Exactly! I see the interviews with people who "can't afford" these gas prices, and maybe 8 out of 10 are driving fairly new vehicles, often SUVs or big pickups. So I have to wonder how those folks could afford the new vehicles (or payments), but not the fuel.

FWIW, I consider myself fairly well-off, but one of my two vehicles is a 2000, the other is an '88.
