Anyone Else Noticing Gas Prices Dropping?
 

its dropped from $3.60 down to $2.90 here in parts of tennessee where i am in just 3-4 days...im enjoying the drop so far but i really doubt it will stay this way.

I was in south texas this weekend and willed up my suv for 2.54.. I LOVE this crisis.

well its not that low...but i guess it will get there...ya i know what your talkin about i drive a tahoe and i love seein it not cost $100 to fill up...:thumbsup:thumbsup

Yes, it's called the last ditch efforts of the republicans trying to prove they have some control on the economy so you'll vote for their party. Shit like this always happens a few weeks before an election. Don't be fooled.

I filled up the other day for $2.81 per.

idont even know who im votin for...either way cant really complain about the gas dropping..but i see your point

The weakening demand, global recession, and stock market "crash" have nothing to do with it?

Yep was up to 1.45 and now it's 1.12 per liter

if it can stay this way..it would be nice

Unless traders decide to stage another phony bubble, oil should stay low. The arguments about demand were always bogus. Some people are saying even at these low levels oil is still too high which sounds right. It should be at around 60-70 a barrel.

shit

not happening out here. still almost where it was. maybe 12 cents less.

they fuck californianz good.

have its dropping

totally agree...we will see here soon if it keeps dropping...i think $2 a gallon would be good enough..only if it never went above

i think it will start dropping soon:thumbsup

gas is $1.19 here.. i dont know why its so low...

The price was high, partially, because of the weak dollar.

Now that currency and economy's around the world are crashing and catching up to the dollar. The price comes down. Same for food, and other commodities. If you have not noticed in the past few weeks.

Start.

I saw gas for 2.79 today in GA.

But Diesel is still 4 something.

Everyone laughs at that but that's part of the reason everything costs more. All of you need diesel fuel in one way or another and you all pay for it.

But most people don't have a clue.

They keep the price of diesel up because transport companies don't care one bit.

They just pass the cost on. (to you) in higher prices for the goods you buy.

Everything gets trucked in one way or another.

All your groceries in your frig took diesel fuel to make it there for example.

Gasoline for your personal vehicle is just a small insignificant cost. Diesel rules the world.

good point:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Got to love it.

every second of it

isn't it funny how fast the oil companies and government train us consumers to where $1.19 seems psychologically like a really low price :1orglaugh

it wasn't hardly that long ago that thought of the future possibility of gas over a dollar a litre was disturbing :2 cents:

Del Mar, California $3.45 today..... Fuck you very much :thumbsup

I agree with you BV, but the transportation companies get killed by high prices too. My brother runs a trucking company and it puts some serious pressure on him as well as the independent truckers.

gas here is $2.98 and I did buy a gallon of milk for $1.88 today and that is way cheaper than it has been for a long time :thumbsup

ya see thats awesome...:thumbsup:thumbsup

1.466 euro in holland per liter...... who's complaining lol!

it always drops right before an election

i think it is the dollar....i could be wrong though :)

bc, canada gas is at 1.15 / l.

will prolly skyrocket tommorow knowing how things go :/

Just wait till after election.. same thing happened in the last one. Soon as it was over the prices went back up.

jesus.

now republicans are assholes for falling gas prices world wide

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

time to start storing some in my garage LOL

Wont last long enjoy it while you can. The MSM was actually saying "falling gas prices are bad"!

Correct you are young Jedi.

still sitting around 3.20 here.

Many factors.

1. One is that in 2006 the US and Europe adopted ultra low sulfur diesel standards. This has increased the refining cost for diesel.

2. Another is taxes. The Federal tax on diesel is 6 cents higher on diesel than regular gas. Different states tax diesel differently so you might see even wider numbers than here in different states. example: california's diesel taxes are 8 cents higher than on regular gasoline.

3. Worldwide diesel demand has been increasing at a pretty good clip.

Some recent numbers

Regular Gasoline Diesel
Crude Oil: $2.76 $2.76
Refining: $.38 $.60
Distribution/Marketing $.22 $.48
Taxes $.42 $.48
Total: $3.78 $4.30

its been quite nice, i dont rmember the last time i paid only 35$ to fill up my tank :)
