Higher petrol prices are making Americans think twice before getting behind the wheel.

Many are choosing to downsize their vehicles as motor companies begin to offer more fuel efficient options, while others are opting for public transport.

  • Damn that's alot

  • About 9USD a Gallon

  • This is good news, for many people this is the only way to start using public transportation. Even if its not their intention, by changing their commuting habits many consumers are indirectly helping to clean the planet. Now governments should improve all public transportation systems, including the public bike.

  • Just go a google search for the current price. it changes everyday.

  • How much in europe?

  • now look at how much trouble GM is in. And that affects AMERICAN jobs and our economy.  Selfish bastards.

  • BINGO! GM served their own interests.

  • not just from pressure of oil companies. they realize they wouldn't make money on the cars because they require very little maintenance. New car stores make their money on parts and labor (service) in order to stay in business

  • Watch the Movie "who killed the electric car" .. GM had a electric car 15 years ago. but they killed it themselves, bowing to pressure from the OIL companies

  • but still its nowhere expensive as in europe. so be happy.
