"Makes me glad I don't drive an SUV, that's for sure"

Thats what eveyone keeps saying to me. But even with these sharp increses they are only a big problem if you have a long commute. Right now I use about 15 gal a week, two weeks ago that was about $38, Right now thats about $45. So that means I get one less Crappymeal for lunch every week, probably good for me. On the upside I know that I won't drive as much as prices go up, probably good for the environment.....

I need to get my GT going, it would be nice to get back to the 25-30 MPG range. Though somehow last week after replacing the O2 sensor, and cleaning the air filter (where I found the pipe leading up to it had been leaking) the MPG of my Denali jumped from 13 to 18, and I do about 90% stop and go. AND I found a gas station tucked away in an industrial park that has consistantly been 45 cents cheeper a gallon than the next cheepest in Chicago.
