I love all the comments stating “oh that’s still cheap.”
Lil bro, I probably drive more in a month just for the menial shit I need to do than you do in a year, and I work from home.
We don’t even fucking have sidewalks where I live.

It’s not impossible. I had a 1.5 hour one-way commute to work at one point.

It depends on the area, but it’s not uncommon to drive more than 30 or 40 miles a day for a work commute in California (especially if you’re trying to live in a cheaper area away from where the jobs are located).

I don’t drive one of the giant brotrucks that I see daily, those guys are absolutely fucked. Gas is $4 where I am, but I expect it over $5 by the time summer hits and those assholes with their 8mpg highway are going to be hurting
I drive like… 200 miles every 2 weeks or so in total? I fill up once a month and at current prices that’s about $60 for my car

For some reason this comment reminded me of that Cuban dude that retrofitted his car to run on coal because of American sanctions. What a world we live in.

Good news is, once enough of you cant afford the fuel anymore, you can easily convert one of the 8 lanes into a sidewalk.
Or even… gasp a cycle path. dun dun dunnnn
