I fill my Corolla up about once a week. It takes about 30 bucks to fill it up. I remember when I got my first car back in 1995- it took 13 dollars to fill it up. I do have a 20 mile or so commute- sometimes with traffic. I can only imagine the nightmare it must be for people with SUVs.

My next car will definitely be a hybrid.

Avg price for regular (not scientific avgerage, just what I've noticed) is $3.50+ now, I'm glad I filled up the other day, but I know I will need to again.

Gas is skyrocketing in NC too....its average is $3.55+ per gallon.....not to mention my current vehicle is a Dodge Ram 1500, its really getting to be a nightmare. I actually tried to fill my truck up yesterday and the gas pump automatically stopped me at $75.00

Scandia-Please read my above links about hybrids which I did edit and update a bit. I too was giving it some thought. Now I am giving it several thoughts.
