2004 Cavalier LS here, got 36 MPH last trip north, Craig,
excellent post, this did make as much sense when it hit $1 as now,
as to why, only when major changes in the prices do we, as a whole,
even think about it. I suppose that if gas slowly went up over the
last couple of years to $3, most people still wouldnt even think about
using less. BTW this is the 5th cavalier I have purchased, all for
the same reasons,. MPG. 

John

If between summer 2001 and summer 2005, gas went up ONE CENT A WEEK, we'd be up to $3 from $1 per gallon. Food for thought.
