It's only unbelievable if you don't think about it.

It has to be affordable enough
May 18, 2022, 12:33 PM
|
|
for emergencies, for situations where no other fuel can substitute in, etc., but expensive enough to shift a lot of the market away. Of course, once that happens and demand goes down, the price will then decrease but people will not want to go back.

I don't think all those industries will shift to other fuels in 6 months, just to be clear. I was referring to when I thought the price might get jacked up to $6.

other situations where there weren't other fuel options, seemingly without recognizing that those 'other situations' pretty much make up the entirety of our supply chain.

I do recognize how oil dependent we are, but I realize I may have suggested otherwise. I was trying to explain why I wouldn't want prices to go higher.

Costs us about $45 to go 500 miles in the Prius C.

Don't see how you guys do it.
I think our car is worth quite a bit more than we paid for it. Have to give my wife credit for finding that puppy in such clean condition with low miles at a low price three years ago after my son totaled the Civic.

I just checked the tow capacity of the Prius C. The hitch weight rating is 300lbs and the tow capacity is 2,000 lbs. You’ve convinced me! I’m buying one today to pull my 10,000 lbs hydroseeder! Woo Hoo!!!
