Say Goodbye to Gas Guzzlers?

[Nate Hunter]

I wonder how many people have put together higher mileage = less refuels = higher gas prices. I don't know that it's true, but it certainly seems sound to me -- by making cars with a higher mileage rating people need to buy gas less often, and when people buy gas less often, the companies make less money. So they raise prices. Some people blame gas guzzlers for high prices, but maybe it's the popularity of low-mpg cars that's keeping prices from getting even worse than they are now.

That's just my $2.00 -- which can't even get me a gallon of gas thanks to the oil companies!
