post em up!!!! Gas prices

not high enough. i feel like i have too much money in my pocket right now. im hoping to see $6/gal so i can hear more people cry about it while i completely neglect what the signs say and just fill my car up completely full with a retarded smile on my face.
 


A year or two back my dad said to me that gas was going to be $5 a gallon by summer of that year. I looked him square in the eyes and said, "I will still drive to work and still use gas. Therefore the price only effects how much extra money I have at the end of the pay period."

Simply put..I'm going to use 93 octane and I'm going to pay whatever for it. Swipe, pump, drive, repeat

We have all groaned about this, especially those of use with Superchargers or SUVs/Trucks.

I went to gas up tonight and it was $3.30 a gallon (93 Octane)!!! DURING WINTER!!!! WTH!!!!

Just cause *****ia is errupting in violence, the oil traders say hey! Lets jack up the price of oil!!! And of course our greedy oil companies immediately jump on the bandwagon and jack up the prices. I mean just last friday I gassed up for only $3.18 a gallon.

When I went home to Louisville just just before Christmas, I drove home on the Friday before Christmas, I gassed up in Evansville IN and it was only $2.98 a gallon (92 Octane) as compared to $3.15 when I came back home to St. Louis. I sware gas prices vary so widely its not even funny. I really think there needs to be more regulation on price control. I mean you can drive from St. Louis County out to Jeffereson County and it costs like 10 cents less a gallon. Just for driving an extra 10-20 miles out of your way. Its crazy.

One day this country is going to implode. We have been spoiled as compared to our European brothren who pay out of the tookus for their petrol. If we hit those kind of numbers here in the States, it will be mayhem.

Just another rant for the night :)

I feel better now :)

driving a car isnt an everyday thing it's a luxury and if u wanna play u gotta pay, and thousands of people cant afford cars. im finding it expensive myself, but im still living at home so in a way its not a problem for me yet

luxury? not an everyday thing? ... i'm not sure what kind of town you live in, but here the average commute is 15-30 minutes. takes me 20 just to get to school. it is a requirement and an everyday thing.
 


I wish there was a bus system where I live but, I live out in the sticks. My nearest neighbor is about 2.5 miles down the road.
 


Im currently on a work trip in Ottawa, and gas here for 87 is 1.30ish a liter which comes in just under 5 bucks a gallon...higher octanes are significantly more...prices were about 3.60ish back home in Massachusetts before I left beggining of the month...
