Yes, gasoline prices will continue to rise, $3 a galllon is not out of the question in 2 years, $4 a gallon is not out of the picture in 4 years, $5 a gallon is very probable in 6 years..... <br /> <br />No matter how high it goes up, we the consumers of gasoline, have not dropped our consumption, as demand keeps going up..... And with China continuing to consume more oil, we are doomed..... <br /> <br />Why anyone wants to buy a SUV or a large pickup, anything larger than a 4 cyclinder engine, is beyond me! Why the average house being built in America today is over 2,000 square feet, mini mansions are what they are building, is beyond me..... You'd think with doubling our energy costs in 2 years people would be buying smaller homes of 1,000 square feet instead..... <br /> <br />Half our energy use is to heat and air condition a home...... <br />[/quote]why would anyone want a 4 cylinder pickup truck or SUV... no power..or little power for hulling... cant pull a boat for crap behind a 4 cylinder.... and as far as the size of houses....if i want a big house...im getting a big house.... ever hear of high efficancy heating....geothermal heating... lots of aways to cut heating and cooling bills if you set your house up right...size dont mean crap..its how well you have it insulated and how effient your AC and furnes are.... you can live in your 1000 sq feet house..but i myself like lost of open space and big rooms...makes me feel more comfortable like the walls arnt closing in on me..... <br />csx engineer <br />[/quote]That's why I got rid of my V8 for a V6 Instead! <br />BNSFrailfan.
