At $4.41/gallon I think I'd pick-up a motorcyle or moped or something and drive the Dak on rainy days!

Man, I'd kill for $3.35 again. We're up to $3.55-$3.59 per gallon here in Lebanon (home) and Mechanicsburg (work)...it's painful....went up 20 cents this week.
Hey! Are you stalkin me? jk haha Not to change the subject but where are you working at in Mechanicsburg
I work at Messiah College in Grantham...near Mechanicsburg...I almost always say Mechanicsburg or Camp Hill when people ask what town I work in, because no one's ever heard of Grantham.

Gas has headed up another nickel in the last 24 hours or so...nearing $3.65 in some places. Surprisingly, the PA turnpike is the cheap spot right now, at $3.56.

I actually can about see the college from my office building. I work in the Industrial Park. I am a transplant to the area though I know exactly where it is. I tend to pickup on the area layouts pretty fast.

The only problem with the cheap gas being on the turnpike is, if you dont need to take it, it kinda defeats the purpose of paying the toll just to get the gas9 cents cheaper

You know what peisses me off the most about these gas prices is when the cost of a barrel of oildecreases by we will say 5 bucks, which means its like a 9-10 cents a gallon change in price, these damn gas stations never change it by that much, usually they only drop it by5 cents. So that meanswe are also getting gougedon the retail end. As soon as the price of oil goes up thoughtheyincrease it by 9-10 cents, WTF! Why dont they flucuate as fast on both the increasing and decreasing ends. Its a one way street.Get the vasoline out boys, we are gonna get it up the **** some more!

Nice...I didn't realize you were that close. We may have passed each other on 11/15 and never even knew it!

I live in Lebanon, so it's easiest for me to hop the turnpike to run home. Having turnpike gas prices cheaper than everyone else is rare, though...usually those rest stops are the stations that gouge you the worst...they're regularly 5-10 cents higher than everyone else.

I hear on the news that gas price relief is on it's way...not for the summer, but they're thinking prices will drop significantly by late Fall '08 or Winter '09....to about $55-70 per barrel, compared to the $120/barrel now. I'll believe when I see it...but even $2.75/gallon gas would be awesome right now.
