Fuel prices
I thought some of you might enjoy this.

Many of you can count yourselves lucky; we're already paying $6.47 per US gallon.
At least I no longer have to do the school run

RE: Fuel prices
I laughed out loud because of the truth in that little video. (Even though we have a long way to catch up to Europe. In conversion it's about $8-$10 dollars a gallon. Or it would take about over $230 US dollars to fill my tank in my Mercedes with the premium it requires.)
But on the side note as mention earlier, when they start putting some effort into making good quality alternative fueled cars instead of the BS they are churning out these days, then I'ma continue to happily fill up my Mercedes with premium fuel and drive all over the US in comfort and style that I like. (Now if they had a way that I could retro fit a hydrogen fuel source with my Mercedes and not mess with the reliablity and quality and or add any noise to it, I'm all for it straight cash money. Hell, I'll buy two. Or if they come out with a good quality car with some style and room in it that ran on alternative fuel, I'll buy one of them to sit next to the Benz. Geesh with the current ones on the market today, you would think that everyone had nothing but midgets for friends. My rule of thumb is that if my 6'4 brother can't sit comfortable in the back seat with the person in front of him comfortable, then the car is too small. The car is the extension of the living room. IN ya living room you want everyone to feel right at home, cozy. You don't want them to be packed up like folded sardines, uncomfortable, or plain wave hate coming over because your living room is more like a torture chamber.
