Knighty Tin,

RE: "Consumers drive 20,000 miles per year, on average. If they get 10 MPG in their plug-ugly SUVs, that's 2000 gallons. If they pay an extra 50 cents per gallon, that's $1000. Or, 3 nights at a good resort hotel."

Yes, in the scheme of things it doesn't seem like such a big deal to me...but apparently it is to a lot of folks. People don't like to pay for gasoline.

I'd love to see more people start walking instead of driving everywhere...would do wonders for peoples' health. The level of corpulence in the US is ridiculous.
