Don't rush into anything! If you have the summer apply to more and check them out! You wouldn't buy a car without looking around ..would you!?

Not really. The higher the price of gas, the more reasonable alternatives become for the average guy. And there are ways...\n\nIt costs all of about $6000 to convert a gas guzzler into a nice clean electric car that gets about 50 miles to a charge. Add one of the many free energy devices that are being explored AND DOCUMENTED ONLINE, and you get electric cars that cost NOTHING to drive, other than insurance, registration, and maintenance. \n\nThen we can smile as we drive by those expensive dinosaur juice dispensaries!

I would look into your department of transportation.  A lot of times they'll have car auctions where you can find all sorts of cars and get them for a fraction of the price.  I would call them and ask when they will be holding another auction.  Of course, the larger city the more frequent the auctions.

I JUST PAID OFF MY HONDA INSIGHT.  IT HAS A 10 GALLON GAS TANK.  BUT IF BUSH'S GAS PRICES GOTO $6 A GALLON IT'S STILL GOING TO HURT TO PAY $60 EVERY TIME I TURN AROUND.

The average price in the U.S is $3.50 per gallon.  About the same as what you are paying in India.

Hubbert's peak has a good chance of being real. Check out the following link for more information:\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubbert%27s_peak\n\nYou could cope better in a number of ways. \n\nYou could buy shares of oil exploration/drilling/refining companies that would likely enjoy higher profits as gas prices increase.\n\nYou could live close to town and to work so that you could rely on automobile usage less. The less you drive, the less the price of gasoline will directly affect you. Hybrids are promising technology, but the cost differential between regular and hybrid cars is large enough to make them uneconomical for many people. This will change over time though.\n\nPersonally, I drive very little, so the price of gasoline is a miniscule portion of my income. It would not affect me too much.\n\nGasoline, after correcting for the loss of value of the dollar is still significanly cheaper than it has been at many points in time, including the 1970's. People survived then, they will survive with gasoline that costs three times what it does now.\n\nDriving for pleasure may decrease, so if your income is dependent on tourist traffic, I would consider the possiblity of checking out another field if you are concerned.

See your other question (and my answer therein) --- if you drive less than 1796 miles, go with plan A.\n\nThe 44.5 cents per mile deal only works if you drive 1796 miles or greater.\n\n~ ♥ ~

My gas bill for the house went from $50.00 to $200.00 within 1month!!! I was so upset, but it is because the weather here dose not know what its gonna do from 1 day to the next. I have 2 kids plus my nephew and husband here...so thats a lot. The gas for our cars cost around $2.30 per gallon. Your gas company should have a payment plan for those who cant pay their bills all at once. An income based plan. Check it out.

Gas is gunna keep going up and no its not over priced its what we get for relying on it soo much we might see it go down a bit but its gunna keep going up as the months go on we are coming to a point were its becoming harder and harder to find oil and especially when we do find it its in contries that dont wanna give it up or charge tons per barrel soo i suggest you looking into a hybrid! or a smart car by Mercedez and Swatch.. the less we rely on oil the cleaner the earth the worlds biggest glaciers right now are wabling on giant rocks and scientist belive that at anytime the glaciers could fall into the ocean causing water levels to rise up atleast a 2-3 metres causing huge problems and they say due to this the whole world would have different climates then they do now such as ONT Canada would be a desert I hope this helped good luck!  \n\nBlake C.

This is an easy one!\n\nSpending $1295 a month on transportation is pretty much acceptable, and you really are getting a darned good deal. \n\nHowever, kicking that number up to $1357 puts a whole new spin on things, and the deal is suddenly sour. \n\nSo, yes, I'd expect an increase of $62 in your monthly transportation budget to just plain shut you down. I'd imagine you'll no longer go anywhere, will probably lose your job and all of your friends, and will be reduced to watching reruns of Gilligan's Island and spraying aerosol whipped cream into your mouth until is comes out your nostrils.\n\nI also think you'll be bitter and disappointed. You'll write a novel based on your experiences, it will be deemed worthy of the Pulitzer prize, and you'll suddenly have the expectation of an income in the millions of dollars. That dream, too, will be dashed because the mail truck won't bring your check because it's too expensive to drive. \n\nThose oil mongers! Darn them. Darn them all!

i have a friend that could really use some help financially.  I would love for her to have a car for her and her daughter.  And like an endless gas card.  so she never has to worry about walking in the rain or the heat with her little baby.

I would have to say that we need a break from the rain!!!  I live in the country (which I love) but have a dirt driveway.  I am really sick of walking through sticky mud everyday to get the mail!  I can't believe that it has been so cold and it's May.  I wonder what kind of summer we will have.  Keep your chin up and have a fun weekend!

I personally haven't driven the Alcan, but my brother and other friends have.  They said if you have an NRA or any other pro gun decal, they tend to tear your vehicle apart at the checkpoint.  As a military member, you may want to expect it.  DO NOT CARRY FIREARMS!  The drive is beautiful, but take it easy around the corners.  I had a friend come around a bend and smack dab into a moose.  The moose ran off.  It caved in the roof of his car, and cost him alot of time and money to have it repaired, and it wasn't fixed very good.  It's crazy, but the drive is shorter from Montana than from Seattle.  Preplan your trip, check in with someone stateside on a regular basis.  Expect to pay a helluva lot more for gas.  Alaska is beautiful, though.  Hot up there is mid 80's.  The cold isn't that bad because it's a dry cold.  I ran around in jeans and a windbreaker in 20 degree weather.  I hope you have a 4 wheel drive.  Anything else, email me.
