Sweet. I'm still waiting for ours to dip below $2/gal, but we're getting close.

Kind of amazing how cheap it is getting.

This is from this spring, less than seven months ago. Granted it was in Death Valley.


If I had to live there, I would charge $8 a gallon. Especially in the summer.

Exactly. I had an Automotive Design teacher in college that told us "What's one easy way for oil companies to make you feel great about paying 3 dollars a gallon instead of 2? Make you pay 4 dollars for about 6 months and then drop it back down to 3."

This little relief right now is nice, but I have a feeling they're gonna be puttin it to us even worse next spring/summer than they were this year.

I use www.gasbuddy.com to find the lowest prices around. When you put in over 30 gallons of gas, a $.10 change from station to station can add up to a few tacos. You just have to make sure you don't drive out of your way to get the lowest price or it defeats the purpose.

There are a lot of people working hard to get gas back up to $4/$6/$8 dollars a gallon.

I remember hearing the OPEC guy say something to the effect of, people were buying at $140 a barrel and so we should be selling at $140 a barrel.

If you had something to sell would you not want its value as high as possible.

Anyway, its nice that gas is cheaper, for now.
