who here pays over $2.75 a gallon
 

What's the gas price in you area?


Ever see the movie Oil Storm....This movie was on FX and In this movie it shows how the hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico could sever the import of foregn oil to ports around Louisiana.....GAS RISES TO $7.25 a gallon.

The only reason there would be nuclear with China is we are tring to out bid them on oil from Russia......and the person who doesn't get ther way is going to be very pissed off.

$2.10 where I go here in Georgia

5.877$/gallon
?1.29/liter.

yes - same here - maybe ? 1.00/liter when i drive to poland or czech

and my car needs 13l/100km - so it's an expensive hobby :(

Averaging about $2.43 a gallon around here in the Northeast.

that isn't american dollars, right?

about the same here :(

That is american dollars.

amazing, isn't it? :winkwink:

american dollars
5.877$(us dollars)/gallon
?1.29/liter.

everything in europe is much more expensive than in us: cars , gas , real estates, etc...

0,60$ for liter

damn, sorry you all, that sucks

Premium
 

$2.86 Parts of Del Mar CA

2.45 for the cheap 2.70 for the supreme

$1.56455/liter

Yup 5.877$/gallon ?1.29/liter for me too :(
Fucking blows....no wonder why europeans got much more efficient cars than americans, since we are feeling it hard in our pocket if a car is not efficient with gas.

At least gas is cheaper than water still.

word, we also have better cars as a whole anyway :winkwink:

$0.969 /litre in Montreal

$3.85 / US gallon :eek7

I was wondering when Fox's horseshit would come up. They are like Carver Media in the Bond movie. Anyways, $2.35 for regular. Almost $40 for half tank of gas for Explorer.

:321GFY

However, heard a few weeks back, and you won't get this coverage on Fox News, about how the oil companies are getting record profits, and more a less gouging. Governemnt doing anything? With oil man in charge? Are you kidding?!?!?

But they had proof the refineries are not running to capacity, and they are running up tab because they need to start investing in something other than focil fuels.

fo shizzle.

:rasta

It's around mid $2.40s here...

$2.35 a gallon for premium here in north Georgia is about the average I have seen.

About $6 per gallon.

2.59 and growing

Almost $2.60 in the SF Bay area for regular unleaded. Premium is over $2.75.

it will scare you to death

:( :( :Oh crap

when i first began reading about pakoil, it honest to god gave me nightmares. we ARE at peak oil. there is no denying that. we just arent being told..

I pay $0.14 per gallon in Venezuela :)
I think this list has been posted before: http://money.cnn.com/pf/features/lis...ces/price.html

we WILL have a war with china over the remaining oil in the next few decades.

the turth about iraq is much scarier than 99.9% of people could even dream. we have to have that oil because the truth is there is a limited supply of it and oil is used in the production of 100% of products in the world

About the same in Holland

we are at peak production , yet the world demand for oil grows everyday..

do you think they are just going to let us have it?

hahhahahah

If my calcs are correct,
I paid 94 cents/litre on tuesday.
So I paid $3.56 a gallon.
FUCK.

nawww. cars wont even run on gas like they do now, in a few decades.
Honda made a car (http://www.car-list.com/autonews/2004/autonews_40.html) that runs on 100% water (hydrogen). so clean, that you can drink the water that comes out of the tailpipe.

no more high gas prices & saves from polluting the air more. :thumbsup

it takes more oil to produce these new technologies than they save. every single thing in this world relies on oil/petroleum for it's production.

read up on peak oil, you wont ever look at the world the same again.

I posted this article a few days ago.It`s scary and some of you that have read or want to know about peak oil might want to read it:
The Long Emergency

"Big deal. If gas prices get high, I?ll just drive less. Why should I give a damn?"





Because petrochemicals are key components to much more than just the gas in your car. As geologist Dale Allen Pfeiffer points out in his article entitled, "Eating Fossil Fuels," approximately 10 calories of fossil fuels are required to produce every 1 calorie of food eaten in the US.



The size of this ratio stems from the fact that every step of modern food production is fossil fuel and petrochemical powered:



1. Pesticides are made from oil;



2. Commercial fertilizers are made from ammonia, which is

made from natural gas, which will peak about 10 years

after oil peaks;



3. With the exception of a few experimental prototypes, all

farming implements such as tractors and trailers are

constructed and powered using oil;



4. Food storage systems such as refrigerators are

manufactured in oil-powered plants, distributed across

oil-powered transportation networks and usually run on

electricity, which most often comes from natural gas or

coal;



5. In the US, the average piece of food is transported

almost 1,500 miles before it gets to your plate. In

Canada, the average piece of food is transported 5,000

miles from where it is produced to where it is consumed.



In short, people gobble oil like two-legged SUVs.



It's not just transportation and agriculture that are entirely dependent on abundant, cheap oil. Modern medicine, water distribution, and national defense are each entirely powered by oil and petroleum derived chemicals.



In addition to transportation, food, water, and modern medicine, mass quantities of oil are required for all plastics, all computers and all high-tech devices.



Some specific examples may help illustrate the degree to which our technological base is dependent on fossil fuels:



1. The construction of an average car consumes the energy

equivalent of approximately 27-54 barrels, which equates

to 1,100-2,200 gallons, of oil. Ultimately, the

construction of a car will consume an amount of fossil

fuels equivalent to twice the car?s final weight.



2. The production of one gram of microchips consumes 630

grams of fossil fuels. According to the American Chemical

Society, the construction of single 32 megabyte DRAM

chip requires 3.5 pounds of fossil fuels in addition to 70.5

pounds of water.



3. The construction of the average desktop computer

consumes ten times its weight in fossil fuels.



4. The Environmental Literacy Council tells us that due to

the "purity and sophistication of materials (needed for) a

microchip, . . . the energy used in producing nine or ten

computers is enough to produce an automobile."



When considering the role of oil in the production of modern technology, remember that most alternative systems of energy ? including solar panels/solar-nanotechnology, windmills, hydrogen fuel cells, biodiesel production facilities, nuclear power plants, etc. ? rely on sophisticated technology.



In fact, all electrical devices make use of silver, copper, and/or platinum, each of which is discovered, extracted, transported, and fashioned using oil-powered machinery. For instance, in his book, The Lean Years: Politics of Scarcity, author Richard J. Barnet writes:



To produce a ton of copper requires 112 million BTU's or the

equivalent of 17.8 barrels of oil. The energy cost component

of aluminum is twenty times higher.



Nuclear energy requires uranium, which is also discovered, extracted, and transported using oil-powered machinery.



Most of the feedstock (soybeans, corn) for biofuels such as biodiesel and ethanol are grown using the high-tech, oil-powered industrial methods of agriculture described above.



In short, the so called "alternatives" to oil are actually "derivatives" of oil. Without an abundant and reliable supply of oil, we have no way of scaling these alternatives to the degree necessary to power the modern world.

About $1.70/litre around here. Prices have been going up 1-2pence a day for the past week now.

Eat organic food and walk to where ever you're going.

More like 4.00 per gallon here :disgust

precisely. we are back to colonial america, except no one has survival skills.

How do you get that? I come up with $2.93 a gallon after the conversion.

I think I paid about 2.70/gallon yesterday.

paid 2.89 in san diego yesterday.
