E St. Kruiser50 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Gas prices here are dropping like a boulder over a cliff . This is like 2003 prices in this area, and prices are still headin' south. Wonder where it'll bottom out. Can't believe it. Never saw anything like this before.

Harry P. Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 It's been a year of extremes in many areas. Gas here (we usually pay among the highest prices in America in the Chicago area) are around $1.80/gal today. Just 4 months ago I was paying $4.25/gal for regular!

alfa_owner Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 (edited) You think thats expensive, you can double that for gas prices in the UK! Edit, just worked it out little more accurately, about $6 a gallon here so not quite double Edited November 28, 2008 by alfa_owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadRidesByDan Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Here in the great white north in Alberta 2months ago I was paying $6.53 a gallon ....today I filled up at $3.96 a gallon....not too bad but I wish I was paying $1.80 gallon. Last time we saw those prices was 16 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAL Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 $1.58 gal They said some places hit as low as $1.17. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaBoy Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Does that mean we can fire up our Hemi's and let loose? That is, if we have jobs to pay these low prices, and more important, if we have Hemi's. I am almost there with my Taurus SHO with the quattrovalve Yamaha V8. It rocks.

george 53 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 Here in the downriver Deeetroit area, it's at 1.51 a Gal. I read well over 2 years ago,that at a meeting in Wash.D.C. the oil co.'s decided to raise prices , under the understaning" If we jack it up to 5.00 a Gal. an leave it there for a while, they'll(the U.S. consumer) be GLAD to pay 2/3 bucks a gallon. Danged if the bastiges din't get away with it! Just ANOTHER sign of pure corporate greed in all it's essence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george 53 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 When did the SHO's get V-8s? I thought they all came with Yamaha V'6's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dub Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 When did the SHO's get V-8s? I thought they all came with Yamaha V'6's. George, the "fish" Taurus had a short-lived SHO version that had a ridiculously small trunk lid spoiler and that V8 that Ken is talking about. Even more of a sleeper than the original two SHOs. You really had to know what you are looking at with one of those. And gas here is still above $1.90. It's better than where we were but I'm afraid we are going back there after Jan. 10.

Robert Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 $1.87 per gal. for reg. in Huntington, WV, but since my company shipped my job over-seas I don't need to buy gas, lol. I have no job to drive to, so the lower price doesn't matter a lot to me, but I am happy it's gone down. We all must remember, though, when it comes to prices; What goes down must come up.
