gas and $$$

You have it going pretty well except for a few flaws as I see it.
The major one is that you are saying that people want to ruin the enviroment but don't want to pay for it. I would understand your point loud and clear if the money went BACK into the enviroment. But instead, where does it go to, oil companies and gas stations, and a portion goes away as tax. There are some gas companies like Shell who claim they do something for the enviroment but I believe that it is at a minimum just to make it a nice commercial. So if people ***** about the higher and higher jumps in prices it is because it's the oil companies who are getting the benefits and the average consumer is getting jibbed!

Maybe its just me, but i dont see those as flaws in my arguement; its a fact. There is little that can be done to make gas burn better. Running higher ocs help to do that but its not up to the gas companies to increase the mpg that suvs and "light trucks" get.

Kyle the idea is to keep the miles low so i have a better resale value and the job doesn't pay enough for a second car. But great idea otherwise!
