This article suggests that, in general, wholesale gasoline responds very quickly to adjustments in the going rate per barrel of oil - then in another three weeks that price adjustment would be reflected at the pump. So early May prices, by that model should be in play right now. Where I think the thesis in the article breaks down is that we have been witness to near instantaneous reflection of increased spot oil price to higher prices at the pump. |

General Motors, Others Decide the SUV is Dead - U.S. News Rankings and Reviews
Perhaps the main reason for rising gas prices, the [censored]ing assholes that have to drive gigantic SUVs. ![]() |

I buy on and off road diesel and just got an email from my distributor to expect price to go up 15 to 20 cents over the weekend. It looked like crude was up $5 a barrel earlier.
I bought gas for $3.72 yesterday. |

I would say the big news today is Israel/Iran. That's some pretty agressive talk coming out of Israel.

This article says that within 5 years many new technologies leading to 40 MPG SUVs or better could be on the road. The sad part - that article was written in November 2002 - and nothing was done since then. |

Smart people in the buisness seem to think Oil will hit $200 a barrel by the end of this year. That should put gasoline somewhere around $6-$7 a gallon. The good news is that it cant go too much higher than $9 a gallon, or liquid Hydrogen via electrolysis becomes cheaper, even using old technologies. The bad news, $9 a gallon gasoline will bankrupt all US automakers, and cripple the economy with inflation.

Jumped again. From $3.99 to $4.09 for regular. Where's the outrage people? This takes food off of the table of the middle and lower income groups.

The anger is there, but what can be done about it? The things that should have been done like R&D on Hydrogen engines, new electrolysis processes, building more powerplants from cheap energy sources such as Nuclear, Solar, and Wind should have been done 15 years ago. The outrage is there, I know mine will be expressed with my purchasing power by buying alternative fueled vehicles when they arive, and buying, and driving as little as possible until then.
