well thats the best idea so far..... carpool or drive less is the only way to save your self some money.
I only fill up once a month anyway, I'll just be sure it's not on or around the 15th this month.

On may 15th don't go to the pump to fill your car. There is a nation wide protest focused on the gas and oil companies. Please help the cause. The planners are thinking that if the protest is carried out it could drop the price of a gallon of gas up to $1.50 in just a day. We all could use that money.
Maybe towards a new tank
Please help the cause, inform everyone you know.
Thank you,
Chris
Care to explain how this will lower gas prices. Oil companies do not control the price they pay for oil. They also do not control the taxes that are placed on the gas by the government. Boycotting gas for one day will have little to no effect on gas prices.LOL!!! Me too wurm!

they do control a lot its just not buying it one day isnt going to do anything.
there are only a few really good hybrids. most coast so much extra that it takes years to make up the money you save on gas. buying a cheaper better mgp is a smart idea also.
