We went under $3 a gallon today...
I'd probably be happy with under $2 a gallon...
But I won't be truly happy until it settles down and after all the smoke and mirrors from our government...Under $1 per gallon is my goal for happiness.

"but is still up 39 cents from a year ago".
Let's see under $2.00 again and STAY there.

Well, chewyclamso, I'm kinda excited... I hope that it will last and continue to trend down. I understand we're still up from last year but at least the prices are headed in the right direction.

prices have probably reached a bottom, either way OPEC has ways to control the supply, so don't hold you're breath on prices continue to decline.
Don't buy New SUVs, buying new ones will just encourage Detroit to continue to supply us the drugs we're addicted to.
BUY use if you need one.
Toyota has promised to fit their Synergy Hybrid Technology on all their vehicles within 10 years, toyota is a auto manufacturer that knows what the consumer needs. Take heed Detroit, ADAPT or DIE!!!!!

Americans are supposed to get excited about this? Gas should only be about $1.50 to $1.80 a gallon.

Still think that the price at the pump will fall to levels where it was when the price of crude was around $70 to $80 per barrell. That would put the pump price around $ 2.40 to $ 2.70 per gal. regular.

The dropping price of gas has not matched the drop in oil. Oil is down 40-50% but gas is only down 20-30%

Gas went up to $1.05 a litre here in Belleville,Ontario, Canada then down yesterday. I do not know why. I always buy in Napanee or from the Indian Reserve just east of Belleville on Hwy 2 because they are much cheaper than my city.

Pump price here today is $2.33 to $2.39 in many stations. No big surprise people have gone to smaller vehicles with high mileage per gas. More fuel for the land roving big tanks I see on the road.
