So Gas here in Utah is now $3.18

[H2bill]

As has been said, if you're going to sweat the price of gas, you won't enjoy the Hummer. I factored that in when I bought it. The joy I get from driving it more than makes up for the mileage difference I would have gotten with the '07 Tahoe I also considered.

Although the price per gallon may go up even more, I don't think it will just keep going up and up. I believe OPEC is well aware that if the price per barrel exceeds a certain point, then it truly will be worth while for major industry to develop alternative fuel sources and put a real hurt on them. We still haven't got to that point.

As to the constant references to Bush getting rich on oil profits, I don't see it. He's the most powerful man in the world already (why else do the rich want to get richer?), doesn't pay for a thing, has his own 747, and he'll retire a rich man (as did Clinton). So I just don't see the motive. There's nothing stopping you from buying 10,000 shares of exxon or BP and reaping the benfits of an oil dependent country, is there?

Don't understand all the pissin and moanin. Everyone (except me), complains about the price of gas as they are sipping on a liter of water that they just paid $1.50 for. WTF is that all about?

Your wisdom is exceeded only by your youth, Pops.
