Once its time for the GTP to make its exit it will be replaced with a fuel efficient vehicle of some sort, not sure what at the moment but I need to do something as $80-100 fill ups of premium would definitely not be fun.

Right now it really doesnt bother me at all. And while I do not believe we will ever allow it to hit 9.00 by next year, if it does Ill leap that hurdle then.

Im sure if the prices really get out of hand, they will impliment something like they did during the '73 & '79 energy crisis.

What sux for me is that even though I work for NJ Transit and can ride busses/trains for free, there isn't a decent schedule layout for me to get to/from work. I'll be dayumed if I'm gonna layover in ******** Trenton for hours...So, I'll just keep working at max MPG in the Cavalier. If worse comes to worse I'll gut it out, as I rarely use the back seat anyways. I'm also considering a Fiero/Ecotec swap for a future project. And the AMX will be in my life even if gas hits 100 bux a gallon. If I can't drive it I'll park it in my living room.

exactly. it will no longer be "what are you going to do about transportation," thats only one part of how it affects us. How are we going to afford food? How will prices of merchandise be affected? How high will the cost of shipping go? Everything that we know will be expensive, and I know I will be out of a job..
