Remember 3 1/2 years ago, gasoline sold for $1.79/gallon. Hopefully, we will be able to get it down to the $2 range when we release the American entrepreneurial spirit and the new technology of fracking and 3 dimensional underground mapping. She will get the permitting processes streamlined from a decade to less than a year like it used to be. Also people will not have to be concerned about a mud puddle in there yard being declared a wet land. The winners will be the American people and the losers will be the mideast sheiks. Take a look at the recent polls and the direction of the movement of polls. "Most likely" Don't think so.

While $60 a barrel sounds good it would also stop much if USA production too.

Prices are still continuing to drift down. According to Gas Buddy, price per gallon of gasoline varies from $3.54 to $3.64. Hoping the prices drop below $3.00 by August.

I bought 20 gallons at .58/gallon. Yep, 58 cents a gallon. It was some type of promotion from Winn-Dixie, a grocery store chain. It involved mainly moving over some prescriptions over to their pharmacy and buying some groceries there. I put in an additional 33.5 gallons at $3.42 which is about 6 cent above the cheapest places around here. Felt very good. The pharmacy matches the Wal-Mart price, so we lost no money there. We do not have to keep the prescriptions there for any set time.

Geeze, it's going to take forever for gas prices to reach $3.00 a gallon if it only drops a penny at a time. One station drops their price by 1ยข. Several days later another station drops by a penny, etc., etc.. Grumble, grumble.....

You can examine pump price history at the Energy Information Administration : "eia.gov". Here's the URL for a graph that you can take actual prices from at any date:
