If gas goes higher what would I do.

Hmmm, I guess if it hit $5 a gallon I'd makes some adjustments to my driving. I've been paying top dollar at the pump for years running 93 octane plus octane boost in two of my toys. So I'm used to that. I only drive 16 miles total a day on most days and my work truck is used sparingly at work, maybe a parts run or what not.

My wifes commute is 20 miles to work, so the TrailBlazer averages around 20mpg depending on her mood. Two or so gallons a day. Add in other family activities we will go threw about 100 dollars a week in gas with that.

Overall I'd bet on 150 a week in gas costs for our family in this cold weather. Gas is around 3.15 a gallon, if it went to $5 it would be a big jump, to 235 or so. I'd cut out any nights out to eat. Most likely not use the toys as often in the summer but they only see about 4000 total miles in a summer combined. Getting around 12mpg in one and 15mpg in the other it can be pricey to drive them.

So threw all that mud I just wrote what would I do? Shop smarter, less nights out, less stupid purchases of stuff I want instead of need.
