Default Whats up with gas prices lately?

I just drove past the pumps and they're up to "tree fiddy" ($3.50)again. it seems like just last week they were 2.70/gallon.

The summer blend cant be a whole dollar a gallon more expensive! This doesnt bode well for the high demand season this year.

Even Kerosene is up. I paid $4.09 a gallon the other day. Never paid that much ever before. Seems like it was .99 not that long ago.

I'm paying about 3.79 here in Portland for diesel. Gas is a bit less.

Default Re: Whats up with gas prices lately?

Yeah, it's getting so I put $20.00 in the tank now on a cheap run. I used to put $5.00. It's insane. No wonder the economy is in the dumper. No one can afford to drive to work and back!

I just hate to throw money in the tank when I could use it for something else.

Our current leadership has no problem with over $5-6 bucks a gallon like overseas, so plan on $5 pretty soon.

Prices will remain high under the present administration since this is the new "Obama brand gasoline"! Specially formulated by "Eco Marxists" for the fantasy world of green energy!
