Gas way down

So the wholesale price of gas has again dropped dramatically.
How is this affecting your snowbird plans this winter?
We should be seeing nationwide (USA) about $2.00 per gallon.
Some will be affected nicely some badly.
Thoughts?

By the way I follow the wholesale gas prices this is not from news reports
  • I agree...depends on location, which I did not put in my post. IL seems to swing up during refinery issues. Not sure why...was only stating my observation. However, when we travel south or west (for just about all our RV trips), I always try to fill up in KY or TN or MO or IA or IN....get the better price!

  • But we all know that when we start our migration south it will rise to an all time high the day we go to fill up !

  • Just went to $1.99 in NE Alabama. According to CNN and local news expect another 20-30 cents drop by end of the year. May hit 1.50 per AAA. Diesel is also falling.
  • Ours went from $2.29 one day to $2.55 the next then two hrs later settled in at $2.69. Other towns near by went up to $2.89. Like previously stated, going up! It just depends on where you are, and if you are near the refinery having problems.
