Im getting my license in two days, (If my Sarge can talk DMV into bumping up my test) but I dont think Ill drive at all until I get back from BCT/MP school. Not with this kind of crazy gas prices. Im used to walking...I'll just continue to do so.

$2.25 or so here in Orange County California.  

Business will not be growing with $50+ for a barrel of oil.  This will however incentivize alternate fuel research and industries which is the proper way for capitalism to work (not through special taxes).

I paid $2.319 yesterday for 87 octane at the local BP/ARCO dealer at the corner of Santa Anita & Baldwin, Temple City CAlif(10 miles east of Los Angeles). Other brands are about 10-15¢ higher. And each grade up is roughly 10¢ more per grade.

I have been paying well over $2.20/gal for gas for some time, as my car has to run on Premium. Then again, I drive a car that gets 32mpg on the average. Does not affect me much really, as my biggest costs are rent and health insurance. I also don't have kids to feed(thank you (insert favored higher power)! I will pass on those!) and I don't feel a need to have a big gas guzzling truck, SUV, etc.

In this neck of the woods(sonoma county), gas is 2.41/2.51/2.61(87/89/91). It's not going to go down anytime soon really. I can see a average of $3/gal by next summer at the latest.

Ya doncha know it's all Bush's fault? Bush went to an illegal war in Iraq so that he could steal their oil so that his oil buddies could have all the free oil they want, thus driving up the price of gas!

Definitely see more motorcycle than usual on the fwys. I ride mine 95% of the time. I only drive the truck when I need to haul or carry stuff I can't on the bike.

I've even gone to shooting competitions on my bike. I have the pistol locked up per CA law, ammo and gear in my backpack or tank bag.

I heard that, thank god I put a wood stove in last winter. Plan on stocking up on lots of fire wood. Didn't run the Central Heat last year, not going to do it this winter either. We've got a natural gas ventless wall heater that takes care of the bedroom area of the house at night, lots cheaper then central heat to use it.  By the time the warm air from central heat get's to the far end of the house the air is cold, takes forever and a day to heat with it. Wall heaters can be used to only heat the areas that need it and the air is hot where you need it too.

I haven't bought a gallon of 'regular' in years - car & bikes don't do well with it...

4 hurricanes + gulf -> high oil prices...

Hopefully it will spur more exploration...
