I will make this brief. One economist says the prices should be dropping and we could see and average of about 3.50 per gallon across the country by summer. The moment this is published for everyone to read or hear via various media, we see the reaction of the oil companies. BAM!! The price shot up 14 cents per gallon the next morning. It is a no win situation. Like I said once before, big oil is holding the patents on technology that (not could, but would), ease the oil problems of this country in a heartbeat. It would however cut into their profits massively. Here is an example of how back in the 1970's they achieved high mileage. Until some car maker is willing to step up and take a chance at doing this we will all have to watch our driving patterns. Keep your tire pressure equal, proper fluids full and changed regularly, use the cruse control on the highways whenever possible and safe.
Until next time
keep the engine running and the tank full?
