This is a really good post to look at from the beginning. We all sounded so excited when we got to the low $3 mark! Now many of us are under $2.00. I paid $1.99 Tuesday. I can fill my little 12 gallon tank with less than $25!! And the prices continue to drop too!!! Cat's $1.53 price doesn't seem like it's out of reach for some of us.

Marc Ex Member Gender:	Re: Gas prices!! Reply #112 - Nov 17^th, 2008 at 4:29pm Mine's only 32 gallons and I just put in about a 1/2 tank for $1.699 here in Bastrop, TX. When I left Morro Bay, CA in June it was $4.60 to $4.80. It hurt even more when I found out that the total taxes on that were more than the oil company was making in profit - but nobody was screaming "windfall" to our Government......... Marc

Reply #116 - Nov 17^th, 2008 at 6:25pm $1.87 here, plus I got a 20 cents off per gallon up to 20 gallons coupon. That's a good thing since we got a fricken' foot of snow today and I'll be driving Phil's truck instead of my car. I love living near Lake Michigan in the summer, but in the winter those dreaded Lake effect snows drive me insane

I do not know the conversion to U.S funds. Brew did the conversion for me last time but I forgot the number we X times it by. Costs us between $45 to $50 bucks to fill the Grand Prix from almost empty. It was up to $65 this past summer.

Rolomatic Ex Member	Re: Gas prices!! Reply #124 - Nov 17^th, 2008 at 8:53pm $1.78 today by my house but $1.85 by I94. Edit to add; The oil companies are trying hard to make us forget that their $4.00+ prices are what ruined the economy in the first place. Funny how they know what the market can bear, and when they can get away with charging just under the breaking point.
