Author	Topic:   Two Pieces of Good Economic News
Jefecinco	posted 07-02-2012 07:22 PM ET (US)         While I was out running this morning EADS' Airbus subsidiary finally formally announced they will begin assembling there A319, 320 and 321 narrow body aircraft across Mobile from us at the former Brookly Air Force Base. This afternoon I stopped to fill the Titan's gas tank preparatory to a two week trip to the shore after the 4th. The price of the e-10 sold at Walmart's gas station was $2.99.9 per gallon. I did not expect to see gasoline below three dollars again in my lifetime. Butch
Commander Coo1	posted 07-02-2012 07:37 PM ET (US)             I am ecstatic, over by me gas is now $2.67 for 93 gasoline with none of that ethanol stuff in it! last week it was $4.16 for the same thing.

contender	posted 07-02-2012 10:37 PM ET (US)             Paid $3.60 for diesel yesterday and two days ago $3.19 for gas (for the wife's truck) Ft Lauderdale area.

2manyboats	posted 07-02-2012 11:21 PM ET (US)             Regular gas is $2.85 and diesel is $3.19 here in Gautier,Ms
Moose	posted 07-03-2012 07:34 AM ET (US)             Last Tuesday (6/26) I paid $5.06 per gallon in Cedarville, Michigan for 89 Octane ValvTech. Two days later I paid even more per gallon in Hessel, Michigan.
flippa	posted 07-03-2012 08:48 AM ET (US)             I paid $3.19 yesterday for 87 octane in the Boston, MA area. I haen't shopped around, but I have heard that one of the no-name stations near me was under $3.00 per gallon
masbama	posted 07-03-2012 09:11 AM ET (US)             Let's hope Austal(CEO quit) and TK(for sale) hold tight. I've heard rumblings that are not positive. $2,.89 @ Murphy in Mobile.
K Albus	posted 07-03-2012 09:50 AM ET (US)             I paid $3.339 for regular unleaded in Michigan (on land) on Saturday. I was optimistic about lower fuel prices coming our way for the rest of the summer. When I needed gas again on Monday afternoon, the price had risen to $3.599. So much for optimism.
2manyboats	posted 07-03-2012 11:44 AM ET (US)             The way it works for me is I buy fuel and as I leave they lower the price. I put 180 gal of diesel in the big boat at 3.75 per gal and the next day the price was under 3.50. So if you want fuel cheap just make sure you are in line behind me.
gusgus	posted 07-05-2012 04:45 AM ET (US)             Just wait, late October the price will be historically low. How do I know? It is an election year.
