Oil above $51/Bbl … What’s next?
#3
Eric - for comparison, what have prices risen to in the past ? For example, we've already been > $2.50/gal in the Chicago area as of 2-3 summers ago (although where Wayne / myself are located in Lake County IL, we're currently at about $1.85/gal)

The most I've paid here in the outer Atlanta suburbs last summer was pennies under $2.00/G, but at that time had seen others pump @ $2.30 in the City limits.
Currently we're also paying $1.80 to $1.85.
The lowest I ever remember it was back in the mid 1960's was at twelve cents per gallon.
I remember dear 'ol dad complaining that fourteen cents was highway ripoff, as we pull our Puma pop-up camper. We went further down the road and found it for less.
I really haven't been following $ per barrel but understand it is pretty much constantly increasing, which hasen't been translated at the pumps yet.
If it's always increasing I wonder who's been paying the difference?
If the difference is being borrowed somewhere then we will likely be in for a big whollop down the road ! (No pun intended)
