Texas might also take a look north and see how well the concept of independence worked for the folks in Quebec.

Replying to: texases (Apr 15, 2009 5:31 am) I agree, the country is under siege by the Enviro whacko elements, led by cult leaders like Al Gore. They have one goal. To destroy the economics of this country. Put all but the wealthy elites into high rise caves and feed us Food made in China. Same kind of cap n trade BS will impact the coal producing states. Even though half the electricity used in this country comes from very reliable coal generators. The cost will have to be passed onto the consumer. And people hear and believe these guys and they end up in charge of US in Congress. |

Local stations tried to push the pump price up toward $2 a gallon a week or so ago. They got up to $1.95 then fell back to $1.89, then $1.82, $1.79. Maybe the prediction I saw for $2.30 average max this summer will hold. I guess if the economy keeps bumping the bottom demand and prices will not be able to climb much. BTW, pricing is for Memphis, Tn.

Replying to: wlbrown9 (Apr 24, 2009 9:16 am) I don't expect to see $3/gal, much less $4/gal, in 2009. Maybe $2.50/gal, on average, but guess we'll have to see where the economy is headed. |

in NorCal is $2.30 for RUG, and I do expect to see something close to $3/gallon this summer. But that should be manageable, speaking from a purely personal POV. As soon as we see the real estate market swing back up, consumer confidence will return quickly I think. At which point we are also ripe for $4 gas again.... ....will that be this year? It might be. If not we can look forward to a year at $2.00-2.75 (CA prices). I just hope it doesn't lull too many people into a false sense of security that gas prices will never spike again.

Replying to: snakeweasel (Apr 24, 2009 5:55 pm) I'm planning a short road trip in late July over to the coast and my concern is availability, not the price per gallon (within limits anyway....).
