Ya I remember hearing predictions that gas was going to go down in the spring. I actually heard it was going to hit $6 by the end of the summer (ie, now) but I was skeptical. I don't think Americans can take that. They'd really just to start to fill up less and drive around less and that would have a domino effect. If people go out less, they spend less in other places.

theres a place by my house thats now $3.59. haha. i was like darn i coulda saved a few bucks in waiting out a day or two...

i guess gas prices are officially going down now alhumdulilah...im glad it didnt hit the so-heard $6 per gallon....i dont think anyone would do useless driving around then and going out of their way to drive around places. and in the summer i think half my tank was used on A/C cause of the heat. u cant drive around houston with your windows down in the daytime unless its actually pretty good (like today!!!)....
