Diesel used to be cheaper, and rightfully so, its LESS refined.

And mid grade and premium used to go up in 10 cent incriments...

Id pass out. Problem is...oil is now UNDER 90 bucks a barrell, so that means that gas SHOULD be in the mid to high 2's. And for anyone thats gunna tell me "it takes time" suck on my ass, if oil jumps 5 bucks tomorrow, gas will shoot right back to 3.2x by the time I leave work.

Be careful, I think there is a standing rule about members being banned for posting pictures of Prince. Consider this a warning.

That would be good and all except the reason diesel is more now is because it is now more refined. The price went up when they put low sulfer act in affect.

"Game Blouses"



The WSJ keeps blabbin on about the about the huge demand china has for oil being a large contributor to the reason why a dropping barrel price is not being reflected into lower gas prices at the pump. Also throw in the fact that the Saudis can simply slow production to try and stabilize their dropping barrel price. Basic supply and demand

2.97 and dropping by me

i remember gas, reg at 0.95, and on special days, 3 cents off, so $0.92 a gallon.
super was like $0.99 the lowest i remember while already driving.

back when i had my 88 GTA i could fill up my tank AND buy dinner for myself that night with $20....

Savage_Messiah
10-07-2008, 05:29 PM

when i first started driving i think gas was around $1.30 something? cost me about 20 bucks to fill my tank...around 15 gallons. gah i miss those days...i remember complaining about $2.00 a gallon!!!

maroman88

$15 used to fill my 72 Cutlas when I started driving back in '87. And yes I was probably wearing acid washed jeans filling it up.

Funny how people complained when post Katrina gas surged to almost $3, now 2 years later $3 seems like a good deal.

$3 doesnt sound like a good deal at all who ever thinks that has issues or must be rich

i don't remember the exact numbers, but someone did a comparison of the price of gas as related to the price of oil. it works out to be more expensive this year for that same gallon of gas, even though oil is lower this year. go figure... :rolleyes:

yeah but 5$ = 3.66 EURO

May of this year 1 (one) Euro was .63 USD (cents)

Now it is above .74 USD (cents)

In 2004 1 (one) Euro was almost the same amount as the USD at about .90 cents

The actual price of the USD has dropped a lot in the last 4 years.

2.84 at a few stations in Jersey City! woot! still way too expensive....

Gas is more expensive in other countries like GB because they pay more tax on it than we do. California is always expensive because they have crazy taxes on their gas.

2.79 in pitman for regular.

super FINALLY dropped down... was 3.23 today, finally deiced to fill up on it.

I also read barrels of oil are $77. Shouldn't gas be cheaper if barrels are that low? Still seems kind of expensive since in July a barrel of oil was $140 and regular than was 3.70ish

JerzyIroc
10-10-2008, 03:30 PM
gas never should have shot up to over 3.00 even when it was 200 a barrel. it takes 1 1/2 to 2 years to refine crude oil to gas. therefor gas prices should take at least a year to be affected by the price of a barrel. its the speculators that are ruining everything. when gas shot up to 200 a barrel, the gas we were using was from crude oil that was still only 60ish a barrel. thats how they made those insane profits. 4% profit margin my balls.
