Probably won't have much of an effect. OPEC is pumping oil to keep it at around $50 a barrel to keep North America out of the game. Most of the reserves in the US and Canada require oil to be in the $80 range. The Saudi king said (before he died) that he would never allow oil to reach those levels again.

I don't pay attention to prices either, it's so cheap that driving around trying to find a station that is $.02 cheaper than another station is pointless. I think regular is $1.87 here.

In cold weather you get better performance from regular gas.

I don't look at prices, if I need fuel I need fuel. Now there are certain stations I won't stop at.

I was under the impression that oil prices don't reflect at the pump until 2-3 months later, and the barrel was still on a slight decline, am I misinformed?

Are people really stressing over saving 5-10 cents a gallon? On a fill up you're talking about .50 cents to 1.50$.

I was just mentioning that it's on a rise .Last time it went from 1.55 a gallon of regular to 4.50 real quick ,but a lot of us have short term memory ,and premium was at over 5.00 a gallon, and it stayed that way for a while . That can make anyone think twice about saving some money by not going on long trips because of fuel prices , it's not going to stop you from buying it, but it will make everything a lot more expensive to. Diesel prices will spike also ,and I do pay attention to that, when I'm buying 150 gallons a day. [Frown]
