When I wrote the post below, I mentioned our gasoline usage per year because I had in the back of my mind this article that Gregg Easterbrook wrote in September of 2001. In the article, Mr. Easterbrook mentions that every licensed driver in the US uses 875 gallons of gasoline per year. Doing the numbers, we use about 28% of the normal family's intake. I do not like to be vilified without reason.

Apart from all that, we are in the market for a dependable 4-door sedan for local use. Do you have something for about $6000?
