$1.43-1.47 a Litre By April!!

WTH, anyone just watch the news? Gas prices are expected to rise anywhere from 1.43 to 1.47 by April, and even higher by summer!
I already go through about $100 a week in the summer, now it looks like ill be going through even more cash to keep my car on the road. This sucks but what can you do sadly.

one of the reasons why I went V6...can put regular gas in.Although not the heart stopping performance of the V8 but still enough get up and go for my liking.
As soon as the world economy recovers to a certain degree, I believe we will be looking at even higher gas prices.

Oh goody...........it's going to be fun deciding which of my fuel efficient vehicles I'm going to drive more this summer, my 5100 lb. Jeep JK on 33's, or my 572 HP Camaro. What the hell, I'll just alternate between the two of them and do my part to help the economy and offset anything that those Prius driving hippies are doing for the environment

Seems like every Spring/Summer these predictions come out and while the prices do rise, rarely has it been as high as anticipated - I wonder if this happens to soften the blow...

"$1.38/L WTF?!?"
"Hey they were calling for $1.45, consider yourself lucky"

Still sucks big time!

Pure speculation, imo. Just another way to sell the news to the fearing masses.

Speculation is indeed what it is right now.

They also said if and/or when it gets to that price, it won't last long; people will reduce their driving and the fuel will stock up, and they'll be forced to drastically drop the price to get rid of inventory.

It's happened in the past and it will happen again; it doesn't make it right,
for these profit sucking oil companies to do this , but they can't survive without us using fuel.

Patience will dictate the market.
