How far do think the $ of a gallon of gas will drop today?

I filled the tank from empty in the CC last week when it was going up so for once, it will probably drop fast. I made it rain by washing the truck yesterday as well.

They are talking about a price increase in NJ for this weekend! WTF! Apparently it takes weeks to see the price drop and a day to see it rise!

oil is now at $100. that should equate to gas dropping .50 cents from the levels we now see at the pumps. wonder when that will happen.

all we have to do is raise margin requirements on oil futures trading and we'd stop all this BS.

What I keep hearing as the reason/excuse for sustained higher gas prices is a lack of "refinery capacity."

It was short lived. Stocks are up today due to growth in the job market, so gold and oil are already up as well. That's just Great!
