This blog is exactly what the title specifies, cheap ways to get about. With gasoline going through the roof all over the world for the average person its time to quit thinking in the hotrod frame of mind. Big V8's, wild cams, and huge fuel injectors and carburators that dump fuel in the engine in order to make more power are fast becoming a thing of the past except in industrial and raceing applications. About the only place you will find big wide tires on the roads these days is on a few 4 wheel drive trucks as wide tires cut down on fuel economy, the bigger the tire, the more power it takes to push it hence more gas.
