    in my class my teacher said that the oil industry ppl had a meeting and said that they will start pumping more oil so prices will go down...BUT china and india are in such demand for fuel for some odd reason now the price may not drop...just wut i heard but i dunno for sure.

    oil prices are going to get higher all year. just wait and see.
    with certain south american countries sending more fuel to china instead of the us just to spite the us, things get interesting. check out thinks like "the economist" and other magazines like that. gas prices are going to get more and more expensive.

    Gasoline doesn't store too well...unless you're constantly using it/agitating it then i wouldn't suggest trying to keep it in bulk unless it's going in a mower.

    Gas mileage isn't that great, trust me. I can MAY BE squeeze 320-330 out of a tank, and that's running on fumes.
