Gas price hit $3.00-Traveling to Great America?
Well guess what. The tank is 28 gallons and the the truck is modified. I'm getting rid of it though and getting a G6 tommorrow. Oh and BTW, it's pretty rude to someone a liar. It's no wonder everyone hates everyone in today's world.

Candy: What you lookin' at?
Otis B. Driftwood: I'm lookin' at you, mama. Candy: Yeah, you see something you like? Otis B. Driftwood: Maybe. I set my standards pretty low, so I'm never disappointed.
$2.45 in Springfield. Down here we call it the special "Illinois state fair" blend of gas. Usually right before the week of the fair the pump takes a quick jump.
$2.19 to $2.38 on Friday then up to $2.45 for Monday that extra 7 cents curtesy of greedy station owners and unwitting tourists. They raise the prices before the tourists get here for the fair so they are none the wiser. In the outlying areas of Sangamon county the price is still $2.30 to $2.35 Same crap, Same owners, different year. It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
Good call on the G6... I bought a 2005 G6 GT in May and I love it!!
For some people who have season passes with big cars it will cost them enough for gas to a regular price of a ticket admission
Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Gooo
Gas hit $2.95 for regular at the most expensive place around me today. I'm not joking.

That price must be in the city of Chicago, out there it is 30 cent higher. Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Gooo
If anyone wants to know the highest and lowest gas prices around Chicago, here is the site. BTW, $2.95 was reported in Evanston, not Chicago
Never mind I'm wrong she told me it costs $75.00 to completely fill up. That's disgusting!!!
I know that the prices are high, but I don't think we have anything to
complain about, especially people with SUV's. I was doing some research on Gas Prices and we are paying alot less in Gas per gallon than much of the world. In 2004, when we were paying about $2.30/gallon: UK: $5.54-$5.64/Gallon Hong Kong: $5.62/Gallon Germany: $5.29/Gallon You can check out more at: http://money.cnn.com/pf/features/lists/ ... price.html The world pays tons more than us and we don't really have anything to complain about. People complain here in the US, cause there are alot of SUV's and people with SUV's feel that they can complain! I don't! Why? Cause SUV owners should have known when they got the SUV that they'd be paying a ton in gas! By the way, $2.49 here in Peoria.

It cost my uncle $87.00 to fill up his chevy suburban!!  He was really mad!  "There should be a B.O. squad that patrols the city like a "Smell Gestapo". To sniff 'em out, strip 'em down, and wash them with a big, soapy brush..."

Yeah at 15 miles per gallon. Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Gooo
I could be wrong but I thought that in the UK their gas prices are so high because a portion of that is used as medical insurance or something like that.
According to Leno tonight, it's hit 3.00 in California.
In my town it went from $2.50 to $2.71 overnight.... grrrr
State Fair Parade was last night here in Springfield. Gas went from $2.45 to $2.57.
It is still $2.42 in my hometown of only 800 people where the tankers have to travel an extra 30 miles to serve a smaller market. Yet the local gas stations swear the jump in price has nothing to do with the fair..  It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
$2.66-$2.79 in Bolingbrook. Highest reported right now is $2.89 on Ogden and Western. Somewhere in Chicago is probably higher.
Gas is still 2.59 here, although about 10 miles down hwy 100 it's only $2.45. So I will actually fill up going to Six Flags.

I might actually consider an investment in them Hyrbid cars if this dosen't go down soon.
Hybrid - Its sickening what maunfacturers are going to be calling hybrid just to cash in on the new tax breaks. Rather than develop hybird vehicles with larger gains in MPG, they are adding electric motors to act as a sort of horsepower boost, with very little change in MPG. If you ever needed more proof that the automakers are in bed with the oil giants look at this list.
Hybrids currently available Cars Honda Accord Hybrid (V6 with 28mpg) Honda Civic Hybrid Honda Insight Toyota Prius SUVs (all three are larger motors with little in terms of fuel economy) Ford Escape Lexus RX 400h Toyota Highlander Vehicles Expected Chevrolet Malibu 2007 Nissan Altima 2007 Toyota Camry 2007 Lexus GS 2006 Chevrolet Tahoe 2007 Dodge Durango 2007 (Large SUV a hybrid? Come on) GMC Yukon 2007 Mercury Mariner 2006 Porsche Cayenne 2008 Saturn VUE 2005 Toyota Sienna 2007 Dodge Ram 2005 GM Silverado & Sierra 2005 It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
So it's way cheaper in Gurnee?? Looks like I will be doing the same thing then.
Oil prices are still rising, it seems as if every day the price is breaking a new record. I don't think we'll ever see the old prices again. Still, It is a good deterrant to going to Six Flags. 120 miles is a lot of gas for me.
In Aurora last Sunday $2.35, Monday $2.61, Today $2.71.
Mabye next week $3.00. Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Deja Vu, Gooo
Gah. The world is looking good.
I'm in a generation where the priorites of ones paycheck will soon be: -Gasoline -Water -Food -More Gasoline -Clothes -Just a little more gasoline Just wait two more years...it's gunna happen.
