Amazing - the price of crude oil hovers around $110-113 and even pump prices are slowly inching down in the US. Even super unleaded is at three dollars ninety-nine and 9/10 cents (Annapolis, Maryland.) I never thought I'd see all 3 grades of gas for less than $4/gallon before the Labor Day weekend. And diesel is practically in nosedive: $4.40, down from $4.85 a month ago!
All these decreases are of course relative: a year ago gallon of unleaded sold for $2.70 and diesel was selling for $2.86...Not to mention that on August 17, 2004 (measly four years ago!) the barrel of crude oild cost $46...
