I believe it will take more than $3 a gallon. Unfortunately I suspect most people will bankrupt themselves before they will go away from the car in droves. Also unfortunately a sizable portion of the country doesn't have working mass transit. Once you leave most major cities (with the possible exception of some college towns) mass transit ceases to exist in any usable form.
