By the way. staying here on JSH sounds good, seeing as how I don`t have to go back to work till, Feb,1st. I`m on medical leave because I broke my leg. The only time I go out is for beer runs, cigarette runs, of course food and go to therapy..Physical that is..Those of you that know me, already know that the mental therapy ain`t gonna help me Hope ya`ll have a good one..Stay warm..Keep hydrated 12 ounce curls baby.

About 40 miles north of Chicago in Gurnee, IL I paid $3.29 for premium @ BP Amoco. I have to use 93 octane because my car has a 200hp 2 liter 4 with 11:1 compression. 0-60 in 6.3 seconds. 22 mpg city. 29 highway.

Its hovering around $3, just depends on which gas station I goto. This sucks because my job depends on me driving to all parts of the state (and I only get paid 30 cents a mile) so its taking a huge chunk out of my budget

Gas prices don't matter to me much. I work 14 days a month and my job is 2 miles from home. Thats 56 miles a month plus shopping for food 1 mile from home.

Study last yr. said American's won't start to really conserve till gas hits $4.00 per gal. We are the most wasteful nation on this planet. I think you can expect gas to hit that sometime this yr. I have been learning to conserve more for the past couple yrs. Can't get it done one way, they will get it done the other. Just my thoughts.

I think people will start to realize that global warming is A FACT If gas was $5 a gallon, it would make people think when buying the next gas guzzler. I sold my 2004 Toyota Tundra crew cab Limited, TRD 4X4 that got 10-12 MPG For a 2007 Honda Civic Si sedan, fast, fun, good MPG. About double the Tundra.

Not to mention I drive for my job as well, and I DON'T get a kicker for gas. I get staright up minimum wage. On the highway I get about 10 miles to the gallon. During work I go through about 1/4 tank per night.for just 14 or 15 miles (and that includes back and forth to work itself)

I stopped for gas this morning -- $3.02. Coming back, two hours later, the same station -- $3.19. It's like they have a machine that just makes up numbers....

You could almost triple your 10mpg.

3.05 just yesterday here just outside philly. Gas is expensive in Europe due to taxes levied on it which accounts for about 75% of the cost of it. From what i've heard the public transportation is excellent as opposed to many areas of the US where you practically need a car unless you live in a metro area. Thanks for this, GTTT -- I had no clue as to why the UK's prices were so high.
