I filled up. I'm so happy.

Anyone think we'll see sub-$2/gallon again?

Shagster · Post by **Shagster** » Fri Sep 01, 2006 11:49 pm

After 2008, maybe

In 2008, $3 may be the new "low."

Certainly not over here.

Caltex here has changed the pricing roll on their signs at all sites to show a top price of $1.99 per litre.
We are paying the World Parity price for fuel and a bucketload of Fed Tax on top.

I think if the Fed leaves the interest rate alone and nothing else happens in the world, no hurricans hit the US Gulf area the rest of the year we might see it dip to 2$even in a few places... but thats a BIG IF.

$2.09 a litre in UK

mountainman · Post by **mountainman** » Sat Sep 02, 2006 11:56 am

Either way... not planning on it.

It was nice to see it drop a little for awhile. A little relief to some I know that are scraping by with gas money to work.

Yup, I converted to $ as I know most of you guys are American.

Today petrol was: $1.73 (£0.91) a litre

And you guys get 3.7 litres for $2.39

Damn, that's like £0.30 (UK) a litre for you guys. Thats bloody cheap.

Your country is smaller.

Craig321 · Post by **Craig321** » Sat Sep 02, 2006 9:42 pm

True, but are petrol prices are a bit OTT compared to yours.

They made me an offer I couldn't refuse...

0% interest & A-Plan, saved me a ton of $$$.

NICE RIDE

I had a lease on the last one and didn't care for it...this one was a purchase with no limitations...

SO FAR...

I see US found a big oil area in Mexico a few days ago. I guess your prices will be dropping slightly again

Ummm.........not as long as it's tied to supply and demand and none of the oil companies build new refineries.

Craig321 · Post by **Craig321** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 10:15 pm

True, I don't know much about oil so I'm not sure

mountainman · Post by **mountainman** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 10:27 pm

It was $2.31 for regular yesterday, I believe...

That supply wouldn't last more than 5 years anyways, so the cost to get that oil isn't worth it.............unless oil goes up to $100 a barrel, then they may go for it LOL, till then, that oil is staying right where it is.

I got lucky last week and found a faulty pump. Was given out gas without having to put your credit card in the slot

Going back tomorrow to see if the pump's still faulty and fill up the gas guzzler. Hopefully, no do-gooder sissy pants has reported it defective yet

Yes...because it's still 1948, and there aren't fourteen cameras installed at your average gas station...

Yeah, sure they'll get suspicious when they see a huge line form for 1 pump and the other 9 pumps are left free

$2.34 today and going down!!!

Shagster · Post by **Shagster** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 11:56 pm

I found one of those faulty pumps in Atlanta. I put my card in and the screen was going all funky, but it let me select the grade and fill up my car.

mountainman · Post by **mountainman** » Sun Sep 17, 2006 3:44 pm
