Oil Now $111.00 Per Barrel

[Brett]

This is getting out of hand.... Just a few weeks it was in the low $90 range which was still high but in the past 2 weeks its gone up about $2 per day and each day closes at a new record high.

[sirkus]

I feel bad for who ever owns a diesel truck. Is there a good reason for high gas prices this time?

[Sammich]

no...just greed

[EJ25RUN]

whats sad is we might reach $200 before year is over.

It will be chaper to just run race gas soon

[The Ninja]

Wrong. Opec is raising the prices because of the weakening dollar. The white house is full of douches that don't want to talk about the weakening dollar either.

[nightracer]

no...just greed

There is no ****ing reason on earth for oil prices to be this high other than gluttony, treason and fascist inspired greed. No Republican or PetroComp rhetoric can explain oil prices jumping $2 and $3 a day when absolutely nothing is happening. I'm sick of this bull**** lets get somebody with more than 12 brain cells in office. I do not want someone who walks on their IQ score representing me in the white house, to the UN or for the Petro Companies to Opec.

GREED?????? It is basic economics! They have a product and we have a demand for that product so the oil companies can raise the price to whatever they want and we will still pay for it. I don't blame them for making a profit, thats business.

[EmminoDaGreat]

you think that race gas wont go up in price? lol.

[TIGERJC]

you think that race gas wont go up in price? lol.

of course it will, but not at the rate of gas. How much of race gas is made up of synthetics?

[EmminoDaGreat]

Im just telling you it will never be cheaper.

[TIGERJC]

Im just telling you it will never be cheaper.

Sarcasm off , how about you pm a estimate on how much u guys will charge to make sure my turbo adapter doesn not leak (easy money)

[Brett]

HUGE PART...i mean gas i a REAL bill now man. its like what...$50/fillup now in the maxima and like $40 from E in my truck...

[Brett]

Thats what Im sayin, Its getting to the point where gas is going to be a huge burden each month and keep people from spending on pleasure items, etc so the recession is a VERY real threat

I think al qaeda is now established in Kuwait and in Saudia Arabia, so I believe now is the best time to liberate those peoples

we are screwed b/c they basically have a monopoly; the top 4 refineries are American/British owned. the oil industry hasn't taken losses in years; most have recorded record gains. with the wonderful excuse of the Chinese. i can understand this to a point but China didn't just all of sudden gain millions of cars + drivers in past couple years. our prices are all about GREED. i just heard a study that that hybrid sales have increased 60%

Uh, yes it did. I've been 3 times. In 2002 (first time I went), you were considered wealthy if you're family had a car. 1 car to share!. I just got back again in feburary, and everyone in my fiances parents neighborhood now has a car. In 2002 there might of been 10 cars in the whole neighborhood. There used to be almost no middle class. Now it's exploded, and their middle class is growing like crazy. I can't believe how much it's changed in the past few yrs.

To make matters worse India is almost growing at the same rate.

Here's an article for further proof. Written in Canada in case you think the US government is bull****ing us.

instead of "Operation Iraqie Freedom" we should of done "Operation Iraqie Peace for Oil" way more catchy and possilby we could of recouped the 500 billion dollars or so spent

Some people who are supposed to compete in 5 months in the Olympics there are refusing to go due to they fear the pollution when doing thier races, etc.

China is suggesting the wear masks all the way up to the event, do thier thing then put it back on, Thats how bad they know thier air is

[blaknoize]

and last I checked they don't require catalytic converters

Neither did American cars back in the day when they had HIGH performance motors, doing exactly what a growing country does until it realizes what it is doing and matures. DUH.

[Sammich]

[eViLMunkey]

hell gas prices where I'm at are aroun $4.00/gal I've been riding my bikes to work.. hell at least I'm gettin exercise during this crap, but soon to be drivin my gas guzzler Trooper again since my civic wont pass inspection up here damn I hate MA

[Killer]

yeah... my next move will be as close to work as possible.... i've got a 40 minute drive to and from work.. and i drive a montero... which averages 14-16 city....... MAYBE....

it costs me right around 70 bucks to fill up too.... i need a bike and a crx and i'd be happy... (only problem is i take my dog to work with me... so i may need something bigger)

[eViLMunkey]

last time I filled up the trooper in sept it cost me $110.00 and I haven't driven it since I just added Sta-bil and parked it

[Brett]

damn $110

[TRAYZ06]

Time to really start looking at alternative fuel options. Biodiesel, Ethanol, hydrogen, etc.

[NAIZBST]

buy a honda ruckus

[eViLMunkey]

I just need to fix my hatch and get it back on the road or just move back to GA so I can drive the hatch and ditch the trooper but my bikes fit in the back of the trooper (bikes = my BMX and Mtn. Bike) plus I need to still get my license back AGAIN.. can't seem to hold onto it...

[silversol]

its not that the price of gas is going up, its that the value of the us dollar is going down. last time i checked the dollar was worth 1.51 against the euro!
