actually, hummers would be terrible for a jungle - much too wide.
the original samurai, or a sidekick/tracker would be a great jungle "truck".

Here in the UK, petrol is around 8 dollars a gallon - you guys are lucky!
Yes, but a significant portion of that cost is in taxes imposed by your own government. On average less than $.50 of a gallon of gas goes to taxes here in the US, although it can vary from state to state and city to city.
I have noticed that driving relaxed and normal speed saves gas and makes others' angry.
Depends on what your definition of relaxed and normal speed is. ;D I drive a few miles over the speed limit. I.e., 39-40 in a 35. I do see many people who drive 10 miles or more below the speed limit. However, I don't like to comment on them at this time.
I drive like you, just a few miles over the speed limit. Other people want to zoom around me all the time. I used to do that. On the other hand, some drive below the speed and drive me crazy.
Also, when I see traffic ahead and there may me a possiblity that light will turn yellow, I slow down instead of rushing through the intersection. When I see stop sign approaching I take my foot off the excellerator, instead of a hard stop at the end or a fast start.
If I am stuck on the freeway, I don't tail gate. I kind of let my car crawl along as much as possible, even if there is space ahead of me, if I see red lights ahead. I say: What's the hurry?
Oh we know why it is expensive, but what I was trying to say is that the end consumer still has to pay 8 dollars a gallon compared to what the end consumer has to pay in the USA regardless of taxes. ;D
Baggss, corn based ethanol is no better for the environment than fossil fuels, it takes alot of energy, usually from fossil fuels or coal, to get it in a usable energy form. On top of that, it isn't anywhere near as efficient as gasoline.
Link to diesel emissions Here's the skinny on WVO Vs' BioD. Vs Dino. Juice
Diesel here is 2.79 a gallon though I'm not bothered in the slightest by gas prices. As long as america keeps up its current diet I'll have stock piles of fuel. Although after owning a diesel I'd be hard pressed to go back to gas. That's just my opinion and I'd say I'm a driving enthusiast. I have no loss in power, torque, acceleration, the only thing thats different is the smell my car emits. Smells like corn chips over here The oil I run on is already been burned once so any of the harmful carbons that were in it are burned out before i use it.
