Just drove from moms in Jersey and even she says shes considering a mazda3 as a replacement for her Grand Cherokee. And let me tell you, when we got her the jeep about 4 years ago she said she'd rather walk than drive a compact car. Lookie here now... i guess shes tired of spending $100/week on gas. Gas prices is just bananas these days....Dunno about you guys but i use the car only if i have to(or the wifey says DRIVE). Overthe weekend tuned up my Trek and did some errands on it... Planning to do that more often. Maybe some of yous should too. Just dont forget the Kryptonite lock.

oil brokers and speculators drive up the price of oil, not OPEC. Exact same thing with all these real estate investors hyping up and driving up land costs on the west coast, we saw what happened with that.
