Gas Prices Up, Up and Away

Trine Gallegos reports from Los Medanos College in Pittsburg for this Local Edition segment featuring gas prices on the rise. Was it the summer heat in 1995 or the war in Iraq that caused fuel prices to begin its historic peek at the fuel pumps around the country. Since the 1990's, gasoline prices have never gone below $2.00 per gallon: today we see that they will never go below $3.00 per gallon ever again.
Here are some highlighted phrases from this piece: "Congress hiked 'em up", "war caused prices to go up", "I'm looking for cheaper prices", "their robbing us", "it's killing me", "can't go as far as I had before", "less fuel efficiency", "I'm filling up twice a week now", "Congress might lower gas prices in fall".

Well Drive a semi an choke when you tell the attendant to just put 1000.00 in it. an not fill the fuel tanks.So dont complain about the cost of food. an what ever else you buy.

no kidding. Everything is going up, but fuel sucks right now. What's interesting about this clip - it was shot in 1995 when gas prices were reaching $2/gallon. Today people are paying about $4/gallon. Glad I have a motorcycle.

This is vintage joke. He used to fill up his tank for $12 and now it's $17. That's funny. I wish I could put $17 in my tank to fill it up. Hilarious. $17 don't even give my car fourth of a tank. lol

YEah this weekend I'm buying a toyota Prius 45 to 50 miles to the gallon an funny thing is that when you register it you pay more than if it was a standard due to the loss in fuel revenue tax here in oregon atleast talk about a line of crap.
