I wish I could say fuck cars, but then summertime would suck for me. I love driving and travelling and going to shows and festivals. On top of that, I really don't like public transportation, especially now that they are akin to 'No Constitutional Rights Zones'.
My next car will definitely be a hybrid, but when you think about it, gas prices have doubled in the past few years. Gas mileage on a hybrid has roughly doubled as well, so it kind of cancels itself out.

Yep, its $2.81 here in Southern NC. I remember being able to fill up for about $12, now for that much I'm lucky if I get a quarter of a tank.
Sad...

Yeah you're probably right Shroomism. I'm too stuck in an f'ing "I need a car" mentality. I'm going to meditate on how much I really need a car later. God knows I could really use the extra cash. $110/mo. for insurance sucks ass.

I'm assuming you could just public transportation, well that is if your town has any. Mine doesn't .

Some people just cant function in society though without a car. Most people. I'm just a freak. But if I was back home public transportation wouldn't be a problem. But I'm not back home.

Nah, theres no public transportation in my town, which is another issue altogether. But like I said, I don't really like public transportation. Buses are okay. I'm thinking of moving out to Colorado, though, possibly Boulder. So out there it wouldn't be a problem.
On another note, 600 posts WEEEEEEEEEEEE!

what the car companies need to do is put those hybrid engines in normal looking cars.
The only reason noone is buying them is because they are UGLY.

I agree. They fucked up the "futuristic" look. Badly.

It's about $2.50 here in TN. I guess we're pretty lucky. Anyone got any lower prices?
