I don't get why people are complaining about the price of gas. I can understand why people who are poor can't afford it, but those same people aren't doing anything to conserve. Why don't you start driving 55 on the freeway instead of 75? 20 mph will save about 30% on gas. I haven't done any experiments, but the last week I have been meticulously driving 10 mph under the speed limit, and it has save me at least 2-3 gallons per fill up.
