fight against SUV”s. If you would like to send some extra stickers I can pass them on to the club.
Raquel

hi Raquel:
i'll get some stickers in the mail to you... does that environmental group at your school have a website? i'd be happy to send them a bunch of stickers if they wanted them.

DEAR GASPIG: Hello,

I have two cars, One gets ~50mpg and runs on home grown fuel and the other gets
~16mpg. If the latter didn't run well (at 170,000 mi.) I'd get rid of it. The
fact is there is alot of energy inputs locked up in the manufacturing process
that have to be realized B4 it makes sense to trash it. I do, however, realize
and want others to know that I know -- it is a gas pig!

Send me a white sticker and I'll put it on the '90 Toyota 4X4.

You may want to add a forum page to your website --it will drive alot of trafic
back to the site.

Brett

hi Brett:
thanks for the space on the toyota! is mncountryside.org your website? i'll get a sticker in the mail to you. any preference on size?
joe
the Pig


Joe-
mncountryside.org is a project of mine. Well my wife and me along with a few
great funders and partners. We are currently working on a new book for Iowa and
have potential partners in Idaho, Oregon and California.

You have an interesting website, I like the cheeky thing. If you could get some
meat in there to go with the whipped topping in the can stuff, it would be
great!

How much fuel does it take to get you average SUV to 3,000 feet?

Sticker I dunno -- 6 inches or so.

Brett

hi Brett:
cool project! a c-123 gets pretty horrible mileage - but we're hitching rides on flights already slated for drop tests. still, the added weight of an suv chows gas, how much exactly, i don't know. thanks for the feedback about the site - can you explain the meat verses whipped topping part?
thanks!

DEAR GASPIG:

I live acros the street from an elementary school. In front of my house there are "No Parking School Zone" signs every ten or fifteen feet. However, every single morning some Excursion-driving teacher feels a need to park his/her beast butted right up to the edge of my driveway. Any other car may fit into this spot with some grace ... nope - daily annoyance.

Oh - perhaps you could answer a question? I listen to "Prairie Home Companion" on NPR, and they've been on an SUV tirade for weeks now. Is there honestly going to be a tax break given to people when they purchase SUVs, or it that just the fabrication of the month?

Hope that seems worthy,
Amy
„Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold..."
...yeah, thanks, yeats. we'll see about that.

hi Amy:
worthy as can be! stickers coming your way. any size you'd like? as a reference (see the pathfinder on gaspig.com), the rear and front window stickers are large, the side door stickers are X-large, and i also make smaller stickers... thanks for offering to put them up! i really appreciate it.
joe
the Pig


Joe -
You rock - could I get a large and a little? The small acts of deviance, in support of a nobler cause, really do keep a girl's head on straight.
Finally followed the research chains...I understand the SUV tax break now..
Grazie,
Amy

great - i'll get some stickers in the mail to you this week. basically as i understand it - the bigger suvs get bigger write-offs - to help farmers and people who need trucks for their businesses save money? course, in fairness a stock trader would get the same tax break.... tricky legal stuff -
all the best!

Dear Joe:
Great idea! How can we get an anti-suv bumper sticker?
Best alp

hi Al
great! email me your mailing address and the size of sticker you would like and i'll mail one off to you!
joe
the Pig


Good work on your gaspig project. It's interesting to see that the NHTSA, following a counter attack by GM, reiterated its belief that Suv's are unsafe.
I would be glad to reimburse you for any expenses involved.

hi Alfred:
thanks! and thanks a million for giving me space on your car. how big of a sticker would you like?
joe


One suitable for the bumper of an aging Ford Taurus.
Best alp
