    Is it in deep enough yet?!

    I just checked my 'Gas Buddy' app and the cheapest gas around is at the am-pm down the block @ $3.97 a gallon.


    It's gonna be too expensive to get to work here shortly...

    Almost a gallon over here. It's been well over 1GBP (~) a litre for a few years over here... Although, our 'regular' is 95RON, with super being 97, and in some places 99...

    No matter what price, you will still buy it. They have us by the balls. Deal with it.

    This.

    There isn't really much we can do about it. We all have to go to work and have other places to be. I pretty much look at it that way. I mean, yes it sucks having to pay that much and I do complain, but there isn't much I can do about it.

    And we all drive Miata's that get good gas mileage so we still have no room to talk!

    My miata normally gets 27-30mpg.

    That's good enough for me. If you complain about the price of 93 don't turbo your car. It only costs like $3 more per fill up.

    You must not be braining. You are forgetting the fact you'll be filling up more frequently with a turboed miata.

    In 2008, the word hypermiling was selected as the best new word of the year by New Oxford American Dictionary.
