We're right at the $3 mark--$2.999/gal right now.
here it's hard to speed, the interstate normally moves at about 25 a good part of the day. That's wasting a lot of gas too. Don't get me started on the highay department here.
Last evening we were headed down I405 and only the car pool lane was moving, some guy in it on a motorcyle was going about 60 and kept doing wheelies!
