      and if u take the bus it cost half of ur gas price and 15$ chip and a meal i think.

            analysts were spot on.

            already down to $3.79 from $4.29.

              people will drive twenty miles to save 10 cents a gallon, then bet 200 that night on a hunch!

                I only live 10 miles from work, so I bought a scooter. Kinda nice riding outside with the sun and the breeze. And you can't argue with 90 miles to the gallon.

                    eh not really. It would have to go up a lot more then that to reduce my driving habbits.

                      Guys, the price in the UK just hit £1.40 per LITRE - yes that's right, do the calculations and you'll work out petrol in the UK now has hit roughly $11/12 per gallon!!!

                      Good thing i'm in Uganda where it's only $8 per gallon

                              Many people have reduced their driving due to the high gas prices. Even with the reduced demand prices remain high. Derivatives on gas and oil need to be outlawed and prices will then come down.

                                Yeh it really is speculation that drives it up, but it makes a lot of people a lot of money also

                                        I use PNC Bank, they give you 2points for ever dollar i spend on my DC, and you can buy things from their store with the points, kind of like sbr. I have gotten $125 in free gas cards the last 2 months from them.

                                              no we dont.

                                              we need to buy more fuel efficient vehicles such as civic hybrid (44mpg) and prius (50mpg). that would lessen our dependence by billions of barrels of oil, which means opec could no longer manipulate the market.

                                                Civic hybrid is too pricey for now, but Honda makes a good innovation, hope it can be improved in future.
