    Wow, Gravity, and I can barely afford $4/gal. I know I would not be able to do about $9.50/gal. I would have to find a job I could walk to then.

    Dynamo1, the RaceTrac I work by is near an industrial park, where I work. Anyway they always have their gas cheaper.

    Dizzney: I know, the prices over here are ridiculous :eek: Luckily I do most of the things by using public transport but when we want to travel or go to friends/family, we use our car and yes, that's quite expensive.

    Well gee isn't it grand that gas prices seem to be staying at around the $4.15 mark here. :rolleyes: Will make for a very expensive drive up north next month. :scream:

    Public transportation is really not even an option where I live.

    I guess I live in a good part of San Diego :lol: Gas by my house is 4.33. Then again I live right by a navy base so that is part of the reason why its cheaper. Other parts of San Diego aren't so lucky :p One area is 4.89! :eek:

    Public transportation is not really an option for me where I live too. The nearest bus stop is a few miles away. :(

    Luckily enough we have a cheaper gas station here just a few minutes away where the price is around 1.55...but still too much money, we pay for a full tank around 75 euros :eek:

    ^Yeah, there's a reason I fill up my tank before going to Holland :p

    Paid yesterday: 49,60 for about 37 liters diesel. That's 1,331 per liter.

    Ok all of you that live in the USA. Love how oil prices are going down and gas prices are going up.

    Come November there will be a referendum that will allow voters to recall elected officials. I don't know what the referendum is called, but look for it.

    This recall will allow voters to recall any elected official we don't think are doing there jobs.

    Why am I telling you this? Because the Senate is voting on whether they should give themselves a raise. Yup, we're all suffering, people are losing their jobs left and right, we pretty much pay for everthing for the senate and they want a raise.

    I say do your job first and get the economy fixed, the gas prices lower and fix the housing industry.

    Know what this raise will mean? HIGHER TAXES for us!!!!!!

    Now here's another thing to chew on. I was watching "Black Gold" on TruTV last night. It's a show that follows three crews drilling for oil in Texas. Now don't get me wrong, these guys work really hard and I'm not complaining about them. What I'm complaining about and mad about is one of these teams hit oil and the owner of this rig will make $50 MILLION DOLLARS IN PROFIT! Yup, $50 million, but lets keep raising the gas prices. :rolleyes:

    Well I am shocked.....gas prices are finally coming down. The cheapest I saw today was $3.68. I am doing a happy dance. I am going on vacation in 2 weeks (300+ miles 1 way) I hope gas prices keep coming down!

    I filled my car my gas yesterday and it was 1,509 euro/liter (euro 95). That was the cheapest one I could find in the area. (In the Netherlands).
