Exactly. Those that use more gas will have to fill up more often and subsequently pay more of the 'gas tax.' That seems, to me at least, the way to go, if you have to have a 'go' at all.
The government gets it's money, it 'penalizes' those that use more gasoline and all without having to strap a box on your car.
