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?

        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.
