Gore kind of stole his thunder with his own plan and is calling on all Americia to get on board he just kind of forgot to follow his own advise.

Also in other news I saw gas today for $3.79.

Re: F... gas prices
 

isn't it funny that now we look at gas for $3.79 a gallon as cheap? i just bought gas at B.J.s for $3.73/ gallon

Re: F... gas prices
 

If prices fall back under $3 I might start calling it cheap. Until then gas prices still suck.

Re: F... gas prices
 

I was just happy to see my gas prices at my local wawa fall down to 3.83 lol. It still don't matter though because I buy plus, my car gets better mileage from it.

Re: F... gas prices
 

Talked to a lady today that bought gas on Rt. 17 on York County, VA for 37.5 cents a gallon. She thought something wrong with her car when looked at receipt. After going in the office the clerk realized they had put in .375 cents a gallon versus $3.75. Correction was made quickly.

Re: F... gas prices
 

Just filled up today for 3.37 here in OKC. Its pathetic that i'm bragging about that being cheap.

Re: F... gas prices
 

We're getting screwed out here...gas is $4.30 around my neighborhood.

Re: F... gas prices
 

The midwest is notorious for high gas prices, so I might have to jump on the $4.05 I just saw.

Next summer, prices could be anywhere between $4.80 and $6.00 around here. Already looking for ways to cut driving out of my living essentials.

Re: F... gas prices
 

Riding my bicycle to work and have been since I dropped the lease on my Caddy 3.6 CTS last Feb.

Gas prices are horrendous in my area (Westlake Village, CA).

Of course cycling to work at midnight is nice, quiet and helping me stay healthy.

I doubt gas ever goes below 3.25 again. It may drop to ~ 3.50 after the summer but the days of "cheap" gas are over.

Re: F... gas prices
 

Wow. We had a $0.54 increase today. Glad I filled up both cars yesterday.

That's the impact of Ike, all Gulf oil production has shut down for the time being.

Luckily it's just temporary. Once the storm is gone the price should revert back within a few weeks.

funny how it can go up .54 cents overnight but it takes a few weeks for it to adjust down. pffff...

It might have something to do with it being impossible to fix the busted oil rigs, pipelines, and refineries overnight.

But I'm sure the more likely explanation is an industry-wide conspiracy to gouge you of every red cent.
