  • I can handle 3/gallon. Not too long ago, it topped more than 4/gallon. Here in NJ, the real scourge....the politicians....raised the price of gas by 23 cents/gallon overnight!
  • Closed stations around guadalajara right now, lineups at the open ones
  • Just remember that this shortage is in Mexico and not in the USA, they did not have shortages in the 70's in Mexico only in the US, now that there are "foreign" supliers of gasoline they can play games in Mexico too.

  • they,are the members of opec you know the oil guru,s who can change the number of oil pumped per day which will change the supply and up the price.they just cut the supply starting this month and the price has started up all ready. just my opinion but $3.00 gas by may.

    gas,oil its all up to them ,there is only a shortage when they make one.


    Who are "they"? I honestly can't remember a gas shortage/crises since the 1970's.
  • The price of the gasoline is going up next month, they are playing the same game as they do in the USA, gasoline shortages and long lines to get fuel, how come we never see airline planes in line to get fuel or government vehicles in line to get gas or the military with a line of tanks waiting to fill up?

    Yes there have been shortages of fuel in some cities and states, not in Mexico City, the politicos live here, the wife's would complain that they have no fuel to go to the beauty parlor or shopping or worst to breakfast with the rest of the witches.

    Well this is Mexico, now with an American flavor.

    Ahi se va, ni modo que le hacemos.
