[QUOTE="MaxKaladin, post: 2530820, member: 1196"] I noticed $2.46 when driving in yesterday morning. Gas prices are just insane. Yeah, I know they're worse other places but still... I remember thinking gas over about $1.60 was expensive a year or two ago... I do drive a SUV, but it's the most comfortable thing I can find. I'm a big guy. Most vehicles don't have enough leg room for me and most cars are so low to the ground that getting in and out is a big pain for me -- plus I see better, don't have near as much trouble from speed bumps and have lots more room to put stuff in my SUV. I had a minivan for a while and it got better gas mileage, but it was just too uncomfortable and the ride was terrible. Other than that, I've driven pickups and SUVs all my life (I grew up in a ranching community and this is Texas, so this isn't unusual) and I just don't want to change. In a few years when I can get a large hybrid SUV and the prices have come down a bit, I'll probably get one of those. [/QUOTE]
