Gas prices

[Punisher]

Well this morning I was watching the news and they was talking about the gas prices and they were saying in the next 4 to 5 months we may have prices as high as $7.00 a gal. and I was like :eek:.....
WTF is going on with this country!!??
What are your gas prices now?
Florida cheapest is $3.09
and the highest is $3.49

[LizardRunner]

reg. here is 2.98 and premium is 3.19. what's going on is greed as usual. :( In Alberta Canada regular is now 4.50-5.00 per gallon. talk about ouch.

[bigjim350]

The cheapest I can find Reg around me is $2.77. The highest I've seen was $2.88

[Punisher]

shit im going to have to move to texas to get gas then LOL...

[Mudderoy]

This is highly contingent on many factors. If you've paid attention in the past they often say stuff like this and it doesn't happen.

Remember too that the mass media likes to say things to shock you and get you talking. They love blizzards, hurricanes, and murders for this reason. FOX News has a "NEWS ALERT" about 50 times a day.

As they said in the news blerp I saw the guy said that we should do something about this now. It all goes back to our reliance on foreign oil. We need to drill here, now!

[alwaysxj]

[cherok]

Our gas stations are more tax offices and and also candy stores.

[cantab27]

[Firemanray]

$2.88 here for Exxon. You can by the low MPG junk cheaper. I went through 4 tankfulls in my Silverado last week. Makes you wanna cry.

[Outlaw]

Weel aint this some funny stuff... this morning around 10am I put $20 in the xj and it was $2.999 basically 3 bucks... at 2:00pm I went to work and put gas in my van and the same gas station it was $3.079 buncha crap I say... the price per barell didnt go up in 4 hours... its the damn gas station owners paying for their kids college funds or their wife new boobs!

[bwh0069]

Our gas in eastern nc is 3.05 for regular.

[gary63]

just went up here to 3.25 for Reg. and it goes up .02 about every 1 1/2 weeks. Can some one ship me some.

[Thomass]

American fuel prices, compared to European prices are low and acceptable.

For those who think de fuel prices in the US of A ar high, look at the European

Click here and be astonished (http://www.brandstofprijzen.info/brandstofprijzen-europa.php?sort=3)

the prices are in € ( $1 = 75 euro cent)

correction.... I just looked at the receipt and it was $2.93 for premium..:D

[Natebub]

Fox news does do it 50 times a day I guess cause non of the other networks will talk about it,,,,,,havent seen them mention one word about it.

[Natebub]

Well oil prices are based on our dollar,,,and because Washington is printing money like its going out of style which devalues the dollar,,,,,,,thats one reason its going up,,,,,,,,and then we have the moratorium on drilling that was just the greatest idea ever because of the BP accident which by the way that same well could have been tapped in 600ft. of water instead of the couple thousand they were forced to drill in because nobody likes looking at oil rigs............This is why were paying out the butt for it and will only get worse so get ready!!

[ice_cold]

reg. here is 2.98 and premium is 3.19. what's going on is greed as usual. :( In Alberta Canada regular is now 4.50-5.00 per gallon. talk about ouch.

Actually its closer to 3.78/us gallon.
Currently paying .999/liter.
Thats here in the north/central part of Alberta.

Quebec is the hot spot at $1.26/liter.

[XJ Rat]

Regular at the nearest station (Krogers) is $2.879 per gallon.

[slate_gk]

Highest I've seen since the beginning of the year around Western NY is about $3.30/gal, lowest was around $3.10 or so. I think I paid $3.23 at the pump today.

[tom tom]

3.09 here but some stations have it at 3.19

[XJ408]

3.31 To 3.55 for Reg. over here in Nor Cal..

[default83]

i hear this every year. "gas prices to rise over 5 dollars a gallon" it never happens, but i will say this is the highest ive seen it since IKE and Rita.

i think they all want us to drive electric cars.

the jeep takes around 25-30 to fill up, my truck around 40-50 and the mustang is about the same as the truck. its crazy.

[rugidone]

In nova scotia, we are paying about $4.45

[gary63]

elec. car right now they are a joke to long to charge and to much money
to matane.If everyone had one we would have brown outs or elec. price
would go though the roof. will we all will have cars like the flinstone better get a good per of shoes.:stars:

[XJ4IV]

In Holland we pay $7,91 for a gallon :shocker:

is that USD? whats your currency?

