I drive a ford explorer with a V6 and I'm thinking I have to sell it. I just don't think I can afford 200+ dollars a month in gas.

I can't stand this...I feel like they have us by the balls (hmm) so to speak. The only thing I'm hopefull for is that this opens our eyes to how dependant on oil we really are and maybe just maybe something good will come out of this.

Grrr! and you know these prices are spiking because of Katrina but everyone (not you guys..just in general)seems to be forgetting that they were on a steady incline prior to the storm.

The cheapest around my area is about $3.299 per gallon. Ridiculousness! Gas prices has more than tripled in the past 6 years!

Maybe we all should start putting milk in our cars to see if they run....

yeah, I wanted to die when it reached $2.00/gallon....and this was way before the storm. Cars like Carollas/Civics have good gas mileage. I'm still bitchin' about it though.

The gas companies have become so predictable that if a Walmart burned down I'd be, mannnnn there go the gas prices again!


shrug They had to think of some excuse summer is over. Although in all reality the oil dereks are shut down.

FACT: In Georgia right now it is $5.80 a gallon!



Totally. They are raking in millions... MILLIONS! An WHAT a coincidence -the prices go up just before a holiday (Katrina or not) when people tend to drive more. batting eyes We are slaves to big oil...

Time to get a hybrid!

Scary thing is that they'd probably downsize before doing that. neutral

Good news is that gas here actually DROPPED to $2.79 today. It had damn better get at least under $2.00 before all is said and done. I know. Some people say I'm a dreamer.... razz

What non-Americans don't appreciate is that our high oil proces are IN ADDITION TO high taxes on INCOME, PROPERTY & SALES!!!

So excuse us for whining and complaining when we get screwed every-which-way.
