$2.40 in Boise the other day. A few years ago everybody freaked out when the national average went over $2, now it feels like a bargain.
So does anyone think the oil era is winding down right now, and things are just going to get a hell of lot worse until the alternatives become feasible and widespread? Or is this just temporary? |

Having the price be even $4.00 a gallon will not 'wind down' the oil era. It'll be a crunch for some people (ie, those owning SUVs especially), but people will deal, buy more hybrids or smaller Japanese cars. I doubt the national average will get below $2.00 anytime soon.. unless someone invents an oil replicator .

20 miles away, it was about a dime cheaper than that, at least as of Monday.

$2.899 in C-town. Just wait until Memorial weekend - I bet we'll get close to $4.00 a gallon by the end of the summer

Not until it makes fiscal sense. Everyone knows the answer is ethanol and it's resulting 20-50% hit on gas mileage

Suburban Cook County (Chicago-area), and mostly I'm seeing right around $3.00 on the dot for regular.
I filled up my 1993 Mazda (still 32 mpg!) next to a Hummer H2 filling up with premium the other day. He looked angry. |

If gas goes up to $4/gal (as I stated in the post: "Having the price be even $4.00 a gallon will not 'wind down' the oil era") it will.

People will bitch about $4/gal gasoline but they will not change their behavior much.

I don't have the foggiest. When my tank is empty, I go to a gas station and fill it up. the price per gallon is rather insignificant to me. it's not like I'm going to say "nope, too high this week. I'll pass".

dola (maybe):
I also couldn't tell you how much a gallon of milk or a loaf of bread is, even though my wife and I do the weekly shopping together. I couldn't even guess, really. it's one of those questions celebrities get asked to see how out of touch with the real world they might be, but I'd get it wrong too.

That's because you're the biggest celebrity in Keene, N.H. I filled up for $2.95 a gallon a few days ago. Saw it was up to $3.09 at one of the more expensive stations in Old Town Alexandria this morning.

I wouldnt be suprised if we hit 4 dollars soon, at this rate. It would be nice if the price would settle down, however. I was paying around 2 bucks about 2 months ago, now it's 3. I hate that the price is starting to pinch my budget slightly in other areas. But it's also due to me not making as much money as most do, I'm sure. It starts to get shitty when you realize it now costs you maybe 4-5 bucks to drive to the store and back. I really need to trade into a smaller car, but it's not realistic at this point.
And this is another note, but I'm seeing that I've been getting even less mileage(2-4 less mpg) over the last several months than I'm used to getting. Probably could just be attributed to having an older car, although it sort of coincides with that massive price upswing around Katrina. |

Make sure your tires are inflated at the right pressure. You'd be amazed at how much that can affect your mileage. |

As of yesterday morning, we are at $4 a gallon. And before you say it's canadian dollars, it is not. The current price at the pump is 1.224cdn per liter, with an exchange rate at 1.15 and 3.78 liters per gallon, this comes roughly to 4.02us per gallon... FM
