You sure pay the price for living in California....I just spent $35 on a tank of gas on my MAX! And the needle wasn't even near Empty! And plus it's only 91 octane...
I even heard on the news that it may go up to even $3.25 later on!!!!!!!!!! How are the gas prices in your area?

to tell you guys the truth, i would not pay over $2 for gas...and if I had to I would definitely not drive the Maxima and just drive the 4cyl car in the family that gets 28-30mpg
what is causing gas prices to go up like this?

Nothing against you, but I really doubt that story...isn't synthetic oil man made? IMO that is just some tree huggers, mother earth loving, person who is terrified that the world will end like that. Especially that stuff about every one having to report to the president in June 2005 for an oil war...lol

the thread title scared me till i read you were in CA. then it actually made it seem like you are getting cheap gas.
anyway, its been anything from 1.74 to 1.89 here back and forth. that from 1.54 in the summer. kinda makes me want to have a moped so i can commute on a tank for a month. but then i would probably get run over by a lifted F250

Good point, I was in Jamaica (sorry about spelling) about 12 years ago and gas was $2.85 a gallon. Just imagine what it is now.

Portland, Or its just over $2 on average, for 92....
But hey, if you read the whole peak oil thingy, we will have about 16 years left of oil : )
Were just used to cheap gas is all...if you check the CPI Index for like the 60s and 80's, were paying about the same amount, which is pretty cheap. But, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't continue to stay cheap, and there are a lot of big companies pressuring the white house to stabilize oil prices. Higher oil raises the costs of inputs, so we'll be seeing accross the board inflation pretty soon here...
But, thats why were working our *** off to get the iraqi oil feilds back to production. If you want to make like 100k in a year, go sign up with haliburton in houstin and be a security guard over there for a year. One we get the iraqi oil, that will really put pressure on other suppliers to lower thier prices to compete. There is enough oil out there, and we only get less than 20% of our oil from OPEC, they are becomming less significant, but they still want to profit.
OPEC is the only thing the arabs have. Thier civilization would be extint if it wasn't for all the western dollars for thier oil. They are lucky that we have morals here, other wise we would have just taken it!
You would be retarded to "do a haiti thing" on the white house. For those who actually control the direction our country is gonig, they love for you to look at a single person and point the finger, cause it takes all the suspicion and blame off them! The policies enacted by the president are just a product of a decision already been made. It is so easy to tell what Bush did on his own (afganistan) and what his advisors told him to do (illegal alien policy, debt spending, medicade drug coverage). But i digress... anyway, im still thinknin about gettin a maxima, but whats the diff between the GXE, the GLE, and the SE?? Thanks y'all!

In NZ we used to pay 1.20 per liter, which is about 4.80 per gallon.
We have alot of public transport in NZ!! :-)
PS: That end of the world, end of oil is a bunch of bull ....... you don't really think the government hasn't already thought of this in advance ?
It just means people have to stop being so greedy and self-absorbed .... and then we'll move into really futuristic stuff, like solar and wind energy, and start investing tax payer dollars into more powerful means of using replenishable resources, or creating vehicles, or means of technology that can run using less power. We have the technology there, it's just these oil tycoons are too greedy to let anybody explore the technology more and actually develop real practical examples.
In New Zealand, we have alot of hydro electric power, windmills, geo thermal power, and solar energy. When we don't have much rain, wind, or sun, people have to cut back on their energy usage.
I think humanity, for all it's flaws, has evolved past straight out cannibalism and anarchy.

*Edit* As the price of gas increases, so does the price of diesel. The domino effect of that is increased shipping costs for goods delivered by truck and rail. That increase will be passed on to the consumer.
