How high would gas prices have to go before you drastically changed your driving habits? How would you change them?

“If it got up to 4 bucks I would have to start thinking about getting a new vehicle. If they made a hybrid SUV or truck I’d probably get one.”

Shane Rolfe, Veazie

“I’ve already started to think about it. If it got up to $5 I might think about getting a motorcycle or scooter.”

Ryan West, Fairfield

“If it got around $3.50 I’d ride my bike to work in the summers, anyway.”

Eric Glidden, Hampden

“$3.10 would be my limit, which is just a hair over what we’ve got now. I’d just cut down on driving, and only drive to work.”

Mark Chitwood, Gouldsboro

“If it got to $4, I’d probably buy a bike.”

Michelle Fields, Brunswick

“$4. I’d try to walk more.”

Caitlin Dionne, Farmingdale
