GAS 5.00 A GALLON IN THE SUMMER

My fellow Camaro owners. Lybia owns 3% of the worlds oil and if you are watching what is going on in that region you can see the unrest. It will have a huge impact on gas prices this summer. We are already seeing a spike. Hopefully it doesn't go to that extreme.

If these oil prices keep rising, I think the mod's need to start a mega-thread for this topic, or it's gonna clutter up these forums worse than the Mustang threads.

I just payed $11.45 a gallon for 104!!! It's getting pricey to go fast. 5 bucks would be ok by me.

LOL, your sooooooooooooo off. That would mean crude needs to get to 200 a barrel and trust me thats not happening. And its more like 1-3% and thats not much. Right now wall street is just making money off a crisis like they always do until people realize the sky isn't falling.

I think it will reach the 4.00 range in the next 6 weeks or so. Don't count on oil not reaching 180.00 to 200.00 a barrel.:(

Who cares, what you gonna do about it? People pay over 5 bucks for a cup of coffee, pack of smokes or an adult beverage without a wimper not to mention a redbull for what 2-3bucks for 7 oz?. Stay at home in a bubble or live your life.

I was in the SW suburbs yesterday and was running on E. I stopped at the first gas station I saw near my destination and firstly they didn't have 93 octane, so I had to put in a gallon of 89. But that's not the worst part, that 1 gallon cost me $3.899.... I drove down the road another mile and saw another gas station selling it for $3.699. When I got back home, I filled up with 93 octane at 3.499. Some people are definitely taking advantage of the situation. I am just glad I know where the reliably cheap gas stations around me are.

Also, last time I checked, the US doesn't import any oil from Libya. I posted some links in another thread, but I am too lazy to dig it up.
