Post by G-smashed »

As the price of gas rises to $5 or $6 how will affect your weekend travel to Killington?

Missing the cheap Trump gas years already. Blame Biden every time I hit the $100 cutoff.

Me thinks the emerging higher labor costs are going to be a far bigger factor in ticket pricing than gas prices.

Why do you blame Biden? What did he do? I just read an article that the green folks are all mad at Biden because he's on pace to allow more drilling than any president since Bush.

To the original topic, I don't think the extra $20-30 per trip is going to stop us from coming up to use a pass that cost over a grand and a condo that costs thousands a year to maintain. More likely outcome will be looking into an EV if gas prices stay high.

Are you kidding. We had gasoline independence . Binden purposely stopped the pipeline and drilling w his Executive order. We all knew it would be a huge mistake. Hence we need to import . We are buying I believe 40% from Russia. Yesterday premium grade gas went up $0.65 from lastSunday at BJs so $4.26/gallon. Tonight local stations charging $5.79/ gallon.

Regarding EVs They don’t have the range to get most weekend warriors to Killington from Philly, NJ, NY and CT

Facts are such a terrible thing to waste. Maybe you should get some.

We’re getting screwed by Russia by the price we’re paying for their oil which we shouldn’t even be buying! We should be energy independent as we have everything we need in America.. So In reality BIDEN IS FUNDING RUSSIAS WAR AGAINST UKRAINE BY BUYING RUSSIAN OIL. Democrat politicians don’t care because they want oil to go to 10 bucks a gallon because they have their investments in Solar , wind , electric cars etc..

What's even the point of having a discussion if you don't even bother to listen to what the other person is saying? I posted a link to an article that establishes that Biden has allowed more drilling than Trump. How is it that Biden caused high gas prices? Where do you people get this information? Give me a source or something, because those claims conflict with everything I've read on the subject.
