High gas prices not deterring motorists

Not like there is any alternative. Stay home and sit in the closet?

If other people are like me about 98% of their driving is soley to and from work. There isn't much you can do to cut that back. Joy riding has been reduced for many not because of gas prices. We are just to busy or tired to just drive for no reason.

Buy a more fuel efficient American made car, and you'd be spending the money here, instead of sending it to our Saudi (Friends?).

There are plenty of alternatives.
Trade in the SUV for a more efficient car.
Cut back on road trips, take public transit more etc.
