Gas Prices

[hkellick]

So.. a question (and another public entry!)

They're predicting gas prices to go up to $5 again for a while.

How much do you have to pay to fill up your vehicle before the price of gas outweighs the convenience of having your own vehicle? How much until you switch to biking/walking/mass transport?

If gas does go up to $5 or more per gallon, what do you intend to do?

It sucks. We have cut way back on little trips...if we run out of milk, we run out of milk. I've been more aware of this when I do shopping...we get 4 gallons of milk at a time, and that extra loaf of bread. We've gone to more pasta meals, cheap meals, trying to cut some spending there. Unfortunately, there's only one RTS route out of Victor, and it's not at all workable for Matt to go to work. Moving closer would kill us in rent, 'cause Penfield is freakin expensive. Thankfully, I just got a job, but if gas goes up that much, that's all my job will cover.
