Where I live, mid grade is about 4.60 a gallon. the good stuff is 5.45 a gallon. The Camaro only drinks the good stuff. but yes! even I have cut back a bit on the drives. I was doing about 200 miles a day... but now I am down to probably less than 75 miles a day. I love to cruise. Now, thinking about working families... what is the limit. IF you have two cars (a couple where both work) and each drives enough where they have to gas up every week or even every two weeks... thats a shinny penny. Whats the limit? these people with SUV's or trucks - wow! It's like paying rent - not to even talk about food prices today. perhaps this will 'drive' us to electris cars. I can't see myself buying electric - not anytime soon.

Gas prices would have to increase by 4X before I would really notice/care (adjusted for inflation).“It is no use trying to 'see through' first principles. If you see through everything, then everything is transparent. But a wholly transparent world is an invisible world. To 'see through' all things is the same as not to see.”

I don't drive much and we have hybrids. I probably spend less than $20 a month right now. I use to sometimes get 60 miles per gallon, now days I am getting closer to 50 (I don't travel as far and I rarely sit in traffic).

I drive a very fuel efficient ****box Ford rollerskate and it's running me $60 for just under 12 gallons to fill it. My wife bought a used lemony Mazda CX-7...9? I don't know, I don't drive it. It's supposed to take supreme for some ridiculous reason, and gets totally ****ty mileage. It's pushing $100 a tank now. Emphasis on the word "tank". I also have a Harley which is probably still more efficient than her vehicle. It's all good though because I finally checked a huge job bucket list box and start a new gig within walking distance of my suburban abode. That's going to be great. I will need suggestions for 30 minute or less podcasts however.Life and death is a grave matter;

I want a garage before I buy electric. I sorta would prefer to keep our current cars until I can give it to my oldest (age 8 right now, so 8 years?). I don't know if there is some lifetime to hybrids though, due to the battery, so I might be looking to replace at some point.

I commute by bicycle (when i don't WFH), so gas prices aren't really that affecting our lifestyle.
I pretty much only use the car to take to/pick my daughter from kindergarten when the weather is really really ****ty (like heavily snowing or major thunderstorm), and the occasional trip (for example to the airport). Last time I filled it up was in January!
Our next car will very probably be electric, but for sure that will be 2-3 years in the future at least.Indifference is BlissComment

In Russia it's 2.8$ per gallon for octane number-92 and 3.09$ per gallon for octane number-95.
Considering that dollar now at May 20 worth 58.9 roubles and the day before the war at February 23 it was 80.4 roubles.

If dollar worth today as it was before the war that would have been 2.08 per gallon and 2.17 per gallon accordingly.Comment

Your old Johnny blabbermouth mind farting about 200 roubles per dollar can pretty much serve himself, as well as his master Baraka, who made alike BS claims about Russian economy torn to ramble during his own term.Comment

Just what the world needs right now....a Turkish-Greek conflict. Erdogan needs to understand what side his bread is buttered on while he still has his bread."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003Comment
