HELP! Is there anything we can do about these gas prices? Anything?

Question

Wasn't GM supposed to come out with an all electric EV-1 car? What happened to that? What happened to Hydro powered cars? I remember gasoline always costing less than diesel. Now, diesel fuel is less. Please help. I'm paying $400/month is gasoline and I have to. There's no trains or buses and I have to get to work. I stopped going out on the weekends because of gas prices.

Answer 1

Well if you're willing to take a chance on an unconventional car, you can do what I did - buy an electric car. Would you believe you can buy a freeway-capable electric conversion - a car converted to electricity - for as little as $5000? Try out the link:

I drive my electric car around for only about a penny per mile in electricity. It's true that with a cheap electric car, you'll have old battery technology. This means recycling the batteries about every 5 years. But the battery pack in my car only costs $850 - and I save more than that by not having to worry about oil changes, filters, fluids, or engine maintenance (electric motors have only one moving part - they really don't need maintenance.)

If you can afford it, you might want to look at the latest cutting edge electric car (about $60,000):

The ZAP-X puts out 644 horsepower, 155mph top speed, 350 miles per charge, charges in just 10 minutes, and the battery pack should last nearly 20 years. The car can be pre-ordered right now!

Answer 3

Yes I work for a company that has a fuel re-formulator it helps you save an average of 7-19% on your gas and it lowers your emissions. the company is even sponsoring a car this weekend in the indie 500 car races its bin around for 10 years and has government contracts and is a big company if you want more info go to www.4planetearth.com. it works great I have saved 4 mpg in my 06 mustang. my husband saves about 9 MPH on his Chevy Tahoe. I'm not kidding

Answer 4

Always buy your gas from the station with the lowest price. When the stations jack prices it takes competition a while to get prices down. Consumers who don't shop play into the stations hands.

Driving at a lower speed and coasting to stops will increase your milage.

A good tune-up helps.

I see other good ideas posted here.
