Heard some talk on the news this AM, says that the price is being driven up right now by the "futures" mkt, not supply or demand, or shortage.. Thanks, Wall Street.....  |

"Futures" I hate that term it is so BS. I can see the future that after it hits $3 a gallon it will again go down to $2 something......so lets just keep it were it is!

Enjoy it now boys. According to the news several weeks ago, economists expect gas to top $4 a gallon this summer.

Raven, I heard 3 also.. 4.... well, if the greedy bastages want it, they will get it....... and they think they have a lot of "drive offs" now..
at 4 bucks, I would venture a guess, that self serve might become different, prolly a lot of insert dough first, or credit card or ATM first. Pump (first) and pay inside, will likely disappear.
4 would seriously impact the economy, no that 3 wont have an effect.

Heard on the news gas hit record high today per barrel and will go higher. Time to sell the pickup and look for a Jeep or something.

The Sand Sled is now for sale... I will get something else - full size - for towing and beech creeping but I am wasting miles on the truck doing 80-90 miles round trip per day just commuting for work...
AD in the Classifieds shortly...
BTW - two things I have done which improve mileage, drive 65-70 on the hwy instead of 70-80 - worth 2 mpg on average, and the other thing was to get a Scan Guage ( http://www.scangage.com/ ) which allows me to watch my instantaneous mileage and drive more efficiently... Between the two I can push into the high teens on the highway... |

Here in Jersey whee we have low fuel taxes the price at the pump is $2.67. That is for no name gas pumped by guys that can't speak english. The only thing they do well is fill out deposit slips for the local bank!!!

With oil at over $70 bl now, Im guessing this is just the excuse they need to raise the prices to a new high.
My guess is $3.49 by Mem day, and $3.89+ by July4.We may even see over $4.
Biodiesel is looking better & better every day.

2.89 self serve here in Cumberland. I expect $3.50 by Mem Day.
I get 18 miles per gallon in my Blazer. Burn about 1000 gallons per year. My truck payment is $200 per month. A new hybrid car would be free based on the gas savings. In fact the car will be free and I'd still pocket some money per year.
