Do most of you have 1,000 gallon fuel storage tanks, on your property.......???

Southern Oregon is pretty much $4.00 a gallon, or a little more at some places. Yet the Indians in Canyonville are pumping it for $3.29 a gallon...

all these stations are just taking advantage of what they can get away with... definitely no gas wars.... everyone is raping the public for as high as they can get away with.

We had Circle K move into the Rogue Valley..... and a lot of places followed their lead, of charging an extra 16 cents a gallon to use a Credit Card or Debit Card.

I won't do business with any place that charges to use a Debit Card.....10 cents a gallon, vs even 16 cents a gallon...

and those are usually the same stations that are running their prices, higher than anyone else....

but about 80% of the stations are all running that racket....

I've hated fuel companies since the 1973 " gas rationing" fiasco.... and that has never changed.

Seafire called it...it's just gouging. We have 3 fires in the county south of him, and the station owners are keeping the already high price up even higher to cash in on Uncle Sugar's bottomless checkbook. And it's not going to get better, rehab and soil stabilization contractors will work on the burn scars until the snow flies.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

$3.59 per gallon at the Eagle River Fed Meyers, it's been at that price since before Pedo Joe took office.


That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

You hated the companies that brought the fuel... but give a pass to Nixon for dropping the gold backing from our currency which left every country, including the US in a very bad place.

We were insisting they sell oil for the same price, but paying in junk dollars. Oil companies were caught in the.middle.

Economists are saying there is going to be a gasoline, natural gas, fuel oil, and coal shortage this fall and winter. Prices are going to rise. There will be disruptions in deliveries of products and food. Gasoline may go to $5 or more per gallon. Natural gas futures are already up 40% in the stock market.

Why? Because of the shut down on drilling, mining, pipeline construction, Covid layoffs. Environmental whackos wanting to shut down all fossil fuels way before any alternatives are manufactured and put in place.

I saw where Ann Arbor Michigan is outlawing natural gas in new homes and buildings, yet about 35% of Power is produced by natural gas. Coal about the same, with nuclear coming in about 20%. Fuel oil and alternative energy the other 10%.

We have to produce EXISTING power sources before we can build alternatives. Yes, a 100 x 100 square mile array of solar panels can produce all the power of the US but it has to have large battery banks to store for night use. This hasn't even began. Windmills can do the same. The plains states have enough wind to power the country. Same situation. However, we still have a LONG way to go building them.

We need traditional fuel until the alternatives are built and producing. As you can see it is already going to be a bad year with fuel costs and food costs skyrocketing.

Dixie; it’s too late to seek alternative sources of energy. You are correct that there will be a coming “shortage”. Personally, I am focused on filling up my 55 gallon barrels with diesel for my truck. I advise everyone to do the same. The OP is spot on

Mmm, I don’t think so. I didn’t see gas prices in the valley break $3.00 a gallon before 20 Jan. Now since July, sure, I’ve only seen about .10 cents difference. $3.54 when I filled up the son’s car yesterday.

The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first.
