I wish that was all I needed it for.

I wish that was all I needed it for.

Woohoo! That means less $$ for my wife's car and more money for cycling gear. I'm thinking $50 a month makes sense. :p

Don't cheer too much. The extra savings from cheaper gas will be spent on heating oil or natural gas this winter.

Who'd have ever thought you'd be giving a "WooHoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!" for gas at $2.14.

i saw some on the news this mornign that some place in the U.S was selling it for 1.97.. dont remember where thoguh

When I stopped for gas last nite, the station had it for 2.13, and people were parking BETWEEN the pumps waiting for one to open up. I went across the street to the place that had it for 2.14, figured I could spend the extra dime to gas up.

Who wonders how much a mocha latte is by the gallon, decides he's happier not knowing

Cheapest here is still $2.69 or so.

Prices are definitely dropping, but I'm still planning on siphoning the gas out my car (totaled on Monday night when a lady pulled out in front of me) before the insurance company tows it away. I think it's $2.33 at the Shell I pass on the way to work, and I can probably salvage 6 gallons. $14 saved is $14 earned.

We are at $2.04

Correction, my son just told me he saw it at 1.97

Man that's sad when we are happy to pay ONLY $2.14 for a gallon of gas! This is big oil's dream come true. By the way, 87oct in Boise is selling for $2.67/gal.

you poor, poor people. tethered to the system. teach your children now to stay out of cars.
in hawaii it's like $2.39. and people are happy about that.
don't you wonder why the gas went down?

Where the heck you folks living, Turkuk? Gasoline up here is still flowing out of the pumps at 2.67 or so for midgrade.

And gasoline prices will ONLY go higher over the next few decades!!! America REALLY needs light rail and public bus systems!

Cheapest around here (San Francisco) is still $2.5xx/gallon. Prices are still dropping...but I wonder if it'll go below $2/gallon again...

Filled up at $1.89 here in central Indiana yesterday. ($1.99 was the price but I had a $.10/gal coupon.)

it's $2.69 here. and you people got the nerve to complain gas is expensive. :rolleyes:

It's REALLY annoying to see gas dropping but diesel stays stable... at $2.79 vs today's $2.21 gas. Diesel is cheaper to produce for crying out loud!! No wonder the more efficient diesel engine isn't popular.

I'm starting to believe the conspiracy theory. Everytime the gas companies see people starting to think about diesels, gas becomes cheaper than diesel.

LOL!

I don't have to wait a few decades because my 1.4 billion dollar lightrail system is only 8 blocks away. Just relocate next to one and foget looking at gas prices ever again. I haven't looked at gas pump prices in my town in over a year! Seriously.

Agree! Is there some way we could get these systems without politicians putting their best interest first?

In my region politicians took a billion dollars to build a light rail line that wasn't needed. Pure politics as this line got the nodd over building a high speed line to the fastest growing area of the region. The light rail line was so poorly conceived that it will NEVER be self sufficient. Most commuters won't use the line because it is too slow, with too many stops. They say taking the bus is faster. So while the line racks up operating costs that will only increase my taxes, thousands of motorists take an hour plus to crawl the 15 miles from where the high speed line would have gone.

Diesal prices are closely tied to heating oil use because they are refined from similar weight crude content. Since heating oil use is going up steadily due to the season, it's going to be much slower to recover in price from the recent shortage, and it will probably stay a little higher this winter. The gas and diesal comes from the same company, so a conspiracy theory doesn't quite fit. They want to sell all of their product, but if they start running low, they raise the price to protect their inventories. Developing natural gas capacity will help, but a lot of people who ironically describe themselves as "liberal" are strongly against natural gas because some real nutjobs who have no understanding of how combustion works have convinced them that smoking near a natural gas tanker will cause an explosion with a yield similar to that of a nuclear bomb.

Diesel is heating oil with a large extra tax. So, you have to compete with the home heating crowd. My company makes the systems that decide what all the refineries should produce. It's optimization based on product (and feedstock) prices most of which are set by auction. Auctions can go crazy base on speculation. But, only temporarily.

There have been conspiracies however and they usually involve government laws. Ask me about MTBE.
