The gas stations here have already started gouging because of Hurricane Ike.
This is ridiculous.  One local gas station was charging $3.57 at 10:30 this morning. At noon today, that same gas station was charging $4.89/gallon for regular unleaded! There are reports of $5.00/gallon gas in other parts of Mississippi.  Last night I paid $3.55 for gas.  I''''''''m sure glad I filled up then. There''''''''s another reason I''''''''m glad I drive a 4cyl Accord!
How can these price gougers sleep at night?

I was reading about this on my F150 forum, these station owners should be locked up. Im glad I have a 4cylinder Accorrd but I still have a F150 that gets 9 mpg and the wife has a Tahoe.

Yeah, I have heard on other forums that gas jumped $1.50 due to Ike. I''m surprised that with the previous hurricanes of Gustav and Hanna that gas was still dropping, but now with Ike 2 weeks later it rises that much.


Up here south of Chicago, it went from $3.55 to $3.89 in a day.

Whats messed up is that gas open today at $94 a barrel so the station owners are just taking advantage of people needing to move to safer locations.

in florida it''s bad to, one station had 3.79 and the same night it was 5.15  , people sat in line for 2 hours to get gas fearing there would be none for a week, i laughed at them and called them morons for waiting for gas like that, they said oh you''ll be sorry when you can''t get gas for a week, guess what, we have had no shortage of gas, glad i didn''t waste 2 hours waiting to get gas
