[/align][align=center][:-]I don't know if the price of GA$is hurting you, but it's hurting me [X(][/align][align=center][/align][align=center][/align][align=center]Gas has jumped up to $2.80 a gallon according to the most recent figures. So how high will it go this summer? A new government forecast says the monthly average for regular gas will peak at $2.87 in May. As for the entire summer season, the forecast calls for an average of $2.81 a gallon. What do you think of the outlook and the recent rise in prices? [/align][align=center][/align][align=center]

WASHINGTON (April 11) -- Gasoline prices will peak in May and will be a bit lower during the summer than last year, the government predicted Tuesday.

In recent weeks, gas consumption has gone up, not down, and drivers are changing their daily driving habits only slightly. [/align][align=center][:-]Chick below 2 find Cheap Gas or $ecrets [:-]

I call shenanagins. I'm betting regular will hit $3.15 in the summer conservatively and really I wouldn't be suprised if it hit 3.25. Either way I need premium but I think it will only be 14 cents over regular.

I wish I paid what you all are paying for gas. Cheap stuff around here is $3.22 or around there. I feel for wizz, but the rest of you have it pretty good.

PS
The fuel price protection card I got with the MC last summer is going to be really paying off if the state average keeps going up, I get more money on my card! Yay!

The price at my local gas station is at $2.77 right now, I can see it going to at least $3.10 before summer is out. I am guessing it will peak out around memorial day weekend.
