The price of gas went up again today to $1.40/L for regular.
To fill the tank on my 2005 F150 with Premium will cost over $200.

No, it was a war for oil, remember? See the cheap oil?

It's refining. Thank the people who search out special intrest sods, and exotic grasses, and caused a moratorium on refinery construction.

OPEC still gets $12 a barrel, right now.

Well
Today we are at $1.47 L dry.gif

Maybe I am dreaming, or intoxicated from holding back a long winded political rant....but I was thinking...

In the future, when gas hits + $2.00L, the small economical, roadster antiques... ehem...914....should see a huge increase in value. I suspect a lot of the American/not so special models, that have been getting inflated market values, will start to fall. Who wants to pay 300$ gas bill to drive around in a 69 Skylark 4 Door ?
My 914 with a mild hoppup, carbed 2.0l gets surprisingly good mileage. For the same amount of miles, I would pay 100$ in gas for my teener

As long as the gas prices don't just plain ass kill the "weekend" car world.

What you guys think? I am trying to find a brite side in this mess.

Thank god I installed all the heater parts in my car this year.
Now I can drive it all winter and save $$$ on gas.

We all know Redshift is right.
However the crystal ball of fate glowing hotter by the second:
Those that gouge citizens around the globe now will pay eventually. Keep Bastille Day in mind. Screw someone once and it might feel good to the screwing party but when you screw the whole world relentlessly to have more money than you could ever spend, some on the globe are going to make it their life duty to make the remaining days of those money loving turds short and very painful.

I have a bicycle and hope all others will get one and learn to use it daily.

As Jeroen allready stated ... wellcome to our world boys !
Here in Belgium we are getting close to 1.5 €/L. Must be about the same in the Netherlands.
This means we are at about $ 2.00 ...
Our goverment finds a reason to increase prices almost every two days.
If you know that 80% of these prices are in one or another way just taxes ... ar15.gif

By the way, are those OPEC'ies not just attacking our Western way of life ?
