gas prices

[pkay]

i have a neighbor in my neighborhood with 2 hummers
there is no need for that

i don't undesrtand that.

I own an FX35 so I can't bitch about suvs (tho it does get about 20mpg) but the hummers aren't even that nice... but we also have a mazda 3 as our daily city driver which is more than reasonable.

I understand driving is more important in the US and I understand that the culture is different here.... but having 2 gas guzzlers is retarded. Financially it makes no sense.

When we pay off the 3 we'll be turning it in for either an electric or a hybrid.

Like I said, just saw a volt the other day, so that really may be a possibility. They're actually starting to roll out.

I test drove one. Interior was so shit and it drove very clunky for a $40k car.

The Infiniti M looks sick as fuck but fuck a $52k car.

To be honest the best bang for your buck seems to be a diesel jetta. 50 miles to the gallon highway, reasonably priced, and built like a normal sedan.

Same thing they used to do. They'd have a fuel efficient car, and it was just a piece of shit. I don't think it is about economics. I think they are either trying to discourage the use of fuel efficient cars while still being able to maintain the facade that they provide efficient cars or they believe that people that want fuel efficient cars don't give a fuck about the aesthetic experience of their car.

I drove a prius the other day, and it was pretty nice. It really felt like you were driving a corolla, but still, it wasn't a shit box by any means.
