    I know of several friends who act the same way. one of them actually drives a couple of miles out of his way to save 2 or 3 cents per gallon. I should think, if one drove slower and didn't start up fast from a stop makes more sense.

    Well I certainly spend less time pressing the accelerator pedal than I used to, but the only way to really save on petrol is not allow voters to vote for a complete idiot to run the US government like they have the past 8 years!

    Newsflash for Desiderata:

    President Bush doesn't set the price of gasoline in Japan or anywhere else.

    I've never understood this. Is there any other product that people go to such extremes to save what amounts to a few dollars?

    Well President Bush doesn't live in this guy's closet either, but I have a feeling he still checks it every night. ;)

    ancientone now just a few cents. That's nearly 25yen per liter. (about 4 liters per gallon) So not 3 or 4 cents. We're talking almost 1.00USD per gallon cheaper. I'd drive 20 minutes for 1USD a gallon cheaper. Wouldn't you?

    A gallon isn't an idea, it's a measure of capacity. :-)
