    Default Gasoline

    Will "cheap" Gasoline be 5.00 a gallon before we purchase our Stagecoach tickets or afterward?

    Good thread rose....
    Yes I heard on CNN...
    That it may hit 15.00 a gallon.
    Friends of mine in other countries are and have been paying 8-11 dollars a gallon....
    So guess we have been too spoiled.
    Wonder how empty the Eldorado's 1 and will be next stagecoach ?????

    I've searched around for the best form of mass transportation and have found that vanpooling is the best. I started it about 7 months ago.

    Just in case you need this info in the future: If you can get a handful of people together, you have it made. It beats buses and trains because it is more personalized to you (drops you off at the doorstep instead of a station miles away, you pick the people, etc.)

    Of course, this will be needed more if $15 comes around.

    thats a great idea...
    In Europe they have car sharing.Saves people around 4,000.00 a year and sponsored by each city .Kinda like a costco membership of 100.00 a year then you use the share care when needed.No insurance paid or car payments..
    I bet the lobbyist will stop that one from the auto makers to the insurance companies...
    We all need to help and I very happy to hear you do your part..
    Great job....

    Can you imagine...I just went to fill my Diesel truck at the 76 station, the dang machine stops at $75, which is not even 1/2 tank! So, I have to re-enter my card and add more.

    IF it gets up to $15 per gal...ugh, my bank is gonna think someone is fraudulantly using my card.

    I just got my daughters honda civic running that I gave her at 16, she now drives a mustange her father got her for grad last year, so the honda is now my put put car...although my step son turns 16 this weekend and it will be his, but for now it is MINE...alllll mine!! No one elses!! nanny nanny...(ok, nothing to be proud of, junkie, blue, beat up...but great on gas! so dont laugh at me when I drive by with my head hung low)

    There was a report today on FoxNews saying that the USA is getting gas for a deal.. In the UK it is $8.00 a gallon. Could you imagine us all pulling up to StageCoach in SMART Cars?..... That would solve any parking problems they might have had...LOL

    It is no secret we have cheaper gas.

    Why do you think that is? Hint: Who owns most of the largest companies around?

    How much gas prices are going up on a daily basis I'm guessing it will be 5.00 per gallon before Stagecoach tickets go on sale.
