GAS $4 a Gallon by Summer

I'm listening to the radio this morning and they indicated that the price of gas will be $4 a gallon by summer...

How's this going to affect your paintball traveling plans?

the thing we are doing for dredd is a good example.. renting a minivan for 6-7 of us minivan gets 25-28mpg i figure with the load being carried will drop to 20mpg. this not olny makes it affordable to go but insures that our numbers stay up aslo.
thinking about buying a school bus for these trips.
