THE GAS THREAD- News, Prices, and Feelings (5+ years in the making)

So I just bought a 2000 Honda Civic SE. Put in $40 and filled up the tank when it was completely empty. I guess I’ll be watching this thread from now on…

Strolled to the gas station and looked at their prices.

$3.70 somethin’ for the cheap stuff, $4.00 somethin’ for the high end stuff. :wasted:

Good thing I filled up the tank when it was still runnin’ $3.50. Cheap stuff. No mas.

Hot damn… thats all i can say right now man.

From what I heard, the best time to filled up is on Wednesday mornings, thats when the stations are trying to get rid of the old stuff to make way for the weekend. Also, in the morning is better than evening (due to the NYSE if I am correct).

This weekend BJ’s was a mad house, $3.09 for members, $3.17 for non. (cheap stuff) I got 353 miles before the light came on, so I am doing pretty good. New job next week that is 13 miles away compared to 30, so I am happy about that.

Damn we need to find some other source of fuel stat. I mean i can guarantee by next year with the way gas prices is going i’ll probably end up putting close to 50 bucks in my honda.

I should of never got a V8 mustang even though I love her to death. Should of stuck with my civic >.> Honestly don’t be surprised if gas hits 4 dollars a gallon during the summer…

You do know that even though new fuel alternatives are developed, they will not be cheaper than what gas is now. The price would be just as much or even higher just to pay for the initial R&D.

damn… an to think i was LAUGHING at this scene in I am Legend:amazed::amazed::sad:

Fuck… just hit $3.63 here (Oceanside) and that is on base!! More expensive out in town and I have to drive to San Diego for my appointment tomorrow… :sad:

Regular Unleaded hit $3.59 in my area. The world is coming to an end.

Anywhere from $3.39 to $3.49…glad I switched to a closer job

3.49 here in the A. I’m jealous of my girl. She works 2 minutes away.

Heh, me too. I live a mile or so away from where I work, shit is saving my ass. If only school were closer xD

3.41…

hot… damn.

Even though the gas prices are shitty, I still cruise the streets like I did when I was in highschool, mainly due to smoking the herb and listening to some sweet tunes. But soon or later I gotta stop that shit or maybe trade in my car for a Prius or something.

Yea, honestly Gas hasn’t put a damper on my driving, I will so out and drive to places I could EASILY walk or bike to; still go home to see my parents…

I’ve definitely cut back on non-essential driving. Leisure trips to shops/places I would go to by myself are gone. The only time I go out on non-essential trips is when other people are hanging out too (friend’s house, etc).

Here’s the Canada Gas Report from me: Gas is up to $1.20 per litre. It seems to increase 1 cent each day. Pretty crazy…

In Los Angeles, regular has hit $3.99-$4 a gallon in most areas. I like the penny difference, ultimate slap in the face to consumers. Fuckasses.

$3.69 in my area. When it hits $4 per gallon, I’m going to start biking to work… not really, but I’m going to really try to conserve gas.
