Gasoline Prices Are Many With Good Reason

This paper will dicuss the rising prices on fuel over the past few years. It will involve the trucking industry and explain how the rising of gas prices has effected trucking company. Crude Oil prices have passing over one hundred dollars a barrel. This has effected many independent owners-operators. This article will dicuss why some independent owners have decided that it is no longer profitable to drive a truck. Some owners have taking a different approach with the rise of crude oil. The article will discuss how some owners have reduced horsepower in the engines of their trucks in order to increase profit and have also choice to run day routes in smaller trucks.

Electric cars can also save you money because they do not need gas, but people still say that Electric cars are so much more expensive to buy. For example, the 2011 Nissan LEAF SL has an Manufactured suggested retail price also known as (MSRP) of $33,7207, the four door 2011 Honda Civic Si offers many of the similar features for price of %$24,4051. That’s over $9,000 cheaper. But there is a catch, the United states government is offering $7,500 in federal tax rebate for the purchases of a new Electric cars. Many states like California offer an extra $5,000 payment through 2015. That’s a total of $12,500 saving already! In terms of fuel price, if you drive the Honda Civic 15,000 miles per year for five years, the cost for gas would be approximately $10,057. For the same mileages on a LEAF will cost only $3,000

As we showed in part I of this report, Car Size accounts for 75% of the variance in Cost/Mile. Because of this—and due to the fact that the Size ‘dummy’ variables were proven insignificant and thus removed—Cost/Mile basically does the job of the Size variable in this equation. The regression analysis we ran and the inferences we can make from it support the fact that smaller cars cost less to drive per-mile than larger cars, but we are

Many of the cars made today get great gas mileage. A Hyundai Accent can get almost 38 mpg, compared to a Toyota Tundra which gets about 15 mpg. On average a person who owns a tuck would spend about $30-$40 in gas a week, compared to a car owner who might spent $15 -$20 in gas a week. If you have a higher gas mileage, you should be saving money. With all the money you are saving from the gas mileage, you can save up for many different things you wanted such as college or a raining day. Many people who don’t have as much money would enjoy having a little extra money. They could save the money to help them out in hard

When you're driving down the road and that mileage reading on your dashboard reaches 3000 what do you? The first thing that pops in your head is there goes another 50 dollars for an oil change. There are about 450 million cars that travel the streets and roads of the world (Automobile).

I pay $377.00 A MONTH just to get from one place to another. this results in a whopping $4,524 a year! For some they pay less, and for others they pay more. Isn’t that insane. It is like having a extra tuition for a college such as a community school to pay on the side of my regular tuition. Many students struggle doing the same thing but it needs to be done otherwise we would be incapable of getting an education somewhere other than home. On top of those prices many of the stations charge for daily use of the parking lots which is ridiculous. Also say, if your a student who doesn’t drive hen instead of paying for that, you wind up putting much of your money into an uber or taxi every day as

We all know gas prices fluctuate, and some weeks are better than others. Something that will help cut down spending on gas each month, could be choosing to ride with a friend or co-worker to work. Depending on where you live, public transportation may or may not be a viable option. However, if you live in an area where there are multiple options for public transportation, then take advantage of those services and watch your wallet get fatter!

I am a husband and a father of four lovely children. We need a large vehicle to haul all of us around town. And of course I would do anything to keep them safe and I always want to provide them with the best. Therefore, after the birth of our fourth child two and a half years ago, my wife and I decided to upgrade our Ford Explorer to a Ford Expedition. We got everything from the side-curtain airbags to the TV and DVD player. What we did not know was we also purchased a rather large unleaded gas bill. The first time we filled the tank it cost us roughly $35; today it costs us right around $75 to fill the tank. Obviously the price of gas has increased significantly in the last two years. The price

According to the Daily Bulletin, gas prices are the lowest that have been in the Inland Empire since 2008. The gas prices have dropped for fifteen consecutive days all the way down to the current price, 2.72. This means that over the past holiday weekend when traveling, drivers were able to pay less amounts than usual. Stan Drabek, a truck driver who works in San Bernardino said "It only cost me around 40 dollars for me to fill up the truck this weekend, when before it would be closer to 100"

GAS IS TOO HIGH 97% of people are aware that gas is high priced and want it to change. Gas is high priced just about everywhere in the United States. That is why we must make a stand and change the price. Gas is priced too high ,so it should be lowered in price. First of all, gas should be lowered in cost because gas can cause stress on a family that needs gas to go to places.

Gas mileage can be said to be the rate at which a vehicle uses the gallon of gas to cover the distance traveled. It is also described as the number of miles that a vehicle can cover with a given quantity of gas (Holmberg, Anderson & Erdemir, 2012) currently; people are looking for cars that have lower gas mileage. The rate at which a car uses gas to cover specific mile is affected by various variables as discussed in this report. Some of these variables that the report focuses on are the size of the engine, the size of the tires and size of the car.

We've all experienced this before, and for future drivers it is bound to happen. Before driving home after a long day at work, you head to the nearest gas station to find the prices at a hefty $3.59 per gallon. You shrug since the cost last week was a few cents higher, and proceed to fill up your car. With your gasoline capacity at its limit, you drive around the corner only to have your jaw drop when you realize that this gas station's price is thirty cents cheaper than what you just paid for. Then, talking to the empty seat beside you, you ask, “Why do gas stations in the same area charge different amounts per gallon?”

The production cutbacks mean gas could approach $3 per gallon in some parts of the country during 2017.Nationally, gas prices are up 20 cents from the same time period last year. The increase is even higher in Alabama, where the price of a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline is up 23 cents from December 2015.DeHaan said while he doesn't think gas will hit a nationwide average of $3, it's "becoming more of a possibility" in some states.Currently, only two states - Nevada and Montana - have average gasoline prices below last year (8 cents and 1 cent, respectively).(4)

In the not so distant future, gas prices have the potential to hit a staggering $10 a gallon. Government policies also will limit the consumption to each family to a maximum of $250 per month. The cars of this time period have not increased the gas mileage per vehicle to any more than a dismal 20 miles per gallon. Families must find new ways of dealing with this situation and learn to manage only 500 miles of driving potential for the family car per month. The Smith family, consisting of a husband and wife with one beautiful child, proves to be whimsical and creative to manage this. In order to overcome this epic conservation mandate, oil reserves must be replenished or alternates fuel sources must be instituted and made

But not to mention the monthly cost along with insurance, maintenance, and gas. That can leave you with tens of thousands of dollars each year just for your car! With this money being drained into your car, where’s the money for boosting our economy?
