<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>Bah it's 2.00 for regular in New orleans, 2.20 for supreme. Look at the bright side, at least you'll be dead before your great grandchildren come bitching to you for gas money. :)</div>

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>Heh if you combine gas spending and insurance it costs me 600 a month to drive</div>

Gas is dirt cheap in the US compared to Europe.</div>

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>haha then that must mean you are one of those jerk holes with an SUV for your "off road" needs in the middle of the city</div>

[Tessian]

<div style='font: 11pt Dominion; text-align: left; '>and also-- this isn't philosophical. It's common sense about the waste of SUV's-- and Sine, they're not the reason for gas hikes, that'd be OPEC</div>

[SineSwiper]

<div style='font: 10pt "EngraversGothic BT", "Copperplate Gothic Light", "Century Gothic"; text-align: left; '>Yes, OPEC does limit the amount of barrels we get a day, but they understand their oil is limited. When we start demanding more, they start charging more or they don't bother shipping extra barrels at all. That. plus the lack of oil refineries to keep up with the growing demand, is hiking prices.</div>

[Flip]

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>nice, i would get one just to be able to drive in the HOV lane, although i think that will be lifted from Northern VA in a few years. Another good economy car are VW Jetta TDI's, they get 50 MPG on diesel.</div>

[Flip]

<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>High Occupancy Vehicles. For morning commutes there is a lane that you can only ride in if you have 2+ people in the car (motorcycles and hybrids can use the lane, too). It tries to encourage car pools since the HOV lane can get you to work in half the time.</div>

[Ganath]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Can't we just continue to call it a "Car Pool Lane", or does everything have to have an acronym nowadays?</div>

[Kupek]

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>We have signs that say "HOV Lane" all over the place, sorta makes sense to use that term.</div>
