Really, it's way too high, especially when the prices of gas are comparatively cheaper.
13k in transportation alone!!! I'd buy a car, drive it for 120000 in this much money here in India.
Whenever I look at such numbers for US or Europe, I always wonder why would they spend this much? I mean double to ours can be understandable but it's like 100 times more. We'd hardly spend $10 to $20 for a daily commute of 50 miles.

I think higher income households really skew the transportation numbers. Car insurance is expensive and those households will have three or four fairly expensive vehicles. The cost of gas will be a fairly trivial portion of the costs.
