We have Hondas too and I love the cars. But I've wondered about what would happen if an SUV hit me for a long time. Even a slow moving run away home depot cart caused some pretty nasty damage to the side of the car. I only buy regular self serve unleaded gas. It was 1.42 a couple months ago in the city next to us. I think it was around 1.69-1.74 or so here at the time. There is not much difference now. Imagine our prices have gone up 35 cents or so here but over 60 cents at the other station. That's a whopping 45% or so increase in a month or two. That HAS to hurt. If retail sales are up again, I'm going to have to think it's due to higher gas prices. I can't imagine those who drive their SUV to LA every day. YIKES!
