XVP Gas up 40 cents in 3 days

#1

OK, I have to check in on this XVP issue. Up 40 cents in 3 days? Here in
Michigan, the going rate was about $2.59. Overnight it went to about $3.15.
One station owner was on the evening news complaining that he didn't have enough
3's for the big price sign.

Check out GasBuddy.com. Contributor-driven site that lists "cheap" gas in
your area.

I don't normally post much but I just had to say this. I'm on Long
Island,
in NY. Last night we drove to visit someone. On the way there we passed a

gas station that had regular at $2.99. Two hours later, on the way home,
it
was $3.31. It went up 32 cents in two hours.

Unleaded gasoline is trading somewhere at or near $2.57 a gallon in
the futures market as of 15 minutes ago. Add in the various taxes and
dealer-station markups, and it should come as no surprise that
practically everywhere in the nation will be over $3.00 a gallon, if
they are not already. You just can't knock 5 refineries off line and
have no price and or supply disruptions. Those of us that are older
(gasp) will remember gas lines in the 1970s, as well as limits on
purchases. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
