And yet you want more interstates to get built mattee01. How would that cause gas prices to go lower along with expanding public transportation options?
One of the few things that us drivers actually have control over the price of gas is driving less. Less demand = lower prices.

The purpose is more opening economic development than anything else. Transit will come with time.

This is a place that saw no reason to include sidewalks when it built roads; transit isn't coming here in a manner that will help people get to/from work ever.
Sadly, you have to put your life at more risk everyday by driving a motorcycle to save money.

This thread is getting Goofy...
Save some gas...Plan trips accordingly, check pressure in tires, drive the speed limit or just below, keep vehicle tuned, and ride your bike ever chance you get.

April Fool's Day has passed by. Four dollar/gallon gas is wishful thinking.
If you want to invest in your car:
1.) Use better oil. Synthetic oils perform better for your engine, preventing leaks, deposits, sludge and friction.
2.) Get your car serviced regularly. Transmission flushes, coolant flushes, power steering flush, fuel system cleanings, fuel filters, tire rotations, and tune ups helps reduce abraision in several core components of your car's operation and increases performance and speed.
3.) Replace your cabin air filter, engine air filter, and wiper blades when they are dirty or tearing.

Another reason why the era of cars really needs to start taking a 'back seat'. This is quite costly to keep up with all these 'investments'. Anything you might save at the pump is negated by the price you put into keeping the vehicle up.
Look for gas prices to drop significantly before the election. Just a hunch.....
