$3.32 today. I remember a few years ago on a vacation trip it really rankled my hide to pay 3.12. I'd welcome that now.

Overnight we jumped 7¢, so it's now at $3.39. What happened to the market to cause that?

We are still sitting at $3.67. If you don't want the ethanol in it you will pay $3.79.

I had an '88 Ford Taurus wagon that got better mileage on ethanol blend gas than it did on straight gas. There was several mpg difference.

WTH is going on with gas prices. We jumped 10 cents! 3.49 to 3.59 within a couple of hours. Pass one station on the ride home this AM that is actually at 3.61. Here we go again--price increases with no reasoning behind it. Grrrr!

The price of crude is up, over $106 a barrel, it had been less. But why it is up I don't know. Probably Iraq situation?

One, of only a few, good things about not working is that I only have to fill up about every other week.

As the situation in Iraq continues to escalate, gas prices in the U.S. are set to rise. The national average for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline stands at $3.65, with the prospect of a five-to-10 cent jump over the next two weeks The turmoil in Iraq spooked Wall Street last week and left the major market averages in the red. There was a bit of irrationality in the markets last week, but the story is still evolving. A lot of places have already seen prices go up—for motorists, there is a ceiling as to how much prices can go up. When the news first broke about the al-Qaeda offshoot’s movement in Iraq last week, wholesale gas prices spiked as high as $3.99 per gallon uniformly in places like Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. If there is a real disruption in Iraq, there is more potential for price hikes, Oil hasn’t reacted that much, its only up a whopping seven cents per barrel. If this were 2005, we would have seen a 20-to-30 cent jump in gas prices. But it’s lower today because our domestic production is so much higher.” If oil exports are stalled in Iraq, drivers can expect a hefty price jump at the pump. If it weren’t for this escalating situation in the Middle East, Americans would have enjoyed a summer of reasonably-lower gas prices. June is usually when gas prices go down. Unfortunately, you never know when the Middle East will evolve into a full-blown situation. There’s forecasting, and then there is trying to forecast world events into your forecast. The crystal ball is never able to predict this stuff.
