I read an article about this approximately 4 months ago…never happened…

There is always something that happens that makes prices jump…ie the hurricane headed for florida, everyone freak out and lets raise the cost of oil!

The only silver lining to this that I can see is that people are finally starting to become wise to the crap the oil industry pulls and the flucuations are of a smaller magnitude

wah wah wah whatever…if youre worried about saving 5 bucks every time you fill your tank, dont drive a car…this is what gas costs…if you dont like it, ride your bike.

interesting article tho, if it happens, yay…if not…oh well.

so far not many people have had too much reason to complain…

93 oct at 3.27/gal…with a 18 gallon tank. sucks, but like cuv says…nothing you can do about it, bitching wont get you anywhere…
