 Topic: Gas prices?
Posted: 25 Nov 2018 at 8:20pm |
|
Have gas prices dropped in your area? I went to Longmont, CO,about 10 miles from my house for brunch with my daughter. Gas is always cheaper there so I took 7, 5 gallon cans with me as I wanted to fill up the bale wagon's two 40 gallon tanks for the winter. Drove past the regular place I go, price was $2.38, down about .10 since last week, went to north Longmont to the HF store and the Murphys had unleaded for $2.22! Spent $113. filling 35 gallons of cans plus my pickup. Need to get another 20 gal or so for the bale wagon and to have some around for various gas tractors.

The Paris riots are understandable hmm... 1st a HUGE job benefits package, like 5 weeks holidays in 1st year, full this and that... 2nd a HUGE recent influx in population to support. AKA migrants, aliens, asylumer, what ever you call them, ALL get free stuff... 3rd the 'Paris accord' agreement..
so.... the guv finally looked at it's bank account and said hmm. we need more money(doh !) so, what else raise taxes on gas... Anyone with a wiff of common sense saw this coming ,months, even years ago...
what irks me is that diesel, which is cheaper to make, so I've been told, costs MORE than gas... at any rate I'd rather have buck a litre gas than buck a beer anyday !

Cheaper to make, as in less "refined", a lower distillate.....which would equate to fractions of a penny per unit. But higher in energy content. Diesel 139000 BTU per US Gal, Gasoline 124000 BTU per US Gal, then figure in all the taxes, fees, additives, anti diesel "policies".

re: how is the price determined ?
Probably based on what YOU will pay and for how long... There's supposed to be a huge surplus,so it'll be cheap cause 'they' can't store it too long...'they' cut back on production now, then there'll be a shortage late winter/early spring ,'driving' the price up...so yousave a nickel now, pay a dime later !! Bottom line, it's ALL rigged.... 'they' ALWAYS make money.

As per normal higher than all but Jay 3.49,is the cheap and probably find some near 4.00 in town yet.
They put new tax on gas last year to fix the roads. But probably means new bicycle lanes,and roundabouts that a semi cannot fit in.

Roundabouts are as worthless as teats on a boar hog around here in these congested areas. One person screws up and its all plugged up. Yet they gotta put em in. Idiots!
