You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Lowest I've seen is 2.08, I saw that one when I was stuck in Yorba Linda on Saturday. Of course that station was closed due to the evacuation during the fires. What a nightmare.


My usual spot is at 2.24.

I still haven't paid under 2.40.  I hope I see it under 2 again.

I was watching a report online that said its possible that it might drop down into the $30 a barrel range.  Not likely but possible.  At the rate its going right now I wouldn't be suprised to see it drop into the high $40's though.  OPEC is supposed to be meeting again to try reduce output to stop the price from dropping even lower.  But at the moment it doesn't seem to matter that they are reducing output because demand is still down a lot.  Maybe its me but I don't think people will take those prices again at least not as fast as they were happening.  Americans finally had a wake up call that they need to reduce their driving habits and conserve fuel not use it like crazy. 

I haven't driven any less but I have been wheeling less.  I couldn't afford to tow my rig everywhere.  But now with the prices dropping in half I should be able to get more wheeling in now!

I think you hit the nail on the head gotrocks  :thumbs:  My mindset hasn't changed since it was more than twice what it is now, and I still am not driving near as much as I was when gas was $2 the last time.

Its the lowest its been in 3 years now.  I think there is a very good chance that it will drop below $50 by friday.

But our prices are still about 2.20 at most stations here.  Unfortunately diesel is still 2.90.
