If the crap in the ME keeps up, I bet it will be more than that for regular by 4Jul.

Everything is going up. Commodities, precious metals, industrial inputs... the dollar is rapidly devaluing. Just remember that when you see the prices of next year's motorcycles, too: we'll all wish we could get closer to affording the new ones, but they'll go up like everything else.

Keep that in mind if you hear financial news about the "economic recovery." Quantitative easing does not make economic recovery! Our gas prices show what it actually means, and these prices are just the beginning.

The news media have been saying prices will average around $5.00 per gallon for regular this summer...the gov needs to open up some of the reserves, but that is not going to happen.

I don't believe the lack of production hype either..."they" do this to drive prices up...

IMO, if prices keep going up like this, we may see another economic collapse... a lot of people out there have taken pay cuts, changed careers, starting at the bottom, and lost jobs and still have not recovered from the last downfall..prices of goods are going to sky rocket. I think our national economy as a whole will be impacted big time...JMO, for whats it's worth..

I agree, it will get worse before it gets better.
