This is getting ridiculous!!

lucky bastard... my 91 is about $3.80 these days.

x2 no point in complaining until you live in the Bay Area. Or try Ireland, where I am from. $9/gallon there. That is why we ALL drive diesels in Europe. :wink:

One positive aspect of increasing gas prices is that all those poxy SUV's slow the eff down on the freeway. See, a good thing happened. :biggrin:

To all married men on the forum, now is the time to talk the wife into the motorcycle that you wanna get...Remember, it's a financially smart move for the future.

 

[dustinwark]

Uh, were you alive when gas was over 4 bucks a gallon like...a year and a half ago?

x2

 

[RevoGLI]

IMO things like gas and groceries I never really bitch about. I consider these things to be necessary.

I think it was the summer of 2008 where it hit $4 here.

How's gas prices in Europe and Australia for you guys out there? I'm sure that'll make everyone in the US stop complaining.

i dont know about Europe, but i know HK's gas prices yesterday was $11.36/gallon USD for 91octane :yikes: (verified by my dad)

wow gas prices just went up 10cents/litre today since yesterday... it is now 124.7 cents/litre of 89 octane..... 91 would be 131.7... :yikes:! which is almost 5 dollars/gallon US!!!

So how long until the working poor can no longer afford to drive and those just above them stop going places? Demand will eventually fall sharply, and with it the speculation that is driving the price increases.

Yup... even better would be if we would stop letting the world's economy be driven by fomenting, manipulating speculators. If I ever meet someone and they tell me that's what they do for a living, I will immediately kick them in the groin.

Between mine and my wife's car we put about 100mi/day between them, mostly on hers. $5/gal is gonna suuuuuuck. I'm gonna have to start working from home more this summer.

That's nothing. I personally do 120mi/day since my job moved on me. Fortunately I work from home 2 days/week and only wind up buying gas 2x every 3 weeks or so.

Still, can't wait for the $60 fillups in the JSW. Wahoo.

I hear ya, they have too many ways to earn their riches off the backs of the working class.
