A small portable compressor to replace the one my brother 'borrowed'

My BIL has "borrowed" a couple already. :P

I have a cheap $50 Viair I keep hidden in the truck though that no one knows about. It's really tiny, but it's been the best damn compressor. It's fast and quiet.

Most of the time when people say borrow in my head I hear 'give it to me forever' and still they talk me into it :GA:  A lot of time I just tell them to keep the stuff and give them my junky spares
I need one tomorrow to run a finish nailer so it was get a new one of lug the four foot tall beast of one I have in the basement out to a jobsite.

Clothes, medicines, some food, etc.  Just some simple survival needs.

Unfair. You don't want to know what it costs around here to fill up a tank.

They're dropping here in Pa as well. I was actually a little below 1/4 of a tank last week and was surprised when the pump shut off before $40.

I just may start driving that little blood sucking vampire of mine a lot more.  8) 

Strangely enough I just hit 42,000 on it and it's been getting about 17mpg instead of 12-13 now. I think it's finally starting to get broken in...after only 20 years.
