Survive Record High Gas Prices
by Blake HygateWith gas prices now at record highs in the United States it has become more important than ever for drivers to try to conserve fuel. For years environmentalists have warned that this day would come. Not only is excessive fuel use bad for the environment it is also very costly. Keeping these two factors in mind, consumers are looking for ways to reduce their fuel consumption. Many have turned to buying small, economical cars as a way to combat rising gas prices. Many US automakers have begun to step up production of small cars which have fuel consumption around 40mpg, which if you drive quite a bit can still be somewhat costly to own. Record high fuel and insurance costs have made it very expensive to own a car of any kind. So what is the alternative to owning a car? You could move closer to your job and walk, but this may not be feasible. If you work in a downtown location such as Manhattan, rentals and housing prices are very expensive. Another option would be to use public transit. Public transit is great in some cities and other cities have major issues with public transit. Unfortunately given the distance that many drive to work, public transit may be a very slow option. I once interviewed for a position where in order to get to work, I would have to walk a fair distance to the bus stop, ride the bus for 15 minutes to the subway station. Then I would ride the subway for 30 minutes at which point I would exit the subway and get onto another bus. I just could not imagine doing this everyday! An increasingly popular way to save money on fuel is to purchase a motor scooter. For years the environmental or budget conscious driver have used motor scooters extensively. Not only are they economical, but in recent years have become a trendy transportation option. At almost 100 mpg, they can save literally thousands on fuel costs. The most popular are Vespa scooters or Honda scooters. Some slightly less popular are Suzuki scooters. As of the past few years we have even saw the entrance of a few less expensive models entering the marketplace. Wildfire scooters can be purchased for less than $1000! If you are in a position where you need to save money on fuel, you should consider the purchase of a motor scooter. Environmental consciousness, budget saving and trendy; Motor scooters are a hot commodity today.
