Man, this whole thing is ridiculous! And my car runs PREMIUM yet besides. Yes,I have tried using regular and I loose 2 mpg on it. Plus power/smoothness, so that really isnt an option for me.

3.99 for 87 at Shell on Alton Road in Miami Beach last night..3.85 for 87 at Mobil in Pompano Beach on Sample Road.
I paid $3.78 at Marathon tonight. It has been the same price around here for the last 4 or 5 days now, $3.75 to $3.78 for regular 87.
I think the people in charge of gas and oil prices have been waiting until a certain public official has his press conference tomorrow, then they can and most certainly will use anything and everything that the public official says to instantly start jacking prices up even further.
I just read an article saying the official knows he has to watch what he says so as not to cause a mass panic among the suits and fat cats. I think tomorrow will be the beginning of a bloodbath as far as oil and gas prices are concerned, no matter what the public official says or how he says it. I hope and pray I am wrong.

$4.18 today! UGH!
93 is up to $4.13 up here
Unfortunately, it looks like I was right. Oil went up 55 cents a barrel just one hour after the official's speech/press conference:

I bet gas goes over $5.00 a gallon nationwide before Labor Day.

Yep, I hope you are wrong, but from this point forward $4 + gas will be the norm for the USA.

Well, unfortunately those 'fools' have been using the weather-related outages to boost prices:

"What you have now is the last of the spring maintenance season for refineries combining with Mother Nature wreaking havoc. The good news is that the seven refineries were mostly just power outages and not real damage, so they were back online pretty quickly, but the damage to prices had been done," said Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst for the Oil Price Information Service.
