    if you want to get mad at anyone get mad at the federal reserve. the printing of enormous amounts of dollars out of thin air over the past months is leading us into inflation. the price of commodities is going up across the board. food, oil, cotton, wool.

    Just wanted to add, I watched an oil company...expert....tell me us on the news that when the price of oil goes up...so does the price of gas.
    6 months later when the price of oil was tanking, watched the same...expert say, when asked, 'why if the price of oil drops, how come the price of gas dosn't go down?' His responce ' the price of oil has nothing to do with the price of gas.......oh well, things that make you go...hummmmm

    been a couple weeks, last time i filled the truck was 2.99 ... but i just took my boat out yesterday and it was 3.17

    i usually wait till i go out of town to gas up my truck cause the next town over CONSISTENTLY runs 10 to 15 cents cheaper than here.

    noticed some people in san diego ... i remember when gas was stupid high a lot of people with diesels were installing in bed transfer tanks and fueling up in mexico

    the price of a barrel of oil is upwards $90,the dollar isn't worth a shit and the gov keeps printing more, Xmas is right around the corner hopefully the price per barrel will go down after the first of the year.
