How Long Will The Price of Oil Remain This Low?

Oh, Hey, Last week I went through a little town in Wyoming and gas was $1.17 a gallon, and then went through 2 days later and it was $1.02 a gallon. The National report for cheapest gas in the US did not have this listed, but I have a datedphoto on my cell phone :)

Everyone I know is buying up gas so fast, that honestly I don't think there are any empty tankers around. And by the way, a tanker is the Semi that delivers the fuel to the gas station...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news to you, but the transportation industry is taking such a huge hit due to the economic breakdown right now, that trucks are just sitting everywhere. This being said untill the transportation industry picks back up to at least 75% of where it was this time last year we will not see the price per barrel increase. Incase any of you are interisted, If the trucks are not moving, they are not buying the fuel, and there is no demand. Reason for this, People are scared of a depression and they are not buying at the stores, End result is, nearly 50% less from this time last year is being shipped over the road.

Thank you,
