How much is 1 gal of gas in your area.

Mobil Rt. 300 has reached $3.99, Sunoco on Rt. 52 has been holding steady at $3.97, Crooks at Snakville have reached the $3.99 mark as well. Haven't passed the Hess station today so no report on them.

Filled up at around 1115 today for $3.89, on my way back home from work at 7pm I saw that it rose to $3.94!

I'm outside of chicago. In Naperville, it's about $4.02. in Chicago, I've seen it as high as 4.30 for regular unleaded.

I filled up on the way home: $4.099 for regular unleaded.

For some reason Florida is the highest. Today 93 oct hit $ 4.09. Ouch.
Diesel at $ 4.59.
Its going to be an ugly summer.

that HAS been the way its gone, but i think we are in for a change in that pattern. i sense a faster rise without the drop down this fall. i think our oil supply is much tighter than anyone wants to let on.

I don't think it's the oil supply. I think it's the refining capacity. Or perhaps capacity is the wrong term. I think more could be refined. I think the refiners are capping capacity to keep supply low and prices high.

A few years back at a meeting of oil execs there was a powerpoint about the breaking point of the consumer. Their research showed that they could raise the price of gasoline to $5.00 a gallon before consumers rebelled. There's be a slow but steady rollercoaster increase to that point.

Fine. Let them. It will drive more people to hybrids and increase the demand for EV, alternative fuel, public transportation, living closer to work, etc. AND it will also drive more people to cost cutting living styles, installing PV, solar, wind, home gardening, recycling, etc.
