Yep. That sucks. I'll bet that if Turkey decides to go into Iran, we'll be paying around $4 a gallon. The oil companies will use that as an excuse to screw us some more.

Re: Crude oil hit $90 a barrel!

I have quite a few vehicles like some of the others here so I thought I would take the plunge and buy a 55 gallon barrel of oil (I use Rotella T in everything but my HD's). It's only going to get more expensive and hopefully it will last the rest of my life or as a friend of mine said "45 or so oil changes". I have also been buying a few cases of antifreeze and transmission fluid to ease my worst case senario/inflation/shortage fears. sportyrick

Re: Crude oil hit $90 a barrel!

You know what's odd is that crude prices have continued to rise yet gas prices locally have stayed the same. I would say that it just hasn't caught up yet, but crude prices were on the rise a week ago yet gas costs the same.

$2.749 here

Re: Crude oil hit $90 a barrel!

Veggie oil doesn't do my Civic any good and the bus is already parked for the winter. It's probably for the best anyway. With daytime highs hovering around 40* lately I don't think I would be all that successful in running veggie right now anyway.
