Gas Prices Hit New Record, Following Oil

By JOHN WILEN | AP Business Writer

NEW YORK -

U.S. retail gas prices extended their record run Thursday, adding to
the pain consumers feel every time they fill up.

Experts predict prices will rise even higher as peak summer driving
season approaches.

Meanwhile, crude oil futures fluctuated as investors weighed crude
oil's latest records and looked to the dollar for direction.

At the pump, the national average price of a gallon of gas rose 1.4
cents overnight to a record $3.357 a gallon, according to AAA and the
Oil Price Information Service.

Prices have set a string of records in recent weeks, and are 56 cents
higher than a year ago.

Retail diesel, the fuel of trucks and other heavy vehicles, rose
overnight to a new national record of $4.045 a gallon.

The Energy Department expects gas prices to average as much as $3.60 a
gallon this summer, but believes the national average price could
spike as high as $4 a gallon at times.

It's really not that much of a problem, just cut back on all the
extravagances like pizza, eating out, junk food, and sell the gas guzzler.

Live like a 3rd world peasant for a change!

I have no problem dumping all the small businesses and supporting the large
gas companies, they need all the support they can get!

Your mutual funds in DOLLARS by the time you cash them in won't buy you
the bullet you'll want to blow your brains out.

Why do they have to do anything, the sheep will do nothing and just keep
paying and making us richer!

There will be a day soon when you think $4 is a real bargain! LOL

I'm hoping for $8 a gallon, the same as across the Atlantic.
My retirement funds are guaranteed, could care less about you working
stiffs.

Their gas is higher because their TAXES are higher - which would NOT
contribute one cent to your "retirement funds."
