Re: 117.1/L gas prices are going crazy!
looking at this now almost 2 months later and gas was 1.349 here last night. Good news is that the Saudi PM (or whereever most oil comes from) said that these gas prices are unethical and the rate at which they are climbing does not make any reasonable sence in reguard with market standards. He said he was going to hold a meeting with a bunch of countires to discuss lowering the cost of gas! lets see what happneds

Re: 117.1/L gas prices are going crazy!
they'll discuss the cost, and then they'll see their profits...
and they'll be like ooo this much!!!
ppl can afford it...
besides, what we really need is for OPEC to increase supply of oil/crude/nat gas. thatz the only way the prices will come down..
and most of the increase is due to speculation.. the realistic price of Oil is in the area $89-92/barrel, bringin the fuel price to about $1.10/liter
mind u this is my rough estimate.. and by no means an outright fact.

Speculation is making the prices rise and fall like crazy. one day 6c up, another 4c down, then 10c up. Its ridiculous and didn't happen like that in past years.

11 companies have been fined a total of 2 million dollars in quebec for price fixing... i hope this trend of fining them continues to make its way down to ontario...
it's Thursday and I've already spent $150 on gas since Sunday... this is getting really really really lame...

If this goes on i would have to sell my car and start riding a bicycle ,or the only other alternate would be to go for a Hybrid Car or an Electric one, would at least save fuel prices .By the way does anyone know anything abt Audi manufacturing a Hybrid or Electric variant of its models
