???? Are you running completely on fumes? I drive all day everyday, and my tank has never reached the $50 mark. I am pretty bad about driving for awhile after my gas light came on too. Or maybe you're using race gas? I dunno....

My first response to this thread was, "ah yea" but that's probably cause our gas in Vegas has been about ten cents over gas in Stl. And the fact that I watch the financial markets as close as I can. Crude oil has been in great demand recently which is driving up the prices. And the inflation we're having and will continue to have will only cause gas prices to go higher. Sure which I had the money in oil stocks a couple months ago when oil was at $90 a share, now it's hit over $110 a barrel, and I see it going higher. yay for oil companies!

did you know that if bush and everyone else in congress were honest gas would be under $1.50 ?

do you guys know the real reason why gas prices have been so crazy the past few years? its not what the president or media tell you.

remember 9/11 when everyone freaked out because gas was gonna go out and it rocketed way way up to like $4/gallon? well, its been 7 years.......and thats gonna be the standard price by sep.

i could be wrong about how high it got, was only 10, but you get the picture

gas prices are this high because all that extra money we are paying for gas is going straight to help pay for our national debt. its not going to the middle east. fuck the oil in the middle east. we actually dont even need it. but whoever controls energy, controls everything..that is why we want it. our government wants as much control as they can get. we dont even need oil from the middle east. the worlds largest supply of oil is right here in the united states. alaska has enough oil to supply the entire united states for the next 200 years.

It depends how fuel efficient I drive but I can average 28-30. Not too bad for a grocery getter.
