Re: Oil prices got you down?
yes u are burning the same 20 gallons a week but if gas was say a buc a gallon it would be
no big deal to wait till the end of the week to get gas, think bac to when it was. but people
now have a mind set they will save cash by topping off their tanks knowing that prices are
going to rise, and because of this mindset, they are now buying 5 gallons more a week topping
off the tank instead of waiting to get fuel when the tank gets low so damand goes up big time
it's a simple case of supply and demand. think this is bull ---- remember princess di's
beenie babies when she died they were upwards of 500 buc's if you could find them now they are
a dime a dozen
a friend of mind who works for a oil company tell me that sweet crude is no lomger used to
make gas and the refiners now use sour crude and it's the price of that oil per barrel thats
even higher something like 75.00 bucs a barrel he's say it will hit 100.00 by the end of summer
then it's going to drop big time. i hope hes right
