How's your gas?

[phat46]

We went for a fall color tour on Friday and filled up at $2.77 a gal. here. Of course when we stopped in little town about 30 miles from here it was......$2.69...!!! At this rate they'll be giving it away soon!

Got regular for @2.729 on the way back from the antique meet in Lakeland, FL yesterday.  Still not quite that low here close to home.

Just wondered if diesel is following gas prices down.  That's what will help prices for everything else we buy.

Hi Lee,
We follow diesel prices online because we transport cars and we often plan routes according to fuel prices.  It has come down below $3.35 from $4.15 a month ago.  All this crap about it being tied to the election is BS.  It has to do with demand, the commodities market and the strength of the US dollar.  It probably will go up again and it will probably be after the election.  If the economy stays down the fuel prices will probably also stay lower.  I wouldn't count on retailers to pass on the savings unless they get real desperate.

Later...

Gas is $2.54 about 10 miles from me but locally, I just filled up at $2.95. The delivery tanker pulled in as I was pulling out so suspect that it will go down some more today(dammit). At least most of my gas is being paid for "by others" for a while.

Sure am glad I passed on that diesel version of my F350 and bought the V10 instead as that fuel is still over $4.00 a gallon and the 6.0 and 6.4 Power Stoke Fords aren't doing much better mileage wise then my monster. I don't need that much engine 90% of the time either (nor even what I have)

In Melbourne Australia.   Yesterday paid $1.52 per litre for premium unleaded[4.55 litres =1 Imperial gallon].  We are being fleeced. A barrel of oil is down to around half of what it was,and our dollar fell around 25-30% . The pump price is not reflecting any of this change,despite all the "watching"our Gummint has done. Let,s see if the new highly salaried "petrol commissioner" does anything,his predecesser threw in the towel.  That,s right in case you guys in the States are scratching your heads.  We actually have someone on the Gummint payroll who gets paid to tell us what we already know. This guy would be also insulated ,because he would have a Gummint vehicle,and use a taxpayer funded petrol card for purchases        ...  Frank.

On my way back from Jacksonville Fl. Monday I saw regular from $2.39 to $2.99. Kind of funny because the high and low were both in Ga. When I went down there on the 7th & 8th the lowest I saw was $3.15. When I talked with my son in Jacksonville Mon evening he said the station by him had dropped $.17 that day
