Gas Pricing

How many of you can't wait for spring to pull the shrink wrap and gas up while the prices are half of what we paid a year ago?

Just my opinion but I believe oil has hit bottom and will be rising slowly. By spring it will be about 10-20 cents higher per gallon. Just a hunch. Also, I believe this oil crash has nothing to do with supply and demand and is actually an orchestrated tool to hurt oil rich countries like Russia, Iran and Venezuela... also Isis who is mostly funded by black market oil.

Who knows though. I'm enjoying the low prices!

Kind of a bummer this week.
No changes (prices going down) at the gas pumps all week.
Was pretty nice filling the plow trucks during the storm the other day for about $75 each.
Both trucks hold about 40 gallons each.
Last year was about $130 each for a fill up.

I might approach the local gas dock owner and see if I can lock in now for 500 gallons next season....

A few trips to the bank are in my future.
It will be easy to take if it stays around 2.50 on the docks.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