[XJ4IV]

Regular at the nearest station (Krogers) is $2.879 per gallon.

I went there to that SAME kroger yesterday... I used my kroger plus and got a .10 discount per gallon... My family friend has the Kroger card but BOTH of the folks have company cars and their companies pay for their fuel so they never get to use the discount.... Ive used it for the last year and EVERYtime I get the .10 cent discount!!!

[cherok]

Yes that's in US dollar: $7,91 per gallon in Holland
So stop wining over there.:tounge:

We dont get the pay like we did 6 years ago... I was a lead plumber for 20.00 an hour and now im working for less than half...:mad0090: all that hard work to get up the pole and now I'm making what i did when I was in high school...

[Jeepster19]

Gas here in the Lowcountry of S.C. is $2.93 for reg,$3.03 for plus.That is at the local Sunoco here two days ago.It's now over $60 to fill up my Xj!:mad0090:

[alwaysxj]

I fill up my jeep two to three times a week at $50 bucks a pop........ but I drive it to make the money, people got to eat.....
In Logan Utah where I usually fill up it is $3.03 for premium, but the feather south you go in the state the cheaper it gets....

[Natebub]

I dont know who it was who said stop whining,,,,,,but I will continue to complain about gas prices. It ridiculous,,,,,,its crazy that your paying 7 bucks! You should be ticked off about it. I drive 60 miles a day to work and home, it adds up! And we have to drive it cause thats the only way to get to work! Its silly we pay this when we have resources here right off our coasts that could bring prices down and were not using them to make it easier on people. But thats what you get when environMENTALism has gone crazy in the world! People need to wake up. Just sayin.

Sorry whining is American. We whine first then we do. Let's see who comes up that makes gasoline obsolete. :rotfl2: :pee:

Shit... I'd say we all get a deisel and convert our jeep to run on cooking oil and drive around smelling like french fries...:smiley-laughing021:

Filled up today at Kroger. With my .10 shopping discount, paid $2.78 per gallon.

Don't know where prices will go with obama at the helm and big crisis in the middle east.

[OrangeXJ]

No dout it will only go up

[LizardRunner]

I'm checking into making Da Lizard run on ethanol, like dragsters used to. I can make that myself.
All countries pay the same price for oil if it comes from the arab nations. All of Europe is more dependent on arab oil than the US or Canada, so they pay more for the refined products. Japan is probably the highest per gal or litre, heck a golf ball there is over 5 dollars.

[Mudderoy]

I heard on the news, that the price of a barrel of oil is on it's way back down.

[Niac]

Gas in Canton Ohio has been jumping between $2.95 - $3.15 for reg. for a couple of weeks.
The price of gas is set more by the Commodities Market than any thing else. War in Iraq price goes up. Unrest in Egypt price goes up. Because there might be a shortage. Just might. Golf oil spill, price goes down because no one wanted to be associated with oil. Bad P.R.

It's all high dollar gambling.

[Mudderoy]

I filled up yesterday for 2.869

[Punisher]

I filled up yesterday on $3.07 and it cost 47.00... ouch!

[4x4Dalton]

Its $2.92 a gallon here.

[Punisher]

Well since it been a bit since we all talked on here but as of today gas is up to $3.89 a gallon and still climbing by the day.....:banghead:

[rguignard]

3.69 today

[MaxxTraxx]

3.76 at my local tom thumb after my .3c off.....this sucks.

[Firemanray]

Well diesel has finally hit $4.00 per gallon. I'm now running about $300.00 a week in fuel!!! ( just for my pickups)

[hookedonxjs]

We're payin $4.02 for reg and on tv I saw it for $4.99 in LA. There should be a sign on the pump that sez "lube nozzel so it don't hurt so bad goin in"

[JENSSEN]

Last fill was $1.18/L about .30 cents per L up since last fall

[BrianXJ]

Read it and weep guys.

yesterday I paid 3.699 today it will go up again. Dang greedy b_tards think they should raise the price just cause some idiots in the middle east are fighting each other and here in the us we don't even buy oil from them. I am getting more and more serious about converting to alcohol for my fuel.

[Niac]

$4.15 in Canton Ohio

[XJ Rat]

Just filled up for $3.50 a gallon. Never thought I would be happy paying $3.50 per gallon.

