Prices have dropped below $2 per gallon several times recently - where I live, anyway. I filled up BOTH cars just last week when the price dipped down to $1.84.

Yes, it's only about $1.94 per gallon where I live.

Not if it is any way to reflect the environmental damage that it is doing. Cheap fuel encourages bigger, thirstier vehicles.

Its £4 per gallon in the UK!!!!!

In South Texas, it had been below $2 for several weeks, until a few days ago when it came back up (sigh).

I will risk being unpopular. Your GAS IS WAY TOO CHEAP and should go up steadily. (Not a huge amount overnight - that would be too much of a jolt - maybe 10 to 15% per year above the inflation rate). People would not like it. The effects of global warming they will not like even more and that will affect everyone not just Americans Its about 90p a litre in the UK. Thats about £3.40 for an Amercian gallon -> or over $6.60 a gallon. (Note its over $8 for a UK gallon). Unless Global warming is proved to be false, which I very much doubt then I hope your prices go up and up. $2 a gallon does not encourage Americans enough to buy cars with sensible fuel consumption. It does not encourage cities to build good rail / tram / bus links. In England we all moan about the high prices - which is mostly due to tax. However 1) it encourages people to be more green - buying more fuel efficient cars, using cars less. and also that money means other taxes can then be less. Our other taxes are way too high... But if people want the government to be able to spend money, they have to pay it in taxes somehow.

Where I live, not for a couple of years

Alabama, between $1.95 & $2.05 Fluctuates daily

IT IS 2.46 HERE AND i DO NOT SEE IT GOING DOWN. I live in one of the highest taxed states.

E85 is around 1.85 here :)

I don't know will they ever drop below a dollar again. Probably not but I do remember when we could get it for 90 cents a galleon. Oh I'm so old.

In Brisbane Australia it's 96cents per litre. A gallon is 3.7854118 litres. So technically it's expensive here.

Do you remember back in 80's when candy bars were 35 to 50 cents each? then, a supposedly deadly storm destroyed the sugar cane crops in Louisiana and this pushed candy bars to $1.00 each. well, the next year, the sugar cane crops were back in full bounty, but guess what? candy bar prices did not go back to 35 to 50 cents each. instead, they remained at the $1.00 figure and still there today. why? corporate greed. the deadly storm was just an excuse to raise the price of candy bars. there were other countries that had ample crops of sugar cane to use, but the storm was the excuse that manufacturers used, not the lack of sugar cane. I hope you can compare the sugar cane storm to gasoline. once gasoline manufacturers reached the price they were seeking, for a gallon of gasoline, the general price has remained the same and probably always will. again, corporate greed. Every noticed that when a holiday is coming or summer vacation season begins, gasoline mysteriously begins to rise. my wife calls its price gouging or that word again....greed. Gasoline is like a candy bar. both are luxuries and necessities to the public and the manufactureres know this. they will always continue to line their pockets with our money. Manufactuters know the love americans have for their automobiles and that we all have a sweet tooth. No, the prices we use to know and love for gasoline are a thing of the past. Anyone want to buy a good, cheap bicycle and a slightly stale snickers candy bar? The Price Is Right!

I sure hope so. i aculay think that it will

Well i guarantee you that the gas will go up again. By the time we are wasting all this gas, there is a possibility that oil will be permanantly destroyed because we are running out. Soon to be we will iether use all hybrid oil and the prices will be more expensive. But then again that still uses oil which means we might have to find a different way to use transportation or fuel for our cars

Can't say I do... we were lagging pretty far behind the rest of the world as far as a price of gas and now the oil companies have realized that they can capitalize on Americans' unquenchable thirst for more, more, more!

no government is to corrupt and people just want to get on with their own life styles to care what the prices are.

yes, maybe for a short period of time in certain parts of the country.

Crazy Americans... You think your gas is high? In South Ontario, it hovers around $1 average throughout the year. (Lowest around $0.70, highest around $1.30.) That's in litres, of course. We're paying almost double what you are!

The short answer, not very often or for very long. When gas prices went up, some democrat officials were quoted as saying that gas prices should be taxed higher to keep them at that level to reduce the damage to the enviroment from fossil fuels. Based on the assumption that consumption would be reduced, and transportation alternatives would be more financially attractive.

Of course it will, one day when gasoline becomes more and more obsolete and then maybe it will be less than a gallon of milk.

Not the way the Iraq war has been as well as global demand for gasoline.

In virginia, the gas prices are about 2.50 or more a gallon... i hope it goes down... it hasnt dipped to the $2 mark in a long time where i live

that can happen, but .... after u find a time mechine 1st ^ ^

I don't know being a Brit but I do know that the dpllar dropped below 2to the pound yesterday. Does this have any bearing on your predicament?

In California, I have more chances of winning the lottery than the gas dropping below $2.

I saw gas for $1.98 last month. Sure, why not?

no

We're consumers it'll happen when we run out.

Only if the US dollar strengthens and India and China reduce consumption/demand.

I Think that gas prices will start to drop if the United States government stoped screwing up, because The United States government is bagging for money so they jack up the prices of gas. It's easy for them to do this and they will make a fortune on this because just about every Amarican is buying gasoline. And the Stupid little green peacers arn't helping the fact ether with there so called new and improved highbrids that are harder on the environment as it is and I can tell you why. The batteries that are created are made out of nickle that is very harmfull for the environment so there for every hybrid invented is acually defeating the perpose. And besides it ruens the meaning of cars because cars are ment to run on gasoline not batteries. Canada doesn't really nead the money as bad as America does they just go with it beecause they wan't to make as much or more than the American government. SO SMARTEN UP JORGE BUSH!!!!!
