With all these rising gas prices and the thought that it may not come down. If greed is the answer, shouldn't we jump on the bandwagon and buy some oil stocks?

This equates to a whopping $4.46 US per gallon. I wish I could pay your cheap $3.50 a gallon instead.

Filled up the X5 with 82 liters costing me $115 Canadian or about $97 US.

What was your price a year ago...in the US the average was 1.87 was up to 3.xx last week. Nice little increase. Everyone assumes the US is crying about the actual price.....we aren't, not so much as we want to know why the rediculous increases.

Say your 4.46 cost went up at the rate the US did...you'd pay nearly $6.00 this time next year.

A year ago the Canadian rate for 91 was about 85 cents per liter. So I experienced a 64% jump in one year compared to the other day's 139.9 cents.

On a good note, today the 91 costs just 118 cents per liter. So today I'm at the US equivalent of $3.79 per gallon. That's a solid drop. I don't understand these spikes and falls in gas prices.
