Some experts say you won't see drivers really get price sensitive until they are routinely paying $100 every time they fill up.

...Jessica Simpson and John Mayer on or off? The New York Post's PAGE SIX can't decide, first saying "our spies saw Mayer flirting with other women ... and overheard the shaggy-haired musician tell friends he was 'happy being single.'" Later, Page Six claimed the two had reunited. Maybe somebody ought to ask Johnsica? SCORE...
