It was down to $1.35 here yesterday.

$2.39. There's hope. I got tired of waiting, though, and swapped my gas-guzzling 4-wheel drive truck for this yesterday. Ain't it cute?

My daughter has a bug and loves it!

That's good to hear. My first car was an old-fashioned bug back in the day. I drove it into the ground and loved it. I've been wanting one of these since they came out. What kind of mileage does your daughter get?

She gets about 28 on the highway and 22 to 23 in the city!

Thanks. That's perfect! I'd be delighted with 20 around town. My truck got 10 mpg in 2-wheel-drive, and I was afraid to check the 4-wheel drive mileage.

Hope there's room for the furbutts in that VW!

We were on a waiting list for one of these VW's when they first came back, but they kept calling us saying it would be longer and longer. When they called and said it would be two YEARS till we could get the one we wanted we said forget it.

This gas price stuff is funny business - this week on the nat'l news I hear gas prices are on the raise again - above $2. At that point the cheapest stuff here was $1.79 - that very day, which was about 4 days ago, gas started to drop.

Now today it is $1.55 here again - it's so strange how it goes up and down so fast.

Not that I'm complaining! Anything under $2 is great - especially after what we were paying during the summer!

Is everyone else seeing a rollercoaster in prices? Or is it really going up again like I heard on the news?

Yorkiesmiles, you are hearing right. It has gone up over the past few weeks. Gas where I live was at $1.30 now it is back up to $1.79 for regular. But like you, I am not complaining either. Atleast it is not $4.00 now like it was this time last year.

It is strange how yours is going up, while ours is going down

I paid $2.25 a gallon yesterday. Whats up with that, oil is at about $37.00 dollars a barrel. When it was $4.00 it was $120.00 a barrel. Something seems a little of in the math.

That is not sounding very good. They're overcharging us for gas! Like we don't have enough to deal with in this economy.

Yorkielove1 · 02-21-2009, 01:06 PM

Gas is $2.01 right now where i live

MeganS · 02-21-2009, 01:12 PM

$1.69.

*Definitely* not complaining, but I watch the gas prices obsessively (LOL I have no life) and it jumped from 1.29 to 1.49 litterally over night. Crept up to 1.55, and then jumped to 1.73. Then for the last 2 weeks or so it's been pretty steady at 1.69.

haha I must sound crazy right now.
