I saw fuel going for.....
 
I saw fuel in Penryn,CA which is east of Sacramento about 25 miles on 80 going for $4.19 today! It's insane. I bought fuel for my pickup at $3.89 and thought I was getting deal... Times have changed that's for sure. I feel for all you guys that have to pay for your own fuel... ouch.

Traverse City, prices just jumped to an average of $3.35/gal. reg.
and $3.99/gal. diesel.

http://www.michigangasprices.com/ind...y&dl=Y&intro=Y

Price for regular gas last week was $3.05.

I heard oil/barrel predictions are to reach $200, before this is over.
Oil per barrel was $30-some just 7 years ago under Clinton.

It is all politically motivated.
Shocking to think a couple oilmen in the highest office of the land had anything to do with skyrocketing profits in oil companies. :roll: :lol:

gas prices around the world... http://money.cnn.com/pf/features/lis...ces/price.html

Venezuela, gas is up a whopping 2 cents...now up to 14 cents a gallon.
I wonder if Iraqis are still paying 5 cents per gallon?
Thanks to American's!...Hey...by the way...where is all that return on our investments we were promised???

Georgie Bush just made a comment recently when asked about gas prices at the pump expected to be $4.00/gal by Spring
....and his lame comment was one of shock and bewilderment... "What? I never heard of that.." :lol:

Now that is one sorry lying SOB.

Oh you guys have it so easy.... 3.89/gallon??? I WISH!!!

Last fill up cost me nearly $1000!!!! In the far north we are paying $1.27/litre, which is... $4.92/gallon!!! Good grief!

makes me glad i sold my car. it was a toyota supra, but still, fuel prices are insane. if i still had it, the insurance on top of it would have driven me to sell it anyway. in a few more months, i'll finally be able to get that insurance discount for no longer being under the age of 25.

i've seen and smelled some bio-diesel trucks at truck stops before. one was backed in next to me at the flying j in tooele, utah. it smelled like french fries being cooked/baked/broiled/whatever in the cooking oil. another time was in late september when i was at the flying j in north platte, nebraska.
