    I think we're around $1.96 over here and dropping a few cents nearly every day. Hardly a day goes by where it doesn't drop by some amount. :D

    How low will it go??? ;)

    I hope we see $1.70 or so. I would not complain about that. Truthfully, I never thought i'd live to see gas under two bucks again. I mean seriously, I thought that was it forever, high gas prices.

    Have gas prices also dropped in Europe too?

    $1.67 yesterday. Filled up for < $20.

    Will it go down to the magic $1.50 a gallon mark ?

    Gas is down to $1.68 now. Think I might just go up to Luray Caverns this weekend. I think my wife and kids would love it. I haven't been since I was a kid.

    I saw $1.99 at one station here over the weekend. The average is about $2.15 for regular right now just south of Seattle, but I'm sure it'll keep going down a little.

    wow, we are at $1.75 here In northern Mi. Just think this summer we were paying $4.30. 30 buck would just move the gas gauge, I put in $30 last night and got 7/8 of a tank. WTF a drop of $2.55 in four months, what's with that?

    its still 2.20 here in suburbs of pittsburgh and around 2.40 in the city. I was driving to cleveland a week ago and after I crossed over to ohio, it was 1.80 on the highway. Us pennsylvanians get taxed out of our ****.

    Still, I never thought I would pay less then $3 again in my life.

    I don't really watch the regular prices but Saturday night I paid $2.12 a gallon for Sunoco Ultra 93. That should put the regular prices knocking on the $1.6X a gallon range. I was just over a 1/4 tank of gas and the truck took about 16.4 gallons for a total of $35 even.I couldn't believe it! $20 will get me 2.5 gallows shy of half a tank now!

    $1.81 in parts of SC. $50.00 got me to work, performed work and then the "ringer" letting you know that you are out of gas went off 20 miles from home.

    Same thing tomorrow. This is nice! Damn sure better than 2 months ago.

    Yep. For Iran to balance their budget, they need barrel prices to be between $75-80 and Venezuela needs to be around $70-75. OPEC will soon cut production in order to get the price back to those levels. I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I can live with that as long as we don't get anywhere near the inflated $147 per barrel we were at in July. At $75-80 gas should stay below $2.50 for premium in most areas.
