I know,the gas in the tanks was made before all this shit no extra expense. and what if the shit dosen't hit we gonna get a refund "hell no"
man im gonna have to start sellin illegal substances on top of my job now to keep up with gas prices!
its because of the hurricanes.....it will go back down as soon as they get their head back on straight.
The reasoning behind it is that oil refineries all over the Gulf Coast are being shutdown. Its debatable how long until they reopen, considering the size and amount of downfaill we'll be seeing from Ike. The storm is hitting near Houston, and many of the nation's largest refineries are in that area.

Gas is between $4-5 right now on the Gulf Coast. Fill up now, wait a few days, and hopefully it'll drop back down.

Sucks for me, because not only do I have to pay more for gas, but it looks like Ike is coming straight up 59, which is the way I'll be driving there this Sunday, so for sure I'll end up in the remnants of it.

that blows..
well in that case.. im bout to head to a quicksac to get some gas and try to get some squares.. it sucks bein under 18
be careful maybe "Ike" will hit a town named "Turner"
Its ridiculous because oil dropped to approximately $100 a barrel today. It should be cheaper than ever if it wasn't for these storms.

Some gas stations are really struggling right now to keep their obligations met to local retailers because refineries in Lousiana have been closed since Gustav because of flooding and power issues.

The two storms together will be making quite an impact by shutting down refineries in two major areas of the Gulf Coast.

Hopefully we'll be better off in a few weeks.
And to think I was google searching about motorcycle info and I came across a thread where somebody was complaining about gas being 1.89..

Damn oil companies. Lets open our own!!!
I'm glad I just filled up 2 days ago. I barely have to drive now that I live less than a mile from campus so this tank should actually last me atleast 2-3 weeks. Hopefully, god that sucks though
yeah i just went and got gas a few mins ago and the stations here are backed up down the road with people waiting on gas pumps, some of the stations here have made it a $10 limit and some places have already ran out of everything but premium, its madness here...
You guys did see the news right?

Opec (sp?) has stopped making oil so that IT DOES NOT drop below 100 a barrel, We can't do anything because they are over seas.
they

Sucks...
i went to walmart to top it off. lines werent too long.
3 gallons of premium for $11 is still outrageous
read this shit, so I go to get gas for the mower and pull into the station and there are line(of Course) but the bagged all of the pumps I ask if they are out and this guy says naw they said they are down for maint. . I walk into the station and ask and there is a corp. representative there and he says the are calibrating for about an hour. I go outside and get the #off one of the pumps for the feds who regulate it and the guy(rep) comes out and asks who am I callin I pointed at the sign and he starts pullin all of the bags . THIS IS BULLSHIT and Somehow it has to be illegal
LOL so they were just waiting for it to go up before selling the gas?
:lol:
yeah just like they are putting limits on the pumps... $10? i mean come one, that barely over 2 gallons
my guess yes and I have 15 #'s of wittnesses and an appointment with some big wig tomorrow
