I freaking love it. Filled up for $28 yesterday, first time I've filled up under $30 in almost a year.

WTF man, it's still around $3 around here. The cheapest I can find is $2.94 (Shell Premium). Attack Saudi Arabia NOW!

Saw $1.99 today. Never thought I'd see a leading "1" again in the price for gas.

cause we started using less and now there's a surplus.

keep being prudent with your gas consumption.

When I first started driving in 1983, gas averaged $1.24 (not adjusted for inflation... that's what it cost).

saw $2.62 here last night. had to do a double take because i thought my eyes were deceiving me for a moment there. of course, i wont be happy until its under $2.00 again. these gas companies think they're fooling me making me think that $2.6x is a nice drop. nah-uh suckers, i remember $1.89 gas not too long ago and i want it back!

But what if we win and take control of Saudi's oil supply?

Again... the gas/oil companies have nothing to do with oil prices. And the drop in gas prices reflects the drop in oil from nearly $80 a barrel in July to $60 now.
