A price decrease! 2.67/2.77/2.89 Must be more supply or less demand or something. Still a weird increment though. |

Replying to: rockylee (Jan 24, 2007 8:14 am) If the so called "Green folks" had their way Rocky, you would be paying $5 per gallon for gas. Just watch the excitement level on this thread when the gas goes up. Not everyone is thrilled with $2 gas. It pretty much kills any incentive to use alternate energy sources. Oh, and if you want an example of price controls just research the recent attempt to do just that in Hawaii. It ended up costing more for gas than before the cap was put on. http://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory?id=1936960&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312

Only $2.65 for 87 Octane in Southern California, Kern County. $2,75 for 89 Octane, $2.85 for 91 Octane. Well that's at the Shell, Chevron and Texaco stations. Arco is $2.46 per gallon for 87 Octane, $2.56 for 89 Octane and $2.66 for 91 Octane. I could drive 65 miles over the mountains to Bakersfields, Kern County and pay $2.25 per gallon for 87 Octane. But that would just defeat the savings. So I'll just moan and groan and pay the $.21 or more per gallon when I fill up my 26 gallon tank. I'm sure I could just do without another meal. After all, I'm the one who bought the Luxury SUV, right? So it's my fault that he service stations are charging $.21 to $.40 more per gallon in the same state & county. Sorry if I inconvenienced anyone because I bought a Chevy Tahoe. The small cars just can't pull my 18' trailer. I’m doing what I can to save on fuel and get better mpg. I've R&R my plugs and wires with better performance ones. I've replaced the air intake with a better performance K&N 5700 series to get better mpg. I regularly check my tire psi and keep inflated at the correct psi. I drive very slow, according to my 22-year-old daughter, 65 mph in a 70mph zone. I do this to get 2 mpg more. I also make sure that from a stop that I just barely touch the gas pedal and keep the RPM under 2K to get better mpg. I'm even looking at buying some new higher performance coils, but that's an expense of $800.00 or more adding in the labor to R&R all 8 of them. I'm doing my part to save fuel, unfortunately the cost that it is costing me to save this minute amount has absorbed any savings that I created by doing my part. But I can say that I get better mpg than most people do who drive a Tahoe Z71.

Replying to: gagrice (Jan 29, 2007 7:40 am) - I do agree some green whack jobs want $5 dollar gas but I know their is a lot of green folks that don't want to punish consumers but rather would like to see something competitive from the alternative energy industry. I think green folks often get stereo typed and it's not fair. It seems that anyone who wants to see alternative energy they often automatically get labeled something negative because of a few extremist. Rocky
