And now they are higher too. they were closer to $4-5/gall. until recently, so it's not just us. They don't have an oil baron president, what's their excuse? Sorry Glen, but I think it's too easy an answer to point finger and blame the prez, I'd look more at both alternative fuels, and bringing oil production home instead of relying on people that dislike us.But we know what the tree huggers will have to say about that
i find it hard to pay $3/gallon when the oil company's are look at our record breaking profits
monkey see monkey do
and amongst that supply and demand are over an estimated 12 million illegals resididing in our country also sucking down our fuel in their beaters.
or if u have a diesel make ur own fuel
If you want to really stick it to them.....STOP BUYING GAS!
and it's not the presidents fault.
i'd agree with that. HOWEVER, :hehe: he keeps on overlooking our most obvious fuel alternative for diesels (ie, biodiesel) and trying to have more research done to find other fuels. nothing wrong with that, but if we have a clean, reusable fuel that is made here in the US and has a positive energy output (read the biodiesel thread), Y NOT MASS PRODUCE!?!?!? plus, its very cheap, and our dependance will not be as large on the countries that hate us.for gasoline engines i know that ethanol works, but for mass production we cannot sustain both ethanol and biodiesel mass production, even if we stop all food shipments to other countries and allow our farmers to produce the maximum amount of food. hydrogen is powerful, but would be very bad in a wreck (a ten car pileup today wiped out downtown los angeles). so for now, increase your gas mileage or swap to a diesel.
well bd I dissagree some. you didn't mention however that everthing that we buy goes up because of that increase in gas. We expect to go down to the grocery store and buy something that normally only costed us say $2.00 then next time we're down there its $2.50. If you think about it everthing starts to go up because it takes oil to transport it.
most common people don't need to pregnant dog about gas prices as much, (expecially soccer moms in their escalades or H2's), but people like me, delivery drivers, and people who are required to drive alot because of their job have every right to pregnant dog. when gas was 2.50 a gallon i was spending an average of 130-150 bucks a week on gas, getting 21mpg. now in my suburban (start my new job tomoro at sears automotive) i spend over 200 bucks last week alone on gas, and i'm getting 17mpg.
