Realized that with my new job I’m at $500/month for gas. Starting to seriously consider a hybrid or electric but damn they expensive. Either way might just need something more reliable than my 320k+ car.
Whatchya driving, do you like it, and why?

Reminder, now everyone lives in the US. Gas prices are not the same globally.
yes, but not global in this case, I saw their unit of currency was dollars and was correct to narrow it down to North america. my flaw was assuming the US and ruling out our friendly neighbors to the north
New Zealand, Australia, Singapore, Brunei and even Cuban and Chilean peso use $ symbol. It’s also common to use dollars to explain a quantity of money in general if you’re not from Europe. “I pay 500$ for gas” is simply the easiest way to say “I pay this amount of money for gas” in a conversation where the audience is global.
this is probably gonna sound subtly racist but, with everything taken together, including their use of the English language it just made most contextual sense that it was an American. I’m still trying to normalize the fact that some cultures call it petrol.
