For every analysts that says oil will go down there is one that will say it will go up, one of them is right but not even they know which one. Compare gas to milk, both are $4 a gallon and both will be $5 very soon, they didn’t go up as fast as your dollar went down. Try this, drive on the freeway at the speed of traffic, then take your foot off the gas for about ten seconds…..it will seem like everyone just started speeding. The government took their foot off the accelerator as far as the dollar is concerned in an effort to save the real esate bubble, trading one bubble for another. Proving once again that the invisible hand will slap any efforts to manipulate markets and the more they try to save people, the more they will hurt them.

I can’t wait for $5 gas, since gas hit $4, the freeways have been nice. When I watch Mad Max, I think “wow, look at all that open road.”

In my opinion gas prices will continue to go up even if crude oil prices decline. Gas prices are lagging crude oil.

I do believe that crude oil has gotten ahead of itself shot term. Long term oil will go much higher.

What are your thoughts on the gas prices? The family next door just dumped their small SUV for a Camry sedan. They have 3 or 4 kids. So, going smaller is a bit tight in that car.

I was reading on one site recently that noted that we were in a "oil bubble" and that it would burst soon and prices would go down.

Actually ,depending on what type of SUV, they might not have sacrificed much in terms of space. With the Camry, Toyota is doing a great job at making big GM-like cars. Spacewise, it's about equivalent to say a Highlander, Murano, Ford Escape, and even some of the smaller domestic GMC suvs. Gas mileage-wish, I'm not sure if they are really going to get much better gas mileage if (1) the SUV was a V6 and (2) if they bought a Camry V6 which gets 19/28 (I doubt they purchased a hybrid). That's sort of what happens to gas mileage when automakers start sticking 268+hp engines in appliances in the horsepower bragging wars, despite whether consumers really need it.

Me thinks gas prices were unusually high due to going into memorial day and summer season. I'd expect things to start falling this week and next.
