Speaking from a personal perspective, back in 2006 our family decided to re-evaluate our vehicle needs which resulted in switching from an Expedition (13mph) to a Matrix(29mph) and a Taurus(20mpg) to an ‘08 Prius(55mph). We consciously eliminated unnecessary trips and cut our fuel vehicle consumption/costs dramatically, despite adding three licensed teens to the mix during that period. As a family we decided we would do all we could to reduce funding ME jizya, and limited our fuel purchases to terror-free oil. Consider also the dramatic rise in online shopping.
‘Consider also the dramatic rise in online shopping.’
That is exactly why my consumption is down.
You are aware that all the gasoline to your town probably arrives by 1 or 2 pipelines to a distribution hub where the various companies mix in their special additive blend and haul it to the retailer?
