and by next year $12 a gallon if trend continues.

it makes me sad just thinking about that.

got to lvoe the greedy oil companies who care more about making a penny then helping their country. looks like this will kill the economy and country. feel bad for you people west of mississippi where everything is spread out more.

 

I really think that would discourage many many people from driving

 

If it gets that way, fuckit man. Fuckit.

 

i love my bike
i get about 45 mpg doing twisties. it'll probably be better if i take it easy on the throttle

 

bucket civics ftw!
I forsee the prices of these buckets going up due to mpg and cheap to maintain.

 

I'm gonna buy a 3-banger geo metro for $500 and weld in a roll cage h:


But in all seriousness, if gas gets that ridiculously expensive I think in the long run it'll be a good thing. It'll finally be enough motivation for the govt to start seriously endorsing alternative energy research. As for me, I'd just ride my bicycle to work h:

 

i cant ride my bicycle 25 miles

 

people around here commute that far on bikes... yeah, Boulder is a weird town

 

Oil companies know that they have America by the balls. There's nothing we can do. They've even somehow triggered the public to expect a raise in prices when just about anything in the world happens. (flood, tornado, missile attack, etc)

 

1. get a better job
2. take public transportation
3. get a car with better mileage
4. carpool
5. bike

im sure there are more options
