Yesterday morning the price of gas was $1.049. In the afternoon the price jumped to $1.179
Apparently the reason for that is the uncertainty with Iran. They've stopped selling oil to the European countries like France. What kind of BS is that again? France and other countries buy only a small percentage of oil from Iran. The oil companies are playing and screwing the consumer as usual!
I wish somebody would come out with an alternate and cheaper source to fuel the vehicles that need it. Electric cars are not the answer. They're a joke really. The Volt sells for $40,000.00. Who the hell wants to spend that kind of money to save on fuel? Where is the saving? How long does the battery last and how much is a replacement battery? Besides, you can't use a vehicle like that for long trips. Where will you charge the battery when it is empty? No, electric cars the way they are do not fit the bill.
Maybe we should all go back to horses and buggies.
