I walk to work, around a mile round trip, so I rarely drive anywhere. I also work from home, which requires zero driving as well. I probably fill the tank about every month, on average, sometimes longer. I just filled it up the other day---almost 60 fucking bucks! My next car will either be a hybrid, or at the very least, a car that gets considerably better mileage than my current car--which gets around 24 mpg, in town, and around 31 on the interstate. I have a fairly new car, a 2006 Subaru Legacy, so tune-ups, aren't really necessary at this point, especially with barely over 20,000 miles on it.

On another note, I highly recommend that people at least think about trading in their gas-guzzling truck, or SUV for something more economical if it's feasible. Gas is only going to get more expensive, they're saying that oil could top $200 a barrel by the end of the year. Ethanol is a waste of time, money, and energy to develop, and only adds to the gas price dilemma, because it takes tons of gas to even make ethanol. Not to mention using corn, a primary staple in the American diet, to make the fuel. Also, ethanol actually causes more pollution than regular gasoline!
