Whose Ready for $3.00 a Gallon Gas

I have mass transit options here along the NEC 5 days a week. The 30 mile ride to New Haven, CT is $1.20 by bus or $4 by train (Shoreline Line East). The math is easy: the transit option is comparable or cheaper for me alone to get around. <br /> <br />Honestly, I wouldn't care if it were $4 a gallon. But unlike many others, I do have other options. Its the price of everything else here in New England that is intolerable. Cut me a break on insurance or housing costs! Too bad... taxed to death helps pay for those transit options. <br /> <br />jchnhtfd: I agree...let it rise. There's still little market incentive to exploit real alternatives at current prices. Hybrids are nice, but they are still lossy combustion engines running on foreign fuel. Hydrogen is still dirty at the generation source until they figure out how to make it clean. <br /> <br />
