Who else is hurting from these gas prices?

Question

I spent 80 dollars to fill up my truck the other day, which is rediculous. Is there anything that we the people can do to get some releif at the pumps.

Answer 1

My truck won't run. Transportation is a problem. I drive very little even if the truck is working. If they changed the infrastructure to drastically reduce the need for all the driving, things would be better. It could be done. It will be done when gas gets high enough. It has to reach the "crisis" level before anything will be done. People will pay $5 to $10 a gallon before they really get serious. Words, words words - don't give me words, show me!

Answer 2

i have a newer dodge diesel, diesel is suppose to be by-product of gas. it should be cheaper then right? i dont know anyone that can afford 4.19 per gallon. i cant even drive over to see my step-daughter one state over with out spending 350 easy in gas for over and back! I heard though that at the pump you should not put the leaver to pump it on fast you should set it at the lowest setting because of the air flow back into it on fast messes with how much gas youre actually pumping I dont know if its true or not though. Worth giving it a try anyways
