WTF, I paid $2.77 two weeks ago, $2.89 on Monday and now it is $2.99 to $3.08. The price hit a little over $100 a barrel and then OPEC anounces production cuts! Remeber when Bordertown revolts in Mad Max? If the West was doing this S***, we would be sitting in the world court defending ourself. Why is OPEC allowed to stay in business?

2.99 this morning - 14 cents overnight! - I got my E85 kit in but they installed the wrong connectors - I should have the right kit by tomorrow. E85 stayed at 2.09 a gallon!

That's a valid point - how much is it bumping up the price of both petrol and kerosene for aircraft.

The last time I looked it was about 4.25/ 4.50 a gallon. It doesn't jump as fast as auto fuel but of course it eventually follows the "trend" even though most aviation fuel is imported - imagine that!

$2.97 at the local Kangaroo Station... Literally 1.5 minutes north on Hwy 57, the Exxon station right there at Interstate 10 was $3.19 a gallon... THE GODDAMN REFINERY IS 15 MINUTES AWAY FOR CHRISTSAKES.....

WTF is wrong with prople??? Dont they understand math??? Thats 22 cents more per gallon.... I think that sh!t falls into the realm of price gouging.... True horsesh!t....
