We own an oil-producing middle eastern country, and can't even take advantage of that? If we're going to have an unjustified invasion and abuse our military strength, they should at least give us decent gas prices.

This could be more true than we think. These oil companies have seen that the people WILL pay it. Moan and groan we might, but they laugh all the way to the bank.  |

That's why I got a hybrid.
I got sick of the gas BS and got a Prius. Living on a fixed income, the hybrid helps me take trip that I would normally not be able to . So screw the gas cos. and get a hybrid. FishHawk

Yeah, well, maybe if you are in need of a new vehicle, but, it doesn't make much sense to trade in a paid for vehicle only lay out $20K + for a hybrid to save a few bucks at the pump, but last summer people went into a panic and did just that....  |

I know several people with the Prius, they all love those cars. And the freedom to be able drive with a little less concern about how much fuel they're gobbling down.
When you think of how many miles many of us cover in a season (as long as it's not on a beach), a fuel sipper like that makes a lot of sense, not counting the fact surf rods don't fit inside very easily. But that's what roof racks are for. |
