May 3, 200719 yr 3.21 here in Ohio at Kroger and 3.19 every where else. Thanks you oil companies for the raping you are giving us. You people who continue to use the gas station for anything other then gas are not helping things. THIS IS WHAT WE GET FOR THE OIL MAN RUN THE COUNTRY. Don't say he and his oil geeks are not making money from this we all have read the reports on the record breaking profit these scumsbags are bringing in.
May 3, 200719 yr I filled my van up yesterday and it cost $59....and I had 1/4 of a tank when I stopped at the station. This is getting scary.:scared: If these rates stay up, it will have a big snowball effect on consumers. Items such as clothes, food, building supplies, etc, will have to increase because the trucks that ship them to market are also having to pay outrageous fuel prices. Their companies will pass those increases on to the consumer. And areas that rely on tourism for a living will also be in trouble. Vacationers may simply skip the long-distance trips and stay closer to home.
May 3, 200719 yr I fill up both my cars today, before the gas hit 3.00, I look for it to be 3.00 or more Friday here in Lincoln Co.
May 4, 200719 yr Author http://www.bluegrasspreps.com/showpost.php?p=2213251&postcount=24 ^^Why we are paying over 3.00 for gas^^
May 4, 200719 yr http://www.bluegrasspreps.com/showpost.php?p=2213251&postcount=24 ^^Why we are paying over 3.00 for gas^^ AAA is reporting that it has little to do with oil prices and everything to do with refinery capacity. Right now the refineries are only able to run at about 83% capacity. The NHC is predicting an active hurricane season. If the Gulf Coast refineries get hit, gas prices could skyrocket.

I think that is just another lie thay are telling us they all ways find a reason to raise the price of gas and if we don't do something soon they will just keep puching the price higher!
May 4, 200719 yr I think that is just another lie thay are telling us they all ways find a reason to raise the price of gas and if we don't do something soon they will just keep puching the price higher! It isn't a lie. But being that no one else can build a refinery makes it hard to hold their feet to the fire, so to speak.

May 4, 200719 yr I seen that in Venezuela gas in under a dollar a gallon.Why is it we are paying $3.19 Venezuela produces as much or more oil than Saudia Arabia does. And they both refine at will.
May 4, 200719 yr Venezuela produces as much or more oil than Saudia Arabia does. And they both refine at will. Well it just seems some one finds a reason to raise the price and the refinery I have herd befor its allways something.
