        • I'm starting to wonder why gas is as much as $1.79/gallon. Should be cheaper at $30/barrel.

          • I been thinking that too. There can't be a 100% correlation because there are some fixed costs but obv somebody's raking it in right now.

              Gasoline adds at least one additional layer of trading tomfoolerly to the consumer cost over its component prices, and it has already tanked considerably. Its cheaper here now than where it bottomed-out after the market crash in 2007.

                Exactly! A friend of mine had an Expedition and was thinking about getting an Excursion. I asked him "why don't you just buy a greyhound bus? ".

                        • If I passed gas for only $1.48, I sure would feel relieved!

                                These are the same people that bitch up a storm when it costs a hundred bucks to fill up their mini-APC in the summer.

                                Act like a sentient being, capable of learning from past experience, and restrain yourself from climbing back on the hamster wheel. You can still blow the money elsewhere if its presence in your bank account is so offensive.
