Default Gas Prices
Gas prices are slowly creeping up,hope it does not hit 4.00 by summer like they claim it will. I sure hope there wrong this will hurt me in the pocketbook and our customers. 4.00 a gallon for gas= less people fishing.

Get ready because it's likely to get there and yes, I'll fish even less then.

I'm sure some turbine-clad "prince" needs a new indoor snow skiing slope in the middle of the desert!

It will put alot of people out of business. Summer of 2008 when gas was that high we made it by the skin on our teeth in the marine business. Maybe I should go work for you paul

I use plus . . . . $3.00 a gal in Lake Chuck, and from the looks and sounds of things because of the moratorium gas prices will hit 4 bucks!
That will blow the sack!

Ryan, it makes my paychecks seem smaller also. :o 1 time after RITA it cost me 125.00 to fill up my lead sled. That's just 2 weeks to work and back. Maybe I should get me a 4 stroke when I order my Haynie.

Blame obammer for this one, he needs 4$ + gaz to make his Green Energy cost effective!
BP was the best thing that could have ever happened as far as he is concerned."Never let a good crisis go to waste"! The speculators are driving this along with the moratorium and the Socialist are loving it.
Where are all the talkingheads now that gaz prices are back where they were when the "W" was in office?? Guess obammer had nothing to do with our current problem!

Perfect timing!! I should be done with a crew cab, 1 ton dually diesel in the next couple of weeks! I had bought it to sell and I'm sure that I'll wind up having to give it away to get out of it!

I would bet that gas will be over $4.50/gal and will continue to go up as long as we have to rely on foreign oil!

Let's hug a tree, kiss a politician, and grab our wallets! Got to love the USA!!!!!

If you grab for your wallet, you may find a politicians hand already in there!

Some say it will rise to 5.00 by 2012. What a great way to stimulate the economy while we are already in a huge hole we cannot get out of. Gotta love it

When I had my Tahoe, I was putting $125 of gas 2-3 times a week sometimes.
