Thanks Rick.  When gas goes down, we will think its a bargain.  That's  like the  "boiling a frog story".

Gas hit 4.00 for reg. here.  And some stations are going over 4 bucks.
Diesel is 4.80.

The price per barrel went DOWN to $128.00 a few days ago.
 
The price at the pump has not gone down.
 
Will it?   Souldn't it?

You are sure right Brian....we are real lucky compared to you guys in the UK.  That why all you see over their is small cars, and its been that way for years.  Thanks for "chiming in" and welcome to C3VR.

Well, things are getting a little better now-a-days.  I just paid $3.16/gal for regular.  Even with all the bailout stuff going on, the price of oil and gas is getting a little better.   Doubt it will get below $3. tho.  Hope its doing better for the rest of ya'll.    Thumbs%20Up

[QUOTE=aceinthehole]Not gettin' much better out here, ....the dirty b@#$*&+^s.Ouch[/QUOTE] Jimmy, tell us how you really feel about your gas prices. As for here, today (9/27/08) they actually lowered the price as I was waiting for a light to change. The price went from $3.59 to $3.55.........so it's getting a little better here. I know out in Calif. that you guys get stuck with higher prices..........who knows why?

I filled up my truck this morning for.... (drum roll please)...  $1.99 a gallon!!!
 
Like many of you, I never thought I would live to see gas under $3 a gallon again.  Wow.  I can hardly believe it's now under $2.
 
If it keeps dropping like this, I might even be able to fill the Vette for under $2/gal for premium!!
