Well, I think this still qualifies as a good topic related to our beloved hobby and passion of riding.  Regular gas around here is starting to hit $2.99 .  With OPEC calling for measures to curb the drop in the barrel price I'd like to follow this pricing of gas for awhile.

How is it where you live and ride?

Here in central Oklahoma regular unleaded is as low as $2.31 per gallon.  Diesel is down to $3.28.... still not driving my truck very much and the RV has only been out twice this year.  Was going to take the RV out this week, but too many things came up.

Glad the price is coming down, but oil closed below $70 per barrel today.  The last time oil was below $70 per barrel, gasoline was around $1.70 per gallon.  Gasoline should come down more if the price of oil stays down.

Some price drops here too - Regular gas is now down to around $1.73 a litre - so multiplying that out to the US gallon = around $6.57.

$7.86 for the good old Imperial Gallon.

Saw it at $2.82 a gallon in Pensacola on Wednesday...It's running at $2.85 here in Mobile...I'm actually surprised it's below $3.00 a gl. I was telling my grandson just a few months ago I didn't think we'd ever see it below 3 a gl again. I really thought the Arabs would never let it go that low again without tightining the spicket first. Oh well, lets see how long it takes em to reduce supply to the market and drive it back up...Just the SOS

Supply & demand causing gas prices to rise & fall for over 100 years. I noticed that first when I looked at petrochemical pricing in the 1970's.  Wow, so I am trying to contain my amazement here somewhat.

It will go up again, it will fall again.  You can bet on it.  Very safe bet, BTW.

It's in the $2.85 or so range here & dropping almost daily.

$2.85-$2.99 here for reg...still dropping.  Demand has dropped, so there is a temp glut on the supply side.  All the resst of the chit going on is driving prices down too.  Retail sales are being hit hard all over...lots of good sales going on though.
