pm26 Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 I do not drive my truck much so it does not really bother me, but I am sure some are beginning to drive less as a result. Especially when they have only their trucks as their main transportation.
mhenshaw Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 Nope Im even happy with my 16.5 mpg (city) in my 4x4

Especially when they have only their trucks as their main transportation. People in the US pay less than we Canadians do. Even though we produce the stuff! I have thought more and more recently about trading in for a small car or something. Its not that I can't afford it, its that it just doesn't make sense driving at least 110km a day to work. At $1.20 a litre average For the people using stonage imperial system that would be: about $4.50 a gallon and about 68 miles round trip.
jro909 Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 if gas prices began crippling me finacially i would invest in a 400 dollar honda civic and beat the shit out of it....oh and gas is 2.87 a gallon here

Georgebaumann Posted December 22, 2010 Posted December 22, 2010 my trucks gettin about 12 now with the 35s. i needa regear my truck bad
JRLZ71 Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 Rising gas prices are good in my area. That means we get more money from our wells each month. Louisiana oil and gas wells are bankin'!
Stevens03 Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 I wouldn't even consider parking the truck We drive it ALOT more than we drive the car. It's just more comfortable to drive and ride in. We'll drive the car less first...
[email protected] Posted December 23, 2010 Posted December 23, 2010 Yeah, I run premium and as far as not driving it...I can't afford to. I gotta work.

That would be the extra tax in the price. 92.9 per litre in SE Alberta and about 20 cents higher in SK. and that is where my fuel comes out of.
Bowtie2Sierra Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Nope. I'll drive it as much as normal. Gas will have to get a hell of a lot higher ($6-$8) for me to consider otherwise.

RVJ Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 Gas prices suck, but I haven't give a thought to not driving my truck.
cghbuilder86 Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 2.95 here, I pretty much drive like always. My truck is my main squeeze and I've got to get around. But I do hate it, back my ears and fill up when I have to.
