iChase Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 It certainly is nice to have gas prices lower than they've been but it's still a kick in the groin. A lighter, more pleasant kick, but I'm still walking funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teenageninja Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Still no real excuse that it has tripled in the past 5 years. Definitely makes life a little easier though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iChase Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Not at all. I would still like an explanation on how that happened. But yes, it does make life somewhat easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I think for the most part, more global demand is causing a good bit of this. Plus, we're not drilling for any new oil either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RailRider Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Yeah a drop of 20 cents or so, Im so excited I think I will drive to California because gas is so cheap now. Seriously, it needs to drop back to the $2 range before I start tap dancing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welchce Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Technically, inflation adjusted, we're not ridiculously above the price of gas in 1918. (yes it's several months old but I couldn't find anything more recent) Realistically speaking, the red inflation adjusted line should be a straight horizontal line and the black average gas price line should be a straight gradually sloping line from 1918 to meet the 2008 price.
