Really? Does big island of Hawaii offers bus?
 
Gas is around 3.30 in my city right now but we just came back from a three day trip to the desert on our trike and gas was 3.89 in these isolated places....

What kind of mileage do you get with the trike?
 
I am supposed to be getting 36 MPG with this trike but I am not getting that right now....gotta take it in to the shop and ask them to install special spark plugs, tune/re-jet/whatever the carb or R & R it, anything to get an improvement.....
 
yes we have services here in the big island runs morning and late afternoon. so i only have 3 chances in the morning to catch the bus and 1 chance in the afternoon if i miss it tuff on me i ll have to spend the night which i don't want to.
 
Well, it is a good thing that I don't own a car anymore. I am usin' my bike. Save $$ big time without an headache to spend too much $$ on gas. I drink water bottle everyday and THAT is my energy I could spend on durin' ridin' on my bike - cheeeaper than gas. :)
 
I drove by the gas station earlier this evening and noticed that the price is now $3 per gallon!

Just last week, it was $2.80 per gallon.

The week before that, it was $2.60 per gallon!

If this keeps up, we could be looking at $4.00 per gallon by June! Jeez!

In our state, the bicyle is banned on freeway then no choice...

I need car to drive on freeway to my job because of 15 miles then bicycle is no benefit for most people.

Naw, you forget the law of supply and demand. Something gets expensive enough, people do what they can to not use it as much. I can see more compacts and subcompacts out there and less of the SUV vehicles.

I'd say we probably see $3 - $3.10...maybe even $3.25 max generally over the summer. Someplaces will be more of course and so I speak of average prices.
 
Well, I ain't gonna give up on my gas guzzling SUV :-D but fortunately I got motorcycle and would use them most of the summer.

That's bad!

When I first came to Rochester, it only cost me under $20 to fill up the car with a $20 gas tank.

I was disappointed when the cost finally went over $20. Whenver I had to get gas in my friend's car, I simply had to have a $20 bill in my pocket. Now, I need more than that. :(
 
Try my Jeep, Eh eh! Yours not even as bad as mine! Mine already hit over 50 dollars! But good for only 1 week! I don't drive that much, except going hard off road, gobbling even more gas. It was hell more fun than amusument park!

to correct you.. i believe its 41 cents starting in may 14 or 15? not 42 cents.. and.. you can buy the "forever stamp" for 41 cents each.. and when u buy the "forever stamp" and the stamp price increase.. its same 41 cents :D no need to add 2 cents stamps if you own forever stamps in the future.

check on USPS - The United States Postal Service (U.S. Postal Service)
