Sorry, I just noticed that I left out the question mark after "$3 per Gallon" in the title. Would it be possible to add it?

Thanks in advance...

Why in the hell is there a question mark?

I filled up today @ $3.05 a gallon in Palo Alto. I am already living the nightmare.

I bought two turbo Diesels last Spring. Also started carpooling approx 50% of the days (25% drop in commute miles). So my gasoline useage is now zero. Diesel useeage is ~40% of previous gas useage.

As Diesel is safer to store, I have acquired storage capacity for 3 monthgs of use. "Tanked up" over the weekend. Now I have no need to buy until after the 4th of July.

Oil Companies used to stockpile to even out prices and useage. Now they don't. Wake up and start to take care of yourselves. No one else is gonna do for ya. ;-)

You need to change it to "$4./gallon?". Over $3 here for the last 3 days, and headed for $4.!!

It is $3 already. Even $4 in some places. But not here in Alaska. We are still giving gasoline away for $2.41. Except in the village. It's $7 there.

For those of you in the know. How does $3.00 per gallon breakdown into who gets what - oil well, refiners, distribution, retailer, etc. ?? Anyone know a reference web cite?

Back when I bought my car, I had a chance to buy the hybrid version but decided against it. We did the math and figured that gas would have to be $5 per gallon for four years to make it worthwhile. If we see $4 a gallon gas this summer I think we will see $5 gallon gas when Iran starts to heat up.
Doh!
