brerrabbitTX Champion Author Houston Posts:1,030 Points:18,285 Joined:Mar 2011	Message Posted: Feb 2, 2013 10:57:43 PM Ignore brerrabbitTX Report Abuse There are advantages and disadvantages to the increase in oil production in the Dakota's. One is the fact that it makes much less premium than the old WTI sourced oil or the import stuff. As a result you will continue to see premium prices seperate from regular prices.

Only one variable remains to solve the equation, raise the margin. Thus in order to bring down prices you should start buying more. Aint that a quandary?

Titanic1985 Champion Author South Carolina Posts:6,283 Points:360,120 Joined:Dec 2010	Message Posted: Feb 2, 2013 10:18:43 AM Ignore Titanic1985 Report Abuse Gas prices are increasing in my area with a new twist. The price difference per grade of gasoline is $.10 to $.14. Add that to changing prices up to four times a day and different pricing for cash versus credit (except non-ethanol which is always the same) and it gets very confusing. The only road sign prices are 10% ethanol 87 Octane Regular and Diesel fuel. It is the case of "Let the buyer beware".
