Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
Cut back on stupid things you waste money on. Cook food at home more, cut back the super cable package. When we quit spending money on Sh*t the price will come down. It is all tied together. One way to get your Hummer is buy it and with the fuel savings buy a small comuter car for work. I barely make six figures but I love my truck so I will cut back on other things to afford it.
This sounds like the car for you http://www.fordpinto.com/
Oh by the way it get about the same gas milage as an H3

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
Gas here in Calgary is right now around $1.20/litre (Canadian), that equates to approx $4.43/US Gallon (1 gallons (US) is equal to 3.79 liters). Since as of today we are trading Canadian dollars at $1.09US that means it would cost approx $4.87/US Gallon here in Canada. So don't feel so bad! You could always come up here and buy your gas!

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
Here's a newsflash: Gas prices fluctuate. Remember when all the Honda dealers had wait lists for a Prius? A month ago they were offering incentives because gas prices had dropped so low. My gas was up to $3.09 on Saturday. The same station today was at $2.91. It will come down again after the Memorial Day rush, and drop even further after the summer travel season halts. If you're really that concerned, then have a second vehicle that you use for your longer trips that gets better gas mileage. You can also plan your errands better so you're on the road less. It does hurt to pay $70 to fill up, but I think the trade off is well worth it.

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
Here in Kansas City it's $3.40 a gallon. I'm sick of hearing the stories about "summer driving season", "refinery fires" and one of my favorites, "heating oil demand" causing huge swings in prices.
Is the petrochemical industry the only f*cking industry on the planet that doesn't plan for the next season? Even worse is their feining difficulty for whatever made up crisis they conjure up while banking record profits.
I make enough to buy the gas, but I don't have to like the price. Economics is one thing but continual market manipulation is crap.

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
I just installed the new S.P.F.S.K.F.E.B.H.O or Solar Powered Fuel Saving Kit For Elitest Bastard Hummer Owners. It is an easy install that mounts to the roof rails.
On the way to work today I was averaging 10.5 M.P.G.
It's GREAT!!!!

I just wear a Durka veil during fill ups whenever gas is high.

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
I have beaten the high price of gas by pushing the Hummer back and forth on weekdays and riding in it only on weekends. Needless to say I'm getting in great shape.
Hey why is the gas so expensive in Canasia? Isn't that where it all comes from?

Re: So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18
As has been said, if you're going to sweat the price of gas, you won't enjoy the Hummer. I factored that in when I bought it. The joy I get from driving it more than makes up for the mileage difference I would have gotten with the '07 Tahoe I also considered.
Although the price per gallon may go up even more, I don't think it will just keep going up and up. I believe OPEC is well aware that if the price per barrel exceeds a certain point, then it truly will be worth while for major industry to develop alternative fuel sources and put a real hurt on them. We still haven't got to that point.
As to the constant references to Bush getting rich on oil profits, I don't see it. He's the most powerful man in the world already (why else do the rich want to get richer?), doesn't pay for a thing, has his own 747, and he'll retire a rich man (as did Clinton). So I just don't see the motive. There's nothing stopping you from buying 10,000 shares of exxon or BP and reaping the benfits of an oil dependent country, is there?
