Lets just hope iran doesnt get involved with the lebanon-israel thing. If they do, hello $90

8

glad my car gets like 15 mpg lol. Honduh here I come.

what was the city mpg?

I’ll worry when we hit $6.00 like europe, until then I’ll have to deal with 38mpg city/45mpy hwy

10

I love how gas prices are gonna jump at the pump tomorrow when these prices are for August delivery…

As to the europe thing, euro and UK fuels are taxed uber hard to pay for social programs. Here, it’s just the companies raping Americans

11

city wasnt great… probably between 18-25, although I never really used it for that (90% of the driving I did with it was all thruway/expressways)

12

Guess I’ll be staying out of boost and not drive the jeep :frowning:

13

I was this close to investing in gold when oil shot up from katrina…when one commodity goes up the others follow. I stayed in stocks :mad: I’ve made about 15%, but i could have been sitting pretty

15

yeah until last month when it took a $140 slide

16

that was temporary, its obv. coming back now but it would have anyway

17

But the winning play was to sell @ 715 and rebuy sub 6 holla!

Gold has been a great investment since 00 though…

18

of course Iran is gonna get involved. then they are gonna get what they got coming to them from Isreal and the US.

19

the winning play was to buy oil futures for this summer 3 years ago

20

If you think we’re heading for another temporary oil crisis now would be a great time to buy some gold…since it’d top out at around 1300
