2.57 here........

bassfisher02 · 08-21-05, 06:54 PM

well we all know there is alot of oil under alaska. but the problem is, we cant get it due to polar bears. i say we make a designated area in alaska that we can keep the bears, and then drill for oil. but we need to do it as nicely and as enviromentally sound as possible.

Dyas · 08-21-05, 06:59 PM

I got an idea..................... WE CAN GO BEAR HUNTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $2.83 here.......

Nitro911 · 08-21-05, 07:27 PM

Diesel is 2.54 here. The waste from gas production and it's 2.54? How does THAT work?

Marty · 08-21-05, 07:48 PM

$2.68 at the corner station, which is probably 3-5Â¢ above the city average.

zooker · 08-21-05, 08:24 PM

2.59 and rising i have seen 2.65 for the not so dang cheap stuff.
i say that we are incontrol of one of the greatest oil producing country's in the world -iraq-i think by international law we get spoils of war. so i think we need to spoil our selves with a few millions of barrles of FREE oil..

there's a pipeline above ground from alaska to the us.. i've seen pics of it years
ago... not long ago bush wanted to go to alaska and cut down the virgin
timber there and turn it into fuel heard it on the new awhile back
forgot to mention he didn't want to go to the iraqi's for anymore oil

lonestarboater · 08-22-05, 01:51 AM

Hey Rebbasser try filling up a 62 gallon tank at $2.53 then you'll know the definition of hurt.

Bendersbe16 · 08-22-05, 07:09 PM

2.70 here. haha at least my parents pay for it, but i have to pay for insurance

lizardsrule · 08-22-05, 07:20 PM

bassinbob · 08-22-05, 10:28 PM

$2.55 here. Why haven't they gone to alternate fuel yet?

lonestarboater · 08-22-05, 11:10 PM

I saw a guy on the news who converted his old diesel mercedes into used vegetable oil for fuel. he says that the vegetable oil gets thin enough when heated up to explode like diesel fuel so it was really easy converting it. He says his exhaust smells like french fries. He put a 64 quart cooler in his trunk for the gas tank. It looked kinda funny.

angelus40 · 08-23-05, 12:02 AM

lonestar that was a guy from cincinnati who done that

lonestarboater · 08-23-05, 12:48 AM

oh ok but it was pretty cool eventhough it was gross seeing him pump out used oil from the big tank. They should make propane powered cars because it's like $1.33 a gallon right now.

angelus40 · 08-23-05, 01:13 AM

atleast they paid him for it

lonestarboater · 08-23-05, 01:21 AM

yeah thats a pretty good deal for both sides

polar bears, who's feeding this BS to you, there are millions and millions of acres of uninhabited tundra up there, a few oil rigs will take less than 100 acres total, less than 1% of 1% would be impacted, I say DRILL DRILL DRILL!

flachristopherkeene9 · 08-24-05, 06:08 AM

2.559 here that was on like Monday when I saw that though and it was at wal-mart where they are usually a few cents cheaper than everyone else.

angelus40 · 08-24-05, 10:25 PM

RatLTrap · 08-30-05, 03:40 AM
