Gas Prices $3.50/gallon by June

Hey guys,

Long time lurker, first time poster. No Camaro yet, but definitely by the end of summer! Just read this article, and thought I'd share it with other Camaro enthusiasts, since it's good news!

According to the news this morning, MSN, gas should drop by .50 per gallon by Memorial day since the price of a barrel of oil is now below $100. How fast the stations actually drop the price will remain seen.

I'm right there with you. $4.17 2 nights ago.

And I've seen it up to $4.48 at a Shell station.

about time the market corrected itself again. However, I doubt this will affect gas prices by 50 cents. Stations will probably lower prices by 30 cents max if oil stays at $100 barrel.
