I also like to see how low can I go. I sort of enjoyed driving a rental Prius, watching all the displays and trying to drive for free. I also like saving anything even if it costs nothing, because that's the way I am.I like where I live but there aren't many IT jobs around this area. I have been doing IT work since 2002 and enjoy my commute in some ways. It lets me cover tons of audiobooks. Dealing with traffic sucks less with a suitable distraction.
I have not worried about the price of gas. I like knowing how efficient I can be with a car. Even when I was young and driving 300-500whp cars, I still liked knowing how many miles I could squeeze out of a full tank. Hell it is why I drove a 350Z and Z06 from NJ to Disney. Many of my cars were decatted or catless, I don't care about the effects of a single cars pollution.
@Gruber Who is panicking about gas prices on the forum? People in California maybe?
As for panicking about gas prices, just look into those threads about classic car shapes such as sedans or coupes going extinct. You will read there that gas prices are dirt cheap now and they are bound to go sharply up (in the undefined "future", but always just around the corner, like the Apocalypse/Armageddon ). And then the suckers who bought SUVs will be sorry, throwing their worthless gas guzzlers over a cliff, and looking for smaller cars in a hurry. This is fantasy, because, first those SUVs are also getting much better gas mileage than the famous Hummers, and second, because gas prices are not going anywhere in the foreseeable future. Of course, unless some needy-greedy and wasteful government doubles the taxes on fuel.
