Gas Prices Through The Roof

[PSI2HI]

Who in the hell took charge of gas prices lately, just went to fill up last night and my jaw damn near dropped. Reg $2.99, premium $3.49, diesel #2 $3.54, diesel #1 $3.94.

I'd really like to know how we can have such a drastic difference in price. Someones trying to fuck us!

Supply & Demand

Next?

Im very cusrious to see how much transportation/shipping costs go up next year w/ these fuel prices.

[Evan]

F**k!!! I just took my car back to Minot and now Im driving a V8... shit, I havent even filled up yet.

What's worse is that they'll most likely keep going up. I heard on the news this morning that it's not out of the realm of possibility that we could be looking at a $4/gallon average this time next year.

I'm gonna hate riding my bike in the snow.

Yeah I heard $4 a gallon for REGULAR. I can't imagine paying $4.50 for premium. I thought it was spendy when I paid $2.50 a couple years ago.

I'm happy I drive a 4 cylinder and ride a 49cc scooter right about now. This shit's getting out of hand.

Looks like I'll be riding one of the bikes I have after all. Besides, it will definately be healthier.

[Jim]

It was $3.20 by my house for regular... now back down to $3.05, stuff changes so much, it was just $2.59 the other week.

I pray for the day I run into a big-wig oil executive in a deserted alley...

[MisterCMK]

The price will go up and up and up until demand drops like a rock and then the price will come down. 70s all over again anyone?

Except the 70's price hikes weren't exponentiated by China and Russia suddenly becoming industrialized modern nations with gigantic demand for oil. It used to be the US and the US only who took in large quantities of oil, now those other 2 fuggers are wanting the same supply we get.

It gets a little more complicated than simple supply and demand....

[DaveH]

Supply and demand does have a little to do with it, but it's mostly the commodity speculators jerking our chains.

[JN210]

I heard from somewhere that if the gas prices keep going up...newer cars price's will drop...This is getting ridiculous, I am very sure it's safe to say that prices will be along the lines of 5-6$ a gallon this time next year...assuming that this increase continues of course.

That's the whole problem, everyone is buying hondas or not selling theirs, and the price of them is getting rediculously high, making it a bitch to find a good deal on one these days...
