STORY

In the interest of being fair and balanced, there's also this:

Oil Prices Fall Below $64 a Barrel

[jdm]

...because I haven't seen any hysterical gas price threads on FR in a while. :O)

[Senator Goldwater]

Republicans, if they are smart, should be hammering Dmeocrats over their weakness on fuel taxation.

[Sundog]

[Flavius]

its called apathy

[BJungNan]

When it gets to $4/gallon I will get hysterical. Right now it is only at $3.64.

$3.64 Shell Benicia, CA
$3.59 Chevron Blairsden-Graeagle, CA
$3.59 Shell Fairfield, CA
$3.55 Chevron Coalinga, CA

That’s regular folks, not Mid-grade of Supreme.

[NonValueAdded]

No new U.S. refinery has been built in three decades, increasing the strain on existing plants.

Says it all.

[BJungNan]

If I could figure out how to use that without the roller skates it would be a good idea. Me and roller scates get along worse than me and $4 per gallon.

[endthematrix]

When did apathy govern economics?

[kcvl]

No new U.S. refinery has been built in three decades, increasing the strain on existing plants.

Because of all the rules and regulations plus the environMENTALists.

[familyop]

Let’s see what the gas prices are like after Iran has nuclear weapons.

[bad company]

Bring it on.

[kcvl]

$2.59 - $2.63 in Arkansas (Oil Belt)

[Osage Orange]

$2.59 in B’ville, OK.........

[beaversmom]

Right around $2.75 here in Aurora, CO.

[endthematrix]

I was riding my ‘79 Honda 185cc dual sport today.

[longtermmemmory]

REMEMBER these experts predicted FIVE DOLLAR gas last year.

[Myrddin]

$2.77 for regular in Pocatello, ID. I can buy it for $2.67 with my discount at Fred Meyer. Not bad considering I'm filling a 2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid. It's getting 32.8 MPG average...including freeway driving at 75 MPH and mountain driving.

[Flavius]

when?

well first you get use to 2

then you get use to 3

then you get use to 4

then back to pintos

then they crash the market and your back to big cars

70-s 80’s crash

so there will be i guess 00-s 10’s crash as well

or wait yeah we’ll run on sugar water the ethanol brew right

[ozzymandus]

Them’s the breaks, cowboy. Been to the grocery store lately? I looked at a little package of cheese slices today that was nearly $6. WTF?

[Prokopton]

$2.59 in central Minnesota, down 10 cents in the last 3 days.
