Gas Prices

[judy]

It is about $4.03/gallon right now. Our 3 gas stations overcharge to begin with because we are in a rural area, and have to go there.

I kmow several people who have the Prius, and they love the gas mileage. I doubt if I could use it up here. I need AWD, and a heavier car. I pay near $60 to fill up. If I go anywhere, I have to figure at least $30 into the trip for gas!

I usually fill up every other week, so I am lucky there. The whole situation is ridiculous!!!

I pay over $60 to fill up. However I don't drive much......I stay home through most of the week. I'm like you, Judy, we need 4-wheel drive to get up our hill when it's bad in the wintertime.......that or walk up the hill.......Not happening!!! Dae Lynn's car is much better gas mileage and we can us that if we want to.

Our gas has dropped to $3.75. Not sure why, but then again, never know why it goes up so much. I don't drive my van much either, maybe once or twice a week. I try to combine all I need to do in one trip to town.

I know that we've cut back on driving. We used to drive out of town a lot on Sunday's to eat but we hardly ever do that anymore. We also tend to go shopping together more now than we used to and travel together more. Of course with the farming there's just no way to cut back on what you need. Everything costs so much when it comes to farming!!
