...has the rising price of gas made you cutback on driving at all, or made you adjust your driving habits? No.

...will we reach $4.00 per gallon this year? I will not be at all surprised.

...what did you pay per gallon on your last fill-up? $3.65

...do you or have you ever car-pooled? No, the commute I had to work was about 5 minutes, no point to car-pooling.

...would you consider car-pooling if that option was conveniently available to you? n/a

...do you usually fill up your tank or pay a certain amount when you gas up? fill up

...is there a "danger zone" where you won't let your gas gauge fall below? My car tells me how many miles I have left in my tank; I have gone down to zero and continued to drive for about 20 miles after that before filling up (!) Usually I fill up if I get down below 40 miles left.

...have you ever run out of gas? Nope!

I was wondering...

...has the rising price of gas made you cutback on driving at all, or made you adjust your driving habits? Yes, I turn the car off while waiting, drive our Prius more often, and lump more errands together by location.

...will we reach $4.00 per gallon this year? this year, heck at this rate it'll be next month.

...what did you pay per gallon on your last fill-up? $3.89

...do you or have you ever car-pooled? to kids sports practices yes, but not to work

...would you consider car-pooling if that option was conveniently available to you? I don't know, our schedule is so goofy that I don't think it would work

...do you usually fill up your tank or pay a certain amount when you gas up? fill up

...is there a "danger zone" where you won't let your gas gauge fall below? I usually try to fill up at about 1/4 tank on the van and one bar on the Prius.

...have you ever run out of gas? Yes, as a teen. I had the family car, no gas card, no allowance, and no job so I couldn't afford to fill up the car. My mom left it with little more than fumes and I had no money to put any gas in it. Two weeks later, I had a credit card for the local gas station.

...has the rising price of gas made you cutback on driving at all, or made you adjust your driving habits?

Without a doubt, I plan my trips more carefully, maximize my driving time and avoid unnecessary trips. I am staying home much more than I used to right now.

...will we reach $4.00 per gallon this year?

Again, without any doubt. I think a more accurate question is if we'll exceed $5 a gallon by this summer.

...what did you pay per gallon on your last fill-up?
It was around $3.50

...do you or have you ever car-pooled?

Yes, we carpool at every opportunity, of course I am not commuting to work daily so that makes a difference. We have a carpool to take the kids to their classes each week, if we have a field trip or other activity we organize things to take as few vehicles as possible, etc.

...would you consider car-pooling if that option was conveniently available to you?

...do you usually fill up your tank or pay a certain amount when you gas up?

I fill it up.

...is there a "danger zone" where you won't let your gas gauge fall below?

I try not to fall below a quarter tank, though I am filling up a bit more frequently right now, psychologically it's less painful!

...have you ever run out of gas?

Nope
