AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

I CANT TAKE THE GAS PRICES ANYMORE!! I just put another $51.00 in my small little mazda 3!! for the second time this week! I spend over $100.00 a week in gas. Its really taking such a toll on me. WHen i put gas in my car I get so depressed. I really dont know how to do it anymore?? I cut corners as much as i can, but it just keep getting worse. Its even hard to food shop, cause that has gone up also. Sorry I just needed to vent ! How much does it cost you in gas a month???

My total this month = $450.00

I totally understand. I have a 12 Gallon Honda Civic and it's been costing me over $50 to fill my tank. It's gotten to the point of stupidity.

I'm sorry if I offend anyone who drives one, but I want to take out all the SUV drivers.

I hear ya! I can't believe it's over $4 already.

Once all this rain stops I'm biking it everywhere I can...and that will serve as my workout for the wedding...

FH and I are going CRAZY over this!! I drive a VW beetle and he has a Mustang GT... He's been taking my car to work on my days off because his car cost him $85.00 to fill and he works in CT!!! It's so crazy... We spend at least $450 in gas a week between the two of us! BTW: FH looks histerical driving my beetle!!

I have a 6 cyl Altima and it was costing $45 - $50 to fill it up for the past year or so...Yesterday morning I filled it up (and I wasn't even completely empty) and it was $64.00

Oh to answer the other part..I spend $600 a month in commuting fees between the gas and bridges.

Both me and FH BOTH have SUV's and we need them for work/family purposes, so 'SORRY' if you wanna take us out but not everybody's life is like yours....everyone has different situations. It's horrible with these gas prices! Luckily, FH and I can carpool to work most of the time so that helps a little but there's still ez-pass and just everything is going up!!!!!!!!

I love your new Avatar pic btw- I have been car pooling to work with FH also my registration has expired on my car and havent had the chance to renew it (it kind of works out for the better right now)

I think we are spending a similar amount as you

I also drive an SUV and would not have it any other way. After my accident, I feel safer in a bigger car, more in control. However...I do take the LIRR to work everyday from Ronkonkoma. I used to complain that my train ticket costs $267 a month....now I dont mind taking the train because I drive 5 minutes to the train station then sit on the train and am making out much better with gas. I only fill up once every 2-3 weeks depending on my weekend driving.

Re: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

I only fill up about 2-3 weeks. I only work 4 miles frommy house and I basically walk to my parents house which is only a few blocks and the the stores. I try to save as much as possible. It's crazy!!! And Me and FH both have VW's so we have to put super in. and it's about $4.23 right now for super.

Re: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

I wonder how high the gas prices will get before people really start to think before they drive somewhere? SUV sales are down but I also wonder when people will stop buying SUV's....just look at people in europe they wouldn't even think about it with their smart cars....The gas prices depress me immensley....Like someone said it's everything...food, gas clothes....when will it give????

If people can affford to put gas in the SUV, then what is the problem with owning one? I own one, I put gas in it, I feel SAFE in it. I dont drive often so I dont see a problem with owning one. We went from 2 SUV's to 1 SUV and 1 Car to be economical for raod trips. But I dont see why people have it out for those that own SUV's.

I drive a Nissan Murano and it cost like $75-80 to fill up my tank!

I work very close to home, so I don't go through as much gas as most, but still!!!

I don't have it out for people who own SUV's...I just think if you own one then you can't complain about gas...my dad owns one and i tell him this all the time.....I think in this country people think bigger is always better and in the end it's going to hurt the environment and economy.

I was not complaining about the price of gas, as it doesnt really affect me because I take the train into the city everyday and only drive 5 minutes a day. I just think that people need to get off their soap box and stop blaming the SUV owners, etc. How abotu w blame our stupid @ss president for the trouble we are in.....
