Gas prices headed down..

[MadMudder]

I had a big topic on gas prices but I cant find it. Anyway noticed that gas is down to like 2.60 a gallon on my exit. But diesel is still almost 3 bucks. But I heard that its supposeted to be 2dollars by thanksgiving. Dont know about that but just wanted to know if everybody is having the same luck.

sweet! my tundra gets kinda bad gas mileage. i cant wait.

[gery350]

just read they found a large amount of fuel deep in the gulf which is supposed to suBstantially increase our reserves.
i doubt it will affect prices though.

COMMIE BASTARDS!

[Alba450]

THank GOD that Gas is Going down!  But are "NORMAL" price per gallon is like $1.75....But if It will be $2 I'll be Happy

It costs $65 to fill up my Lightning!!!  I get 12.5 mpg cruising!!! 

*But if you drive like Ralph Schumacher i'll luckyly get 9 mpg!!!

[americanhighlander]

I guess Ga will be best deal when it drops this winter..

[UncleRico]

I heard that about the FIELD they found in the Gulf. I hear it's DEEP. So, hopefully, that'll take a bit of the bite out of prices at the pump.

I'm still considering trading in my Diamond Encrusted Stretch Hummer for a more economical model....maybe just a regular H1 sand diamonds.

I wish they'd come up with one that runs on Baby Harp Seals...that would be kind of cool. I think chicks would dig it.

[AmericanRobster]

I have that 350 Chevy V8, every little bit will help.

last I saw, the NYMEX exchange had gas for october delivery at $1.67 per gallon.  add a mark up for gas station profit and taxes and we should be around $2.29 by the middle to end of october.  Diesel was at 1.93 per gallon and add mark up and taxes.  By the way, a lot of our diesel is shipped overseas as they use more diesel than us and in return, they ship us a lot of gas....fyi

[americanhighlander]

I took, a day off today and went to valdosta Ga
and i saw gas prices over by mall and lowest i have seen was 2.24$ at sams club
and some of prices i seen from 2.29$-2.35$ in south Ga thats for unleaded gas prices.

Wait untill in 2 or 3 months then gas will start to drop,This good news for durham P. riders out there
doing there weekend trips up there!!! 

[k.p.]

on the news this mornin i saw that the oil feild would take about three years to tap into. its reaaaaaaally far down there. im not sure if that was right or not then again it was 6 in the mornin so i was still half asleep

[RAD 450r]

Yeah ive heard that too, Second biggest oil find for north america since they discovered oil in Alaska.  But the info about gas going down to two dollars around thanksgiving was realeased b4 they found this field

[snowmanzz13]

i just came back from ohio and gas prices were sitting at around $2.40 ish, but disel was still at $3, now hopefully someone can explain why, disel being the cheaper made fuel, cost so much more then regular gas?

[garym]

we are in a global economy and a lot of our diesel is shipped overseas where they can make more money from it.

[xr100racer]

yea, great for my atv but im paying 3.10 for diesel in my truck. what the hell, diesel's cheaper to refine but right now its 40 cents more than regular. can someone explain?

[MadMudder]

It takes more oil to make a gallon of diesel than it does to make a gallon of gasoline. So even though it costs less to refine, it uses more oil. Anyway the field is 270 miles south of New Orleans and its 30,000 miles below the sea floor. The technology or the ability to reach it wont be ready for atleast 10 years but we could get almost 12billion barrles of gas from it. If you think about it, were gonna need 30,000 miles of lava proof pipe to get to the reserve. I say lava proof because the crust of the earth is only 25 miles thick. After that, its all lava untill you get to the outer core. So thats also a problem. So if all goes well, by 2016 or so we should get access to it.

[xr100racer]

30,000 miles..hmm, seems a little far. they should make sure the pipe is china proof too

[UncleRico]

If that's the truth, why aren't they shipping the gas to belgium and other countries in Europe, they pay the equivalent of 6.00 a gallon USD in Belgium.

The economics of the situation make no sense. BP finds a damaged pipeline that will be shut down for a good 3 months in Alaska, the situation in Iraq is so unstable that people can't move through the streets freely, let alone maintain a working oil production sytem and the price of oil is falling?

It makes no sense.

Sometimes I wonder if they just BS us on the news to keep us from rioting in the streets.

Of course they BS us man....Havent you seen the crap on the news about all this OIL crap.....Come on dude they just want us to shut up so that the BIG OIL companies can get some $$$$......We got to get up & Protest...But wait we CAN'T!!  We need to get a PERMIT but will they give us a PERMIT...I dont think they will.  So ya America America.......

Havent you seen the beack of your $1 Dollar BILL lately cuz on the Top Left were the eagle is.....Their is a JEWISH star.....Guess whos running are country?

Eagles?

No wait..I want to use my "phone a friend" or 50/50.

[MadMudder]

Somehow I dont think Jews are running the country. So if thats what you ment then allot of crap is heading your way. Anyway the earth is like a million or so miles thick. So 30,000 is nothing. I know its hard to imagine it but its true. So rico, you better trade your diamoned incrusted hummer on a lincon with hydraulics or something like that..

[Fox17]

30,000 miles..hmm, seems a little far. they should make sure the pipe is china proof too

i dont think the earth is much more than 30,000 miles through it.   it would be easer for china or whoever is on th eother side to get it. o well. i think it is a bunch of crap.

[Fox17]

i think it only takes like 52,000 miles to travel round the world.

[MadMudder]

Yea, my bad.. I looked it up and found out that the inner core of the earth is only like 3100 miles away. So my local news has to be seriously wrong. Hope so cause were gonna need a china proof pipe..

[garym]

the reason the costs of fuel is more overseas is due to taxes.  they tax the hell out of fuel over there...

[Silverstar]

They probably meant 31,000 FEET deep. 31,000 miles would be poking out the other side of the earth. Gas prices going down is DEFINATELY good news for my buddy with his Brute Force 750!! That thing drinks gas like no tomorrow!
