Gas Prices

[bobs409]

What about motor oil???? A 5 qt jug of Castol 10w/30 at Walmart is $18.92!!! (they no longer have the Valvoline I usually buy)

I love how the price of motor oil shot up after Katrina and hasn't gone back down since!!! The people are getting the shaft at every turn in this country.

there will be a lot of people layed off, because of the price of oil. good paying jobs. do not get use to lower
prices. state gov't will raise the taxes. jim

Funny they raise the price as soon as the futures prices go up.

Exactly, it should drop just as fast, never does

Had a Mobil station, a couple blocks away from home, in the 60's. Had to burn High Test. Never got more than 5-7 mpg. When a Sunoco opened up, a few miles away, I got 8-9 mpg, on 260.Car ran so much better, didn't matter, with the gas mileage, I had my foot in it, twice as much.

Do you think I'd lie to you Fuzz??

 

[409gang]

I remember in the late 60's when I was in high school buying gas for 25 cents a gallon due to gas wars and all I ever bought was premium!

Phil - wasn’t questioning you on the gas prices during that time. Believe you. But, was really wondering about you saying you actually “worked”.
