Not to toot my own horn too loud. Just over two years ago I posted that $2 gal fuel could be coming. I linked to an oil industry trade journal showing potential huge price drops in fuel related to the fracking revolution. I was attacked by a whole host of rightwingers (You know who you are) calling this an absurd crazy posting meant only as a liberal posting somehow? related to the upcoming Presidential election. Really, a surprise to me. The moderator agreed this was a crazy political posting somehow and deleted the posting before I could defend myself. Just passed a station with $2.29 posted and sinking fast. Just sayin.

Statistics show that majority of time......fuel pricing has increased prior to Presidential Elections. Course we are 2 yrs out on that.LocalRegular gas......$2.59/gallonDiesel...........$3.39/gallonNational AVG.Regular gas.....$2.57Diesel..........$3.46

Great to know that teh prices have come way down. And fuel use has not increased as a result of the lower prices. Many people have replaced the older less efficient cars with ones that get 30 MPG +++. My cousin bought a Ford C-Max with 38 MPG! Even those who traded in cars with 25 - 30 MPG are buying more fuel efficient models, and now you can select from many used cars in the 25-30 MPG range! Even truck buyers are now able to buy a Ecoboost 2.7L pickup with a rated MPG in the 22 MPG range, and Ecodiesels with 28 MPG! Happy Camping!Fred.

Do you know how many years we have heard people here scream $5.00 a gallon is coming soon? I would look for a more reliable source.
