All for lower gas prices , but this isn't going to turn out good , too much geo political , all the low interest loans , bonds that the shale is attached to , the banks and the bets they made with leverage...the current spending bill puts the American taxpayer on the hook again when all this derivative pops
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-1...t-markets.html more on the web if you look around.. we will pay for it one way or another ... It was a fell good moment last week to gas up the Mrs. car for $29 I must say.. but that loaf of bread was up in price and sure seems like the slices shrunk 20%.... |

Why is gas on the water so much more if your getting the same fuel as you are on land ?

It's usually NOT the same.... The land fuel prices being quoted are predominately 87 octane with 10% ethanol blended in, the marine fuel prices are ethanol free and generally 89-90 octane.

if the price of gas is the determining factor in whether or not you can afford to go boating or buy a boat then you can't afford a boat.
Also in the no insurance club so when my drunk ass crashes into you.............you pay. |

then explain why Diesel is $1.00 more at the marina, it should be cheaper there are no road taxes charged on off road Diesel. I mean other than the obvious explanation of because they can.
I was referencing the difference between E10 (land) and real gas (marina). Real gas (90 octane) continues to be about $1.00 more per gallon at the 2 local stations that actually still sell it here. . |

FYI, Perky Pantry on the west side of Tecumseh sells 100% gas, price is usually right between E10 blend and marina gas.

Y'all can hate me. I want oil prices back up to $90 or so a barrel. It's my income. If rather pay more for fuel and be employed. Cheap gas down nothing when unemployment hits. Lol. Not to mention as someone said in a previous post this low barrel price will ultimately have disastrous results on the economy that will be felt by everyone not just oilfield workers.

No. I can still afford it. If it stays low too long it will just start putting a lot of us out of work then no. Lol. You can lol at my economy comment watch what happens to banks if it stays too low too long. A lot of people don't relate how commodities are tied together and how deep the banks are in on this stuff.
