It's still 1.65 here but we're always behind the trend. We're last to go down and last to go up.

3-4 weeks ago gas was $1.29 here in Indy then $1.59-$1.79-$1.99 in short order. What excuse has big oil come up with this time for the rapid increase in price?

Supply and Demand, a lot of driving is done thru the Summer months and the oil rigs ain't pumping because it is not profitable at the previous oil rate. We should all drive less and buy a prius were we good americans.

Summer blends are kicking in. EPA at work. Refineries have to start turning out something like 27 different blends for summer. Read one source that said it was over 40 different blends. Drives up costs.

I did pass one station where diesel was less than regular unleaded, first time I've seen that in a long time. As for driving a Prius, forget it only phags drive Prius.
