I can currently afford to drive to work at just over $5.29/US Gallon. I'd say I'm at my threshold right now.
I'm one of those folks that refuses to spend 3+ hours on public transit daily for the sake of the planet. If gas got much more expensive, I'd look into demanding a company gas card or finding a job closer to home.

Word. My daily transit commute would be 2 hours 10 minutes on a good day. My drive would be around 1 hour 50 minutes in regular traffic (and vastly more expensive since I've got a free transit pass from work).
I do it for my pocket book mostly. Even at 45mpg, my motorcycle is still more expensive than the bus. plus I get a lot of reading done and I often get work done, too. So it's less time in the office.
I figured it would take $5 or a little over to get people to really change their habits.....I think if gas went to $10 we would see an exodus from the suburbs to the city.
These vehicles will use two-thirds less gasoline than full hybrids, says Duvall. CalCars estimates that drivers will be able to fill up their "electric tank" for less than $1 a gallon, based on the average U.S. electricity rate.
The problem with 'plug it in cars' is that the electricity comes from a plant that most likely burns some product of oil. This just moves the gas engine to one central location that everyone feeds off of. In order to make this work out well, we need more natural power producing devices (ie, Windmills, dams, geothermal).
it's this demonstration of your staggering intellect that makes an obviously jealous DRB haunt you, hoping you'll show some sign of weakness, of slowing, of faltering. sadly, nothing of the sort will be had, and soon all shall know the elusive mysteries of cancer, ass aides, & puppy love are in its last throes w/ you at the helm.
