Gas prices will start to fall when OPEC starts producing more in December, which they announced last month. That would add to the above because the oil from shale oil fields is more expensive to produce, so expect US producers to pull back on that production, not increase it. But will gas go to $1.50 a gallon, no not ever again unless they manage to trigger a depression level economic crisis.
Reverse tariffs on these products will sting.

“Petroleum imports from Canada have increased significantly since the 1990s, and Canada is now the largest single source of U.S. total petroleum and crude oil imports. In 2022, Canada was the source of 52% of U.S. gross total petroleum imports and 60% of gross crude oil imports.”

He actually meant $9.61 and not $1.69. It's pretty obvious he's dyslexic because no one in their right mind would claim to be paying such cheap gas prices. No to worry Greenie, I got yer back.
Meh, I was getting gas for about $1.69, after a $1/gallon discount, a member perk for purchases made at the grocery store selling it. Whether it's fair to equate it to those who aren't getting an addt'l $1 off, depends on perspective. It's still the price I ended up paying.

Our company previously outsourced the machining of all of our parts to Mexico.

A few days after the election I noticed our CEO going on long walks outside while talking on the phone, looking rather serious.

Yesterday I found out that he decided to move all machining onsite.

Our people working on cost reductions are having a real hard time…

You mean fuck you Trump, as he was the reason the gas prices where so high after his 2020 OPEC deal to cut pruction by 10% for 2 years, which was over 9 million barrels a day up till mid 2022. Guess when oil prices started to come back down, which also conisides with when inflation hit it's peak? Are you ready for his next round of his stupidity that will cause gas prices to climb?

Well it could be worse like the guys who have been near shoring stuff out of Asia for the past half decade to avoid trade unpredictability only to be faced with what is potentially total disaster.

I'm sorry, I'm supposed to automatically know when people are being sarcastic with a bunch of Maga dumbasses running around who actualy believe such bullshit?
There’s like ten people who post here. How hard is it to keep track of them?

Sometimes it's subtle enough to desire the /s tag, but outriding's post was dripping with sarcasm.

Atleast 35.. 10 bad peeps I can actually keep track of..

Lets see.. there's taj 1, someone's mind 2, red squirrel 3, compuwiz 4, brandonbull 5, getty 6, hurleybird 7, braznor 8, speedy 9, grasshopper 10

Felix has undergone enlightenment and can see MAGA for what they are so he's no longer on the shit list.

And there's Squishy who's lost his mind after the Kamala loss.. hopefully he regains it but until then he's on my shit list!

Nope, just stating nonsense. I get the $1/gallon off without it using up any gifts to me, $1 off is my regular price. If you'd like to get me a gift card for Christmas, I'd much prefer Amazon over a gas station. :)

One reason why I used to buy Dell outlet stuff was all of the YouTube vids about replacing stuff on Dell laptops. Microsoft is starting it's threat of not supporting Win 10 starting at the end of 10/2025 and my old gear doesn't have the new hardware features to support Win 11 security requirements.
Fwiw you can bypass those requirements if you want to.

Hardly. Heck, just this page in this thread/topic alone has at least 12 people, my block list has more than ten people, most of which have been added over the last two years. Besidedsm do you think I keep tabs on who says what and when they are sarcastic, as if they are my friends and hang out everyday? Fuck I don't even keep tabs on my actual friends like that. What kind of a fucking weirdo are you? Besides you might limit yourself to just this site, and have only conversations with like 10 people, but I tend to have tons of conversations with hundereds of people around the world on over a dozen plateforms and or web sites, thru out the week.. I don't keep tabs on any of the people I talk to. Maybe I will start, with you being the first, that says "idiot".

Way to take it way too seriously and respond with a wall of text just like the obvious sarcastic comment, weirdo. Do you not understand social cues or something?
