Yeah it keeps getting lower. Hey what do you guys think about them wanting to start using natural gas to make gasoline? Ive heard a little on this. Im going to be following this to see where it goes. BTW Im still on full so I havent noticed anymore prices.

i dont see why they have to go as far as making gasoline from Natural gas. there is one production car that runs on natural gas and you can fill it up at home, or seleted service stations around the USA. bus companies and other transportation services have been using natural gas power for YEARS. do you think the trucks at the Natural gas company of your choice use gasoline????? hell no, they use CNG (compressed natural gas).

right now the only CNG vehicle that is in production is a Honda civic. its $25,000 and it comes in a few colors, but you get zero options... its pretty loaded already. you install a filling station at home (comes with car) onto your Natural gas line and it fills it up from empty overnight. i thinks its a great option for commuters as it costs equivilent to $1.50 a gallon using current nat gas prices on a USA average. so what do you do if you wanna travel?? have fun finding a place that will let you fill up.
thats the problem, no infrastructure.

the CNG vehicle makes tons of sense to me, as my nat gas prices are well below average, because i buy it from a local well. i hate the thought of buying a non USA car, but thanks to many of the USA branded cars being made in mexico, canada or asia, i prolly wont have a choice sooner or later.

Was in Ohio over the weekend...and I got it there for 3.65. I have to say, I was slightly pissed off. Thats not any less then I get it around here. But it did only take me 3/4 a tank to get home. I am talking about a 300 mile drive. So I guess I can't be too mad. HAHA.

A natural gas using car would be good I guess but if I cant fill it up while traveling like you said Bone then it should have the option of running off regular gas then.

$ 4.15 a gal. It sucks, what I don't get is that the next town is about 115 miles away where I live and the gas over there is $ 3.75 a gal!

Thats how it is for me. ^^^ I live on the Eastside but if I hit the highway and go to the Westside gas is like 20 cents less.
