    Whewww....

    Lucky for me and you warrior, we don't have cars, we're so broke.

    We can laugh at all the suckers that drive around in their silly cars.


    You remember the good old days warrior, when we'd be betting 5K a game and driving cool Kia's?



    GFY.

    When it was around $4/gal last summer, the blame was flying fast....cue up the "This is Obama's Katrina" threads when gas once again climbs on cue this summer

    GREAT NEWS!!!

    I will probably be in the market looking for a new GMC Yukon this summer. Up in the north midwest, the best time to buy a gas gussler is in the summer with zero snow and when gas prices are the highest.

    Dealerships arent selling any and they love to get them off the lots so they can put more "green cars" on the lots.

    Really? Its an election year, if it doesnt drop below 2 bucks I will be surprised. Remember in 08 when it was like 125 everywhere? I think we had cheap stuff in Cal under 120.

    There are few constants in this country but the ones you can trust. In presidential election years gas prices drop and the stock market goes through the roof.

    Gas less than 2 bucks, stock market teasing 15K By Sept.

    Notice how it has steadily been inching down the past 5 or 6 months. Probably spikes up a little bit for a massive cash grab (like they did in 2008) then the bottom drops out again for a few months.

    Stock manipulation and gas price fixing are the two easiest and most profitable scams put on the general public. But since everyone needs gas for the most part what can we do about it?

    Bigday, I thought a Yukon in S.D would be considered a green car. Anything newer than a 2000 is considered green friendly.

    If gas hits $5, the Obamas had better start packing for the movers.

    Why is gas in California always the highest?
    California produces so much for the country and then gets punched in the pie whole when it comes to gas. Total BS

    This has something to do with it.
