(17,984 posts)That doesn't sound bad, I know. However, considering that is a jump of $0.70 in four months, it's a big deal. I'm worried that it will get much worse as the summer progresses.

(21,776 posts)Historically, gasoline prices are higher in spring/summer than winter.
If one looks at a commodity spot price chart for Gasoline RBOB (Reformulated Blendstock for Oxygenate Blending) over the years for seasonal tendencies, theyll find that In the lead-up to summer (April/May/June), prices tend to rise in anticipation of peak driving season. Prices tend to fall in the winter when inclement weather keeps consumers off the roads.

(17,984 posts)That was the last time I can recall gas prices being very high. It looks like we are just about there again.
Remember coop gas: buy in at that day's price and only pay that price from then on? I wonder if they will start that again.

Well republicans can shove it, because Americans care bigly.
