I'm just happy that premium(91) is back under $2 here...

on a similar note, I stopped at a gas station the other day and noticed that they only offered regular, E-85, and diesel. I found it odd considering the number of vehicles that only run efficiently off of 91 :???:

Haven't seen anything under $2 yet, but I did get gas at a station in Alexandria, VA for $2.21/gal. That's *in* the city - I've seen it lower in the suburbs. Total cost of 3/4 of a tank of gas: $18. Not bad, considering in the summer, I was paying over $20 for half a tank of gas.

With the economy the way it is, it's possible that gas prices will continue to drop, though I don't think we'll see gas below $1 ever again, like it was in the late 90s.

$1.75 Around here.

Am I the only one who thinks dwindling demand is not the only reason for the drop?

May not be, but it's definately a significant reason that can't be ignored.

In Canada, we've got about 71 cents a litre. I think I've seen it go as low as 70.X cents. I'm sure it'll be below 70 at some point. I never would have thought it would get this low again.
