Yeah the oil company execs aren't hurting to put food on the table I'm sure.  $2.45 for regular here.  How come everyone else is paying less?  Maybe harder to bring gas into the mountains.

I am sure that the oil companies aren't hurting. Not trying to be mean or anything. Lemme see if I can find my report I read earlier. THis is a local paper that has been published online, but I think that it still works.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

10 BILLION in profits and 100 BILLION in total revenue for Exxon/Mobil.  Amazing how when a few Senators talk about a price gouging investigation the prices go down (at least for most of you....It's still up around $2.60 regulap and $2.90 premium here....)
