    true but the problem is a lot of folks made the mistake of thinking it was going go down and stay down... big SUV and truck sales was way up...now all those folks will be stuck with gas hogs, high gas prices and a big vehicle payment..

    Well I hope those people will be ok but it is common sense that they would go back up again...

    I always found it strange when people spend 30K+ to get an extra 3-5 mpg over their current vehicle... And then they sell that vehicle in a few years anyways.

    Absolutely... we live on a planet with a fixed volume of resources (gas in this case) and we are consuming them faster than ever with an ever expanding population demanding more and more......

    I enjoyed filling my truck up on the cheap, but it was only a matter of time. Lowest I saw was $1.82.
