Almost everybody else here ( in Houston ) was $ 2.99, but pumps in the upscale neighborhoods were up to $ 3.05. I rode my scooter all week to try to save some money - never once drove my car. There were a lot more 2 wheelers on the highway this week, especially late at night. And I am no longer the only Houstonian on the crazy freeways riding a scooter. My scooter has 3,000 miles on it now. I am getting 50 mpg. But there really is no overall savings in money, as the maintenance cost are 2 or 3 times what your gas savings are. I saw a vehicle yesterday on the roads of Houston, that I have only seen on TV in old movies. I am not sure what it was. It was some kind of 3 wheeled taxi like you would see in Bangledesh. He was only going about 25 mph. I think that shows how much the gas prices are affecting us. Late at night, it seems like there are fewer cars on the road. I wonder if people are going to stop doing things like going out to the movies because of the gas prices. Are you cutting back on your driving? If gas hits $ 3.50 a gallon in July, I will have to alter my plans to go to the NSS Convention. I do not believe it will hit $ 4 unless there is a unexpected disaster somewhere that affects the oil industry.
