Are you serious about the Average in the USA??? the average is about 2.90 per gallon. I know for you 3s-gte guys premium is not looking good on wallets ouch!!! I myself use premium but since the average in the Bay area is like 3 dollars i choose to go back to regular 87

no they arnt, we talked about it in economics, with the price of crude oil right now, to make any profit, selling unrefined oil, not paying any wokers, and using no trucks or anything to deliver the fuel, it would cost about $1.75 per gallon, then add the refining cost, and pay the workers, and gas up the trucks that are moving it around, the problem is our refineries are old and not running at capacity and we are all driving to much

1 thing i can tell you is that government regulations on prices won't help anything....probably make them worse...

oil price won't jump from 75$ a barrel to 500$ a barrel just cause iran hates us thats the biggest bull**** i've ever heard....a 425$ price jump? thats just retarded..

but i have to agree that its not the companies jacking up prices to benefit their pocket....the world drives more now then they ever have which means we buy more gas....common sense says the more that is bought the more profit that is made...just remember the company's have to put gas in their car too why would they want to rape people for no reason..they would be raping themselves wink.gif

its all just supply and demand...and that yes we do need to update some of our refineries cause we do consume more then we ever have and they are "struggling" to keep up with the demand

im just goin by what they said on cnn. but if it did would u not buy gas just to spite them??? or would u bite the bullet??? but like i said they can do what ever they want. cuz like it or not we will pay out. oh and look at how much it went up just cuz its now 91 bucks a barrel.
