Gas $2.31 will it go below $2 this year?
 
I paid $2.31 yesterday at a Cumby's near work. That's a big drop in a short time. Will it go below $2 this year?

Raven 10-31-2008 12:17 PM

demand was down to 7% less than july of 2007
so i say yes
people are driving less

striperman36 10-31-2008 12:25 PM

Diesel is still 3.40.
I wish diesel would drop as quickly as gasoline.

Duke41 10-31-2008 05:17 PM

i predict 1.50 by next summer. I have insider information.

Mr. Sandman 11-05-2008 02:10 PM

Paid $4.03 in Menemsha 2 days ago at the dock.

InTheHole 11-05-2008 02:33 PM

It was still $3.75 at the dock in Fairhaven 2 weeks ago when I pulled my boat. I'll top off at home by can and save over $1.50 /gal. Might take a while but it'll be worth it.

As long as those tanks, choppers, and jets are moving in the Middle East, Diesel prices will continue to be ridiculously high.

Expect to wait until at least 2010 for diesel to drop back down near unleaded like it used to be.

whiplash 11-07-2008 07:28 AM

$2.07 in New Bedford yesterday.

Crafty Angler 11-07-2008 08:36 AM

Just called my home heating oil company - this mornings price is 2.65 - it was 2.55 a couple of days ago when I got a fill-up on my tenant's tank.

It went up on election day the dispatcher told me :hs:

Anybody surprised ?

Saltheart 11-12-2008 01:45 PM

Well they are at 1.99 at 2 stations in Attleboro now.

What's the new target? Will it hit 1.50??? :)

rhahn427 11-12-2008 02:02 PM

I live in Baltimore Md and it was $1.99 at our corner gas station this morning.

striperman36 11-12-2008 02:09 PM

Not a bad jump from last week Bill,BTW how's the new Cruiser treating ya.

I was in the lovely city of Roxbury today gas was only1.97 not bad.
I like this trend of dropping gas prices,with the Holidays just around the corner every little bit helps us all.

I can't make the gas gauge move!!
I have driven 205 mi since I saw you and I have used less than 7 gal of diesel.
I am going to have to find a way to hide the decrease is fuel funding from my wife.

Told ya!!!! I was late by 7 months though. My brother in law is a Texas Oil man. He told me it was all over last June.

TheSpecialist 12-07-2008 11:24 AM

We are going to see it back under a buck, if oil keeps dropping. :wave:

Mr. Sandman 12-07-2008 12:02 PM

yeah but the real question is what will it be next June?

Tell me about it.
The price is ~40% of what it was... trip costs for fuel would be sub-$400 instead of $850ish..
Would love to lock in for ~1500Gallons for Canyon season :smash:

Mr. Sandman 12-07-2008 05:54 PM

I was thinking about buying an option on10,000 gal of gasoline futures and take delivery on it in June if things turn around. Now...where can I store it when it arrives?

Would be nice.
We would be much more inclined to run if the fuel was low; otherwise @4+/gal you end up waiting for weather AND reports, not just weather...
