Gas Prices

@pokeplayer, but European cars are more efficient. there are like, no turbo diesel cars out here in the states, and those get what? 60 miles per gallon? shoot soome of out "hybrids" only get 42 mpg. so price/gallon < fuel efficiency standards. heck, some states have laws where it's prohibited to even buy a turbo diesel car. it sux.
 
Its a little under 3.50 a gallon where I am at right now. I just want to see a 2 at the beginning sometime soon.
 
Well there are states that have cheaper gas like in the Midwest thanks to Ethanol fuels which lower the price of oil by a substantial margin though now it's around $3.55-$3.55 a gallon where I live.

I've been keeping track and so far prior to several weeks gas has dropped in my area by 20 cents per gallon. It's not too bad but it could be better. They could've dropped it by a dollar per gallon but oil companies are just too greedy.

One study I heard on the News said that 6 out of 10 Americans say that the high cost of gas won't stop them from staying home especially for Summer Vacation this year. That's pretty good news according to MSNBC. If you want to check for cheap gas go to GasBuddy.com...

I don't blame the Oil companies, I blame the speculators.

how is that good news??
the same amount of people using the same amount of gas just means gas prices will go up, just like every summer. unless you misquoted something..
 
I think(i might be wrong) once gaddhafis out of power, we will get his insane oil fortune and be able to knock costs down. If we overthrow him, then we are set

LOL indeed, so many overlooked rules to that, but that is a possibility.....LMAO could def bring down ONE of the costs.
 
I am extremely glad that I have a motorcycle and that Tulsa has some of the cheapest gas in the country. 3.48.
