Gas Prices!
 

Is it me or are the gas prices jumping 2-3 cents a day now? I just filled up on Sunday and the price was $1.91, today it was $1.97....:af:

What grade? Paid 1.73 for regular yesterday, in Eastham.

Gas prices in Brockton are at around 1.87 and they're hurting me where it hurts the most, in my wallet!

and because of gas prices
 

everything in the country that gets delivered will go up!! :af: :af: :af:

I wonder how high they are going to get, it's only the first week of May and we are about to break $2.00 a gallon for 87-octane. Sure makes my wife's 40-mpg Corolla look awfully tempting...LOL

I paid 2.23 at the street pump fopr 87 octane 3 days ago. But I have no place to drive to so a fill up lasts me 6 weeks. I bet we see 3 bucks at the dockside pump this summer.

$$$$$$$$
 

I think it was the wrong time to by a Suburban 40 gal tank $75/tank. I should have milked another year out of the Jetta.:( :( :(

$1.91 for 87 at the local station. Some higher, this sucks...

this does suck:( Keep your cars propery tuned up and watch your tire pressure!!!

I'm glad I didn't trade in my 1994 GMC Jimmy for a fullsize blazer, that woulda hurt me bad in da pocket...

The old infamous Blue Volvo.....30 MPG.....:p

Stop and Shop went from $1.75 last week to $1.85 today....:eek:

I did see $1.69 in Middleboro earlier today, and there's a place in Norwood that is $1.65..........at least it was two days ago.......

Short of that........Shop the places that have "X" cents off on this day and that.......

.

wait to you hit the marina ouucccccchhhhhhhhhhhh!:eek:

.

they will be going up next week
the cost at the tanks is way up

$1.89 all over the place here today!! 30 gal tank in my Blazer and I get 14 to 15 mpg.
Just added another 25 gal gas tank to the boat!! :eek: Now its going to cost me!!

I saw $2.07 here in Wakefield RI this morning, however another station had it for $1.93 these are 87 octane prives :(

2.08 in Cumberland what the heck is going on? Every week it is rising anywhere from .05 to .10 cents.

....and yet I don't see a HUGE outcry in the press over this issue.....could it be becuase both Bush and Cheney are old oil money guys.....?? :-(

How come no one is screaming from the highest mountain to get the gov't to step in here and curb these darn prices...??

I don't think Bush has anything to do with the rising fuel costs, it would be political suicide. All the instability in the world are all contributing factors. The Middle East seems to be a ticking time bomb unable to shake their extreme Muslim terrorist factions. Venezuela has been in political chaos and near Civil War for months now. The above coupled with the increase in demand worldwide is causing the market price to rise per barrel. After that happens it is a trickle down effect to you and me . The one thing that the States and Feds could do is to ease up on the taxes a bit.

IT IS TIME TO DRILL IN ALASKA!!! THIS IS OUTTA CONTROL

My little 3.0
 

is looking good for this summer.

diesel fuel ;{
 

Well guys as some of you know , I am driving a road truck.
(big sleeper, fridge, microwav oven and the like.)
Fuel prices have gone from an av 1.45 to 1.69...if you do the math , with my truck holding 300 gals you get an idea what I pay for a fill up.. truck gets 6 to 7 MPG 65 mph loaded light
(20000lbs of freight) to 75MPH loaded heavy (45000lbs of freight).

I am now charging a fuel surcharge for loads comming up home as the fuel cost is higher and I got to replace what I have burned up getting here..

I need another type of work. Gone to much cost to much
and I have fished two times this year. One time on the Gulf Coast (mobile AL, and South Jursy). damn just got a call, gota go.....

It's time for massive amounts of money to develop alternative fuels and power systems so we don't need to play cutsie pie with OPEC and the middle east for their oil. Get out from under their thumb...

My guess is that the technologies are already developed....Its now time to incorporate them into the autos.

What ever happened to Hydrogen Fuel Cells, I have been hearing about that one for years? Is this something that is being worked on?

Fuel cells are being worked on and are becoming acceptable products - just still in their early stages...

Even the hybrid drives that are running now are a step in the right direction. A lot of the problems are even battery technology in more conventional approaches to more efficient power plants.

Filled my truck last wednesday for $1.81. Got gas this morning and it was $1.99. This bites....:af:

Maybe its me but shouldn*t we be buying Iraq oil now that we dont have an embargo on it to help rebuild the country instead of just giving them the money????

Unfortunately because of the delicate nature of the situation we can't touch a drop of their oil until there government is in place. If we do it will look like we invaded their country for their oil.

Hopefully there will be a nice price break in the future for us on iraqi oil.....but you never know
