Now the gas prices in my area has risen more than $0.50 in one week. From $2.92/Gallon to $3.49/Gallon. I'm going to trade my Yaris in for a motorcycle. I don't care if I ride my bike through snow storm or a hurricane, at least I'll have money to feed my wife and my kids.

I have one.. but I think my yaris gets better fuel mileage. Besides, it's tough hauling kids and a wife on the back of a motorcycle.. Sidecar FTW!

$3.19/gallon here in Oklahoma City. I appreciate the Yaris, too bad my wife's and my daughter's cars get about half it's mileage. *sigh*

Last time prices went up like this we started car pooling in the yaris. Might be time to start thinking about that again.

I just paid $3.85 in Irvine, CA. sigh...

Gas price goes up again. I think I'll start selling my kidney.

The rest of the world has long been paying much higher prices for gasoline. Why we Americans are taking the low prices for granted like spoiled brats?

If one doesn't like to pay so much, they can sell their damn SUV or TRUCK and noone is stopping them. In fact, it's going to be easier to breath to those babies who are suffering asthma due to exhaust pollution from these damn useless SUVs and TRUCKS that are wastefully driven by single drivers, on under inflated tires, to rent a video or buy fast food....

Suck up the gas price and stop complaining. If you don't like to pay the real price for gasoline, use this:

When I had my ninja 250 it was getting over 75MPG US. It was costing me a whole $16-18 to fill and would get 400-450km/tank.

Now my CBR 250RR gets only 55MPG but its a million times better.

Nice bikes.. The new Ninja 250s are really cool looking, I had an '05 250 it was fun to ride. It was actually my ex wife's bike, although I put more miles on it then she did.

My Honda 929 may get 30mpg if I can behave myself, which is rare. lmao

This is true! We already have a lot more then we use to have and they just keep getting better.

^ well said!

And then, we can all pray that no other oil producing country in the Middle East declares a revolution *sigh*

We're past $4.00 / gallon in San Francisco. I forgot to take a picture this morning, for a minute there, when I looked at the pump, I thought I was back in Europe. :(
