    Default Have Gas Prices changes your driving?

    I know that I drive less, and if I'm just running to the store, I drive my wife's Chevy Cavalier instead of anything else. Plus, we drive a lot less these days too.

    How has the cost of gas affected your driving habits?

    when ever possible i drive my fiero for most things unless the burb is needed, but i'm not going to give up on the burb. winter is not far off up here and then it will be our daily driver. the problem is the gas companies are useing these disasters to increase there profits, anyone been watching how the profit margins for them have just keep riseing even with all this trouble with the storms in new orleans and texas. that doesnt sound to me like there is a gas problem, just a profit increase.

    Our driving changed. I normally drive a '99 burb and my husband a '86 chevy 3/4 ton. My burb gets ~20 mi/gal and his truck gets ~2mi/gal. So we started burbpooling. He takes me to work then uses my burb to run around for his business

    We pretty much use the Avalanche for most things now. I only use the 'burban for going to and from work.

    I'm still driving the little car to work. Saves a lot of $$ each month in gas costs.
