I don't know how we do it either! Scott and I were just talking about it last week, that as long as there's demand they can charge us whatever they want. It always goes up over long weekends because people travel and need gas. It usually goes up in the summer. I didn't fill my car over Christmas because I thought it would go back down, but it kept going up
It costs about $55-$60 per fill and we fill up once a week.
Whenever my car dies, we will be getting an SUV with 4x4 so it's a little safer to drive during and after snowstorms, and so we can fit more stuff in and not have to borrow trucks or SUV's when we buy something big we need to bring home. But of course, SUV's eat gas like crazy
I'm looking at maybe getting a hybrid, like the Ford Escape. I tried asking about them on YT but just got "ANY SUV IS BAD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, PLEASE RETHINK"
