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

damn im beginning i think it was a benefit that i totaled my car last week

well i am now officaly a bus rider. I know the routes and everything. Im not using it for going out with friends and partying, but definity to school and work. gas is just crazy.

I think we all have our limits. I wonder what all of yours are. I mean really sit down and ask your self how much gas has to be before you start riding the bus. 7$ a gallon? 10$a gallon? 20? Im poor so for me it was 4

bum fuck, pennsylvania…
At the CHEAPEST place by school…
3.64
3.84
4.09

At the EXPENSIVE place by the mall…
3.79
4.09
4.39

the gas prices are getting out of hand. my parents travel to the bay area every saturday from the valley and end up spending $220 each time for gas. WWIII is pretty near imo. mass deaths, murder, rape, killing, etc is in the near future.

3.13/gallon in NJ and about $30 to fill up my car

i’ll get about 550-600 miles from it which will last me over a month

hybrid baby

:wow: What? That’s close to 400 miles every Saturday starting at about $4/gallon from LA! Well at least from south San Fernando Valley to San Fran. That’s crazy.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

quitting at doesn’t mean you’re poor. you’re saving money.:woot:

this makes me think about what i was gonna do 2 days ago. i was gonna trade in my jetta for a escalade. wtf was i thinking.

Im struggling right now, I have money saved up but its to pay for my move to miami this summer and to pay for tuition at my new university. I cant touch that money, and im barely making anything right now due to half the people at my job getting fired because of a huge internal theft.

gas is at 3.79 right now and I can only put 5-10 dollars at a time. I find myself at the pump every 2-3 days. This sucks.

This thread needs to shift it’s focus.

What are the best ways to steal gas and not get caught?

:rofl: i remember the good old days when you pumped first, then paid.

It’s still like that where I live.

Are all the gas stations in the states prepay pumps?

I think so. I haven’t been to a gas station where you pump first quite a while.

@ hybrid nickel mining: That’s the kind of shit they keep in the small print.

Yea cause people be stealing gas.

Well it’s averaging $3.70 everywhere i look. the bus is looking better and better all the time. Hell if it gets much worse I might have to bike the 12 miles to work. although getting up at 5 AM just to make it to work on time is gonna suck.

Oh and if you think it is bad now just wait

Gas might be going to $10 a gallon!!!

when/if this happens you know people will riot. I’m a pretty chill guy but that would be something that would get me out there tearing shit up.

Man if gas goes to $10, there better be a riot…aimed at the oil tycoons.

right across the border, I hear, gold, er, gas is about 2.00 a gallon.

But people are misguided by the term ‘significant monetary increase’ as if the only reason gas is going up is because oil companies are driving up their profit margins.

they may well be, i don’t know (although that would be incredibly stupid considering how terrible the publicity would be). i’m just saying.

ah yeah you’re right, my bad. math isn’t my best subject. but the point still stands
