Just what we need in the middle of a depression. All of the gas companies having record profits and we poor drivers who need to fill up our tanks to get to work are paying the price. Something needs to be done here.

I was just down in LA. Gas was $1.85.

Gas is back down to $1.99 although we paid $2.09 in Bufflao this week-end. Hopefully the prive will just hang at this prive for a while.

Why didn't we hang out?

how does one just happen to be "down" in New Orleans from the Hill country, that is like a 7 hour drive! And it was Mardi Gras too!

$1.85 in my parts this morning. Subject to change by noon though.

I didn't know where you were. LOL. We were actually at Lancaster High School watching my 6 year old grandson wrestle. He won!!!!!

I know Lancaster well.

While oil supplies are at a 16-year high, gasoline inventories are at a 5-year low. So when demand rises with the summer driving season expect prices at the pump to rise 20-30 cents per gallon.

If you're looking for a villain in this scenario, the refiners fit the bill; they have kept capacity idle in anticipation of the coming demand and hope to profit from the widening "crack spread" - or the difference in price between crude oil and refined products.


(please no comments on the crack spread!)

Well, when everyone has to quit driving again their profits may not be what they are anticipating especially since the economy has worsened since gas was $4/gal.

I just saw that oil is up $4/barrel. How are your gas prices? Ours is up to around $2.05 around here

$2.15 in SE Ohio

around 2.10 - 2.15ish

$1.87 at Sams's Club this morning........

$1.92 in southern NH

$2.19 in NY

$1.99 in Louisiana where I am - might be cheaper where Happy is.

where is the congressional outrage and the administration steps to shut these theives down

just kidding folks, law of supply and demand. $1.89 in south La. today, diesel at $2.15

see Ms. Tigg! it is cheaper a little further south....

Now oil has gone back down a little. Wonder what the price of gas will do.

peak driving season is almost here, it will be rising regardless of the price of a barrel on the open market........

Whem do they switch to the "Summer formula", doesn't gas usually go down then?

I noticed when oil spiked last weekend at $54 prices jumpes at the pump. Here it went from 1.92 to 2.15. Well when it was falling earlier this week, the price of gas didn't follow.

Gas is up to $2.45 in SE Ohio. What is it in your areas?

$2.25 in much of FL for the cheap stuff, but going up steadily.

filled up this morning, it was $2.15

I heard Phoenix was the only market with gas still under $2.00....
