Are you going to cut back on travel due to high gas prices and inflation?

[Backwoods]

We have several adventures planned and I won't change plans I bought our Toy Hauler to enjoy and I work hard to have things and I'll pay whatever the cost of diesel is at those times. That idiot in Washington will not control our lives.

We have one EV, a Chevy Bolt and are using it more. I parked my SUV and switched to driving a Miata. We still plan to drive our SUV on long trips.

 

[SWB]

No, but will be cutting back on other stuff. Like eating out an other small stuff.

 

[Barracuda]

I already have some things planned and I am going to still do those. I won't say it won't impact plans for other trips, but I will try to just minimize costs where I can...

 

[SWB]

I think everyone else has same plan for most part. Went to work out this morning. Very few people on roadways at 9am. Drive thru line were short too.

Thanks for the replies! It's looking like 50/50 so far with the no's and everyone else holding back or slowing down. I wonder how different it would be if we weren't coming out of lockdowns. No matter what, I hope we don't get stuck with all of this inflation very long.

Same here, Kalirado is controlled by the Denver metro communist MFers.

Such a beautiful state. Only been there once but almost every day I think about being there. At least when you're in a tent at 10000 ft elevation, zero degrees, and 2' of snow you kinda forget all these first world problems, and politics.

Going to H&M in Gilbert in May. Was hoping to make some quick 1 night runs to Rush offroad, and down to Ivy branch, but if gas stays high probably just ride local.

Still going to do the plans that we do every year. We're not getting rid of our toy hauler we're still going to the Takeover as we have the last five years running. We're still going to go to our cabin as often as we want in northern Michigan that's a three and a half hour drive. Just not going to drive my truck as often and drive the Ole lady's Nautilus when we can because of the great mileage it gets. We ordered two brand new Ski-Doos so I'm not changing any of that. Am I pissed about these gas prices? You bet your ass I am but I'm not going to let those dicklickers in Washington ruin my way of life. We may cut back on a few small things like TV and going out to eat not nearly as often. But we're going to live life the best we can as usual not let those assholes bring us down!

Not changing any plans, hoping things may be less crowded, on the road, and at destinations......We'll see....

Which sleds did you snowcheck?

renegade 600 EFI eTech’s with some extra goodies.

 

[driller]

Hopefully the fuel cost drive the high cost of trucks and toys down and I can buy some more.

Ha! I was thinking the same.

At some point, I want to go back to NC to get the rest of my stuff but that’s a long road trip I’m not liking. Then there’s StMaries ID in April. Then there’s the whole circumnavigation of the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness sometime in late summer??? E-Gad man, what ever shall we do if hither pumping prices ponder perplexing perplexities…? Ack, Tis quite the most of bothersome preponderances…

 

[100Acre]

Also, does the question also refer to different dimensions?

 

[Dockman]

Not cutting back on SxS plans. However we have a lake boat with twin engine and as of now it's staying in storage this summer. So no cabin/lake weekends for me.

Why not? Are your "natural meds" impacted by inflation?

My natural meds are actually reading the Bible. I’m just silly in general because otherwise I’m not…

 

[waynester]

Being new I was looking for local rallies and group rides, don't know why, but friends and family are balking at getting 3rd jobs to finance any "away" rides. Go figure.

That's interesting and a good idea. After 2 yrs of covid lockdowns I'm worried that we are just going to give into these high prices and let them think it's ok.

Yep, most let the government force them into getting the jab, so now they’re trying to force electric vehicles on us, and blaming Russia for it when prices started rising the very first day of this.., well you know.
