Guest StuCotts Posted March 13, 2008 Posted March 13, 2008 Today at the Exxon station on the approach to the 96th St. entrance to the West Side Highway I saw regular gas advertised at 3.65 a gallon. In my parochial way, rather than sympathize with the much more gas-dependent rest of the country, I thought first with some self-satisfaction that this is one more addition to the long list of reasons for me to be happy that I got rid of my last car some years ago and removed myself from the multitude of masochists who insist against all reason on bearing the grueling burden of owning a car in Manhattan.

Members JKane Posted March 14, 2008 Members Posted March 14, 2008 I'm getting more pissed-off by the day that US automakers have taken billions in handouts to improve fuel efficiency, develop hybrids, etc and there are STILL NO PLUG-IN HYBRIDS! Quote
Members seaboy4hire Posted March 16, 2008 Members Posted March 16, 2008 Seattle isn't that far behind you. For regular across the street from me it's at 3.59 right now. Makes me glad I don't have a car either. Scootin or getting a Zip car if absolutely necessary is a lot lot lot cheaper if I need wheels. Other wise I either try to walk or take the metro when I don't have to be any where in a hurry. Quote