Before anyone gets excited. Normal price is $3.80 per gallon. I got 30 cents off a gallon because of grocery purchases.

For what it cost to fill up old whitey it seems like they have a 30 gallon tank. Also I think they slowed the pumps down to make it seem like your getting more petrol. In hot climates it's better to fill up either early in morning or late evening because gas expands with heat.

Good info thanks. But I dont think my tank is that big. I will have to figure it out.

Mine is a 20 gallon, but 18.xx is the most I can get in it.

[xj4life2]

Gas here ranges from $4.09 to $4.19 for regular and is actually cheaper up on the hill than here in the city. In the more remote mountian areas its $5.00+. Somebody needs to stop this crap ASAP. The sad fact of it is , it doesn't cost that much to make and when it comes to deisel and antifreeze they are by products of refineing gas so why are they so high?

[LizardRunner]

here in my area regular is now 3.78 and premium for my bike and boat is at 4.11. Gas seems to always go crazy just because the refiners can charge what ever they decide to charge with no consequences from government. As far as refining goes. the tower puts off (from bottom to top) tars and gunks, diesel #3 diesel #2 diesel #1, Gasoline then the lighter than gas hydrocarbons. Ethelene glycol is a seperate chemical plant all together but uses some of those lighter than gas hydrocarbons in the synthisis process. At least that's the way my memory of the chemistry spits it back to me.

[hookedonxjs]

As much road tax as we pay we should have the best hiways on earth but the bastards have been robbing it to pay for social programs that just make's people more dependent of our welfare state! 61% of leagal and illeagal aliens in our state receive some sort of handout! 74% of all from mexico, elsalvador and ghttp://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z363/brian_mcdonald1/S4020326.jpguatamala on some kind of assistance!

Your just about correct however the Ethelene glycol is a waste product created in the cooling process and the in the hydrocracker.(Dad was a chemist for ARCO for 30+ years )

Looks like the middle east version of competition hill out at Glamis.

[Mudderoy]

Crude-oil futures settled below $100 a barrel Wednesday, and gasoline plunged nearly eight percent, after the New York Mercantile Exchange briefly halted trading and raised daily trading limits for certain energy contracts.

Crude for June delivery declined $5.67, or 5.5 percent, to settle at $98.21 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after dipping as low as $97.50.

“Lots of eyes were focused on any slight jump in [US] fuel inventories. They got it and assumed the bull’s kaput,” said Richard Hastings, a macro strategist at Global Hunter Securities. “The resulting move in price was big enough to get the CME to halt trading, which only worsens the extreme views.”

CME Group, which owns the New York Mercantile Exchange, briefly halted trading in oil, heating-oil and gasoline futures after the June gasoline contract hit its daily price limit. CME also boosted daily price limits for crude oil to $20 and for heating oil and gasoline to $0.50.

“A short trading halt only occurs when there is high volatility in the price to give the market a little breathing space,” said James Williams, an economist at WTRG Economics.

Gasoline futures fell 7.6 percent, with June gasoline losing 26 cents to finish at $3.12 a gallon, after dropping by as much as nine percent to $3.077.

Some traders expect flooding along the Mississippi River to affect refineries in Louisiana.

If your in the West Houston area........Hwy 6 and Old Richmond Road in Sugar Land, there is a Chevron station selling gas for $3.54 per gallon. I filled up there.

Only catch is you have to pay cash. No debit card, no check, no credit card.

[OverEasy]

I filled the little and big Samurai's and the Jeep up today for $3.43. That's the cheapest it's been near me for a long time.

[XJ Rat]

$3.49 a gallon at Chevron just North of 59 on Crabb River Road.

No gimmick here. Bucees is right across the street. $3.59 a gallon there, and it is $3.39 if you also get a car wash.

[Melissa]

Heppner, Oregon right now is $3.97 for regular, $4.09 for mid grade, $4.19 for Super, and my Dodge is costing $4.39 a gallon for Diesel.....................I pucker every time I have to fill my Diesel

No sign's of it going down, been these prices for the last 4 months

[BigJeepBigJeep]

I noticed diesel was 2 cents cheaper here than gasoline the other day... been along time since I saw that.

Gas in Utah is getting out of control. I filled the jeep up and it was $70 bucks good hell.
