Default Where will gas prices go next?

2008 found us paying as much as $4.00 plus, a gallon for gasoline and a barrel of crude was going for about $147.

Now, crude is right about $47 dollars a barrel, but with the prices of crude oil rising, so will the prices of gasoline at the pump.

Plus, take into consideration that some countries are cutting back on their production, which will most likely cause prices to rise even more.

Auto dealers are also affected by the prices of gasoline. Its hard for them to move anything that doesnt get the best gas mileage for your buck.

So according to statistics, dont expect gas prices to do anything but rise.

It is about like the stock markets..LOL Up and down, up and down. Looks like they could make up thier minds about prices and leave them be. I think they raise it when they don't need to , just tomake a huge profit, as if they don;t already.
