it depends, remember when we had all those posts that it would go up $.25 within a couple days? then prices DROPPED! I filled up at $3.99 last night and drive a civic hybrid so even doing 80MPH I get a good 40MPG and just don't really give a shit. When I drive 55 I get 50-60MPG depending on the road (hilly roads suck)
I think higher gas prices are actually pretty good for us in the big picture. Its starting to making people think before they drive all over in a Yukon XL (or if they do drive it they PAY and feel bad about it)
Now when most of the country is driving reasonably sized vehicles THEN and only then can we really bitch about $4-5 gas.
Compared to the rest of the world we got it easy even at $5. Wonder why europe is FULL of tiny cars? We don't need the massive vehicles and we don't need all the Horsepower.
Do what I do and have a nice shiny V8 (68 mustang) for the weekends and drive to/from work in a 40+MPG vehicle. If you're already doing that THEN come bitch about gas prices!
Drive a truck FOR work? well if you don't own the company you got a free vehicle so STFU own the company? yeah it sucks but pass the cost on to the consumer like everybody else does... Construction working but not a company truck? then they can bitch at you for driving a CAR to work now can they? If its not a company truck don't haul shit for the company /story
