What I mean is, it have been going up in price every day for nearly three weeks. And it isn't going down. And it isn't going to anytime soon...if ever. That cheapest price you will find is today, as tomorrow it will be more.

actually the prices fluctuated for a bit =.=
one day it was 3.59, the next 3.69...then 3.63......then a sudden 3.79...
and back to 3.70 .....
=.=''

The AAA, which tracks all 50 states and averages them together, has posted increases every day for the last 17 or 19 days. They has never ever happened before. Of course, local prices might vary, but I haven't seen a price dip around Portland in at least that long.

damn it
i'ma just buy a crotch rocket =.=

I'm sorry but here in France we pay gasoline in liter, not in gallon (and I forgot the convertion between liter and U.S. gallon :o )

Here we had two ways: normal gasoline with more or less octan level (called here as "essence", then "super", and "super sans plomb" (without lead in it). After we had gazole, for diesel thermodynamic cycle engines.

Gazole was always cheapest than normal gasoline, it was always so the prices of diesel cars were a bit higher than normal ones to make a economic marge.

But since two or three weeks ago, gazole's price became higher than gasoline! (about more than 1,50 Euro a liter, I let you make the convert in USD per gallon)

Our small fleet of fishing boats, dependings most of diesel engines, could difficily handle this situation as it is seems (fishing became not rentable here now...). They made strike and asked to the governement to do something.

But here, the fuel is overtaxed by government, so I don't know what will happen.

It is odd here that, even if the prices are high, and as we have extended common transports networks (but they still have many defaults, this is not the subject), that you can hear all the cars running as more as ever...

Personnaly don't have one, I have transportation from my job, but if want to go on holiday I have to pay train (railroad), but I feel if I had a car I couldn't manage the gasoline bill, even if here we have relatively low fuel consomption cars.

So I expect I could have given info about gasoline situation in my country.

Tenchu so not true man a good percentage of people have motorcycles and get pretty good mileage or there are the ones that ride horses everywhere :vsign:

motorcycles dude
 

motorcycles make more sense especially here in california since you can legally split lanes. I do'nt know how people can sit in traffic (commute) when
you can get a bike? my commute sometimes (143 miles ) free bridge toll, nice
scenic pacific ocean.

I'm sorry if I'm resurrecting an old thread, but I had recently taken a road trip from Houston, Texas to Cedarburg, Wisconsin. And, I had noticed that as I progressed north, the gas prices also reached a higher price. Houston -- $2.45 on average. Cedarburg -- $4.76, average. It could be coincidence, but if it's not, I'm curious as to why it's like this.

Cheapest gas station here is $2.99 we have massive gas taxes in my county...
