That's how you know high gas prices are here to stay

[Ja Rhule]

I had BP credit card for the past 4 years. I was getting back 5% on every $1 spent on my gas. Even when gas prices were $5 a gallon I was still getting 5% back. This month BP switched us (members) to $0.11 for every gallon purchased... First change since BP released it's credit card. Gas companies expecting price of gasoline to go through the roof sometime this year so they trying to save themselves from paying $50-$100 a month in gas rebates. That's how you know poo is gonna be bad soon.

yep. they know how to be risk adverse and are hunkering down.

The bad economy is the only thing that's kept this from happening already. The fact that they are doing this now means they are expecting things to keep going well overall, which sucks for us in this particular case.

I'm glad I drive a fuel efficient car and live two miles from work. My commute to work will only cost me about $8/mo.

I used to have a Tundra. Loved it, til gas got to $4/gal. $100 weekly fill ups killed me.

Go buy a bike.

Go buy a bike.

I'm actually going to start biking to work (or at least I've told myself I'm going to). I can just ride down the residential uptown streets that get little traffic to my office.

<<<< Drives a hybrid

Company pays for all gas.

[Niner National]

Yeah I have a hybrid too. It's pretty nice these days. A $38 tank of gas will take me 500+ miles unless I'm driving through the mountains.

I got a GTI last fall; it's not the greatest mileage car but on the highway I can get 32MPG with it and it's still a blast - the old Jeep was doing 22 on the highway and was as unfun to drive as anything could be I think. I still keep it around for towing and lugging around dirty or oversized stuff.

[Montsta]

I drive 100 miles a day for work. My Altima gets good gas mileage but damn that sucks. Guess the 5% raise I just got won't do me a whole helluva lot now.
