What have you done?

I know by now everyone has notice the Price of Gas has gone up and up and up, Duhhhhhhhhh. I don't think the price of gas is going to go down anytime this summer.

So with that being said with the price of gas going up have you cut back on your driving or get a vehicle that gets better gas mileage?


Yes, thats right I have created another Poll. LOL

Re: What have you done?

I really can't change my driving habits much. I don't run the A/C much, I just roll the windows down. I have to drive from school to school all day, and if I don't do that I don't have a job.

Re: What have you done?

I try not to think about it too much. After all, IS there anything we can actually do about the rising prices? I drive a 20-year old Maxima w/ 260K miles on it that gets great gas mileage & if I need to leave town or something...I use my wife's car & her gas!

Re: What have you done?

I moved to birmingham to be closer to work instead of living 45 min away. I did that because I just bought recently a Chev Tahoe....gas guzzler. I still love it though!

Re: What have you done?

Well, last October I got a car that gets better gas mileage (and is a whole lot cuter than my old car) but since I have a 56 mile rnd trip to work that I HAVE to make, I have cut back on a lot of my other driving around. I'm also trying SO hard to put my right foot on a diet. Anyone that knows me knows how heavy that foot is.

Re: What have you done?

Impossible to cut back on my driving, impossible for me to just go buy a new car because gas has gone up, don't have a motorcycle, no bicycle, so ... nothing's changed.

Re: What have you done?

My vehicle gets good gas mileage already and I haven't really changed any of my driving habits, don't think I would just ride around Demopolis just for the heck of it though
