President Bush commented on Hurricane Ike this morning. He said, "The storm has yet to pass and I know there are people concerned about their lives." He promised the government will monitor gas prices in the wake of Ike to make sure "consumers are not being gouged."

Only problem with doing that though, is that I might go for awhile without having to fill up, but when I do, they all need it all at once
 
Andre, you are going to have to work on phasing all the cars, so that you only fill have to fill one tank, or two at the most, per month!

At least you'd think that was the headline from the way these bandits are raising prices. Friday morning RUG $3.59---Friday PM RUG $3.77.
 
I'm breaking out the sandbags and boarding up the windows. I won't be buying any gas.

I'm sorry, I just got completely confused. I'm guessing the years you mentioned were the years that said vehicles were purchased. I guess I can't imagine going 10 months without buying any gas.

the news showed lots of states charging $5 for gas. By me it jumped 45 cents to 4.15 at most stations by sat AM. If IKE turns NE enough, I can get some rain on my parched lawn tomorrow.

Luckily for me it only jumped about $0.20 from yesterday, up to $3.799. Also, I won't have to fill up again until Friday at the earliest, even though I filled yesterday. I'm still peeved that I couldn't put gas in my car yesterday morning. It was $3.429 in the morning and $3.599 in the afternoon. Didn't have money in the morning to buy it though. A little annoyed, but I'll get over it.

Prices up about a dime in the Seattle area today...2500 miles from the storm, where likely no Texas oil flows...

I have two older cars that I alternate driving. On average, I have to fill one or the other up every 3 weeks or so. Week and a half ago (Sept 4?) in anticipation of Hurricane Hanna, I filled up the BMW $3.42 for reg. On Friday morning, I filled up the Sentra $3.39 for reg. Later on Friday, most stations were up around $3.75+/- 5 cents. Now, I'm good to go for another 4 or 5 weeks. Hopefully by then prices will have come back down.
