Marcarl Posted February 20, 2011 Share #5 Posted February 20, 2011 It's interesting seeing those numbers, and then to think that on the whole they are mostly all the same makup,,,,, you know, water with an additive, made so that the selling of water can get a higher profit margin. Now water in a bottle really gets me,,,, sure it has uses and I wouldn't want to do without it, it's a lot better than pop if you need to drink while on a MC for instance, and where would fill up your container? you can't always trust the tap so to speak. But people thinking that bottled water is clean?????? you're much healthier drinking from the tap!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But people thinking that bottled water is clean?????? you're much healthier drinking from the tap!!!!!! What would have happened when you were a kid if someone had tried to sell you a bottle of water for a buck??? Course we had a dug well on the farm for drinking water and you never tasted any better. You could always catch a cow and get a drink straight from the faucet.. Don't tell me I'm the only one that has done that??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Bob Posted February 20, 2011 Share #7 Posted February 20, 2011 Sure was nice filling up the bike yesterday, $13 for the last 200 miles I rode it. As opposed to the Venture Snowmobile I've been running lately, about $20 every 50 miles. I wonder if it would get better mileage on printer ink:confused24: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
