Not really. When it was $3 I paid around $100-$120 a month for fuel...now it's probably around $180 or so. I also drive a bit more. I'm sure it will sink in as months go by, and I notice a less amount of money left over each month  |

Gas is cheaper in Honolulu than say Chicago where it is 4.60!
In Honolulu, where I am currently visiting, people do not have to travel far, but they do get stuck in traffic often.

No change here.
I work from home. My commute is a 10-second walk from my bedroom out to the livingroom or lanai. |

Gas here in upstate NY is ranging from $4.07 to $4.23 (regular).
I am SO glad I have a Prius!!! I hear all the '08s are sold and they're taking orders for '09s. You BET I'm taking mine to Hawaii in 6 weeks... oh yeah.
People are NOT laughing at me, and my 50 mpg, NOW !
Anybody know what the current wait time is for a Prius on Kauai? I might want to get another one for hubby or mom! |

I've found that you can afford a loooot of gas if you don't have a car payment.

Jeepin79....
I totally agree with u... I got rid of my V8 gas guzzler in November (along with a $500 a month car note) not having any idea that the price of gas would be SO much today. I am glad to say that I got me an older accord that is ALLLL mine.
