This analyst seems to think that the price of gas will be lower this summer due to a better balance of supply and demand. Michael Ervin sees gas prices peaking at $1.48 and dropping by 5 to 10 cents per liter.

However, the carbon tax goes up by 2 cents per litre starting on July 1st.

Your thoughts on gas prices? Is it going up or down this summer?

Here's the article:

Price at the pump may soon go down: analyst - News1130 (http://www.news1130.com/news/gas%20prices/article/361674--price-at-the-pump-may-soon-go-down-analyst)

[Nabatron]

I would say it will go up! It usually does in the summer...

[shawnly1000]

[TOPEC]

supply doesnt matter, itll only go up, never down

[gdoh]

:fuckthatshit:

147.2 today despite oil going down lately.

[Great68]

[1exotic]

[Not really racist!]

[murd0c]

[Traum]

:fuckthatshit:

It was 141.1 yesterday, and I forgot to fill up (and I needed to too...)

:failed::moderatorban:

[hotjoint]

:fuckthatshit:

Yup makes no sense

supply doesnt matter, itll only go up, never down

:thumbsup:

We're never going to see cheap gas ever again.....

[murd0c]

huh!? which costco has gas pumps?

Poco and Abbotsford right now in the lower mainland but they are adding a gas bar to Langley and other Costcos in the future as well.

[nickmak]

I'm not analyst but I predict it will only go up. Maybe it will go down, but only by a bit. Prepared to get raped at the pump



Haha anal

[JSALES]

I think it'll go back up. I filled up a couple days ago when it was still pretty cheap and when I was on my way home from work, I saw it was at 146.6 :rukidding:

[tofu1413]

WTB: bus pass :fuckthatshit:

[PornMaster]

Wtf at carbon tax, it seems to go up every year. What is at now 8 cents?

[Renthal]

and yet it has been 131.9 here in victoria for a while now

[drunkrussian]

Costco gas for $136.9 FTW

they need to produce their own kirkland gas lol. itll be cheaper better wuality and organic. and ull have to buy 400 litres worth each time

[Harvey Specter]

Doubt it'll go down, I see the prices averaging at 1.40ish for a while. We might see prices drop by the fall around the US elections.

[dlo]

sigh 1.50+ for 91 is horrible.. but it is what it is..

[Harvey Specter]

sigh 1.50+ for 91 is horrible.. but it is what it is..

I poured $40 of 91 in my car the other day and got barely half a tank :okay:

[pastarocket]

It's the high gas taxes that's inflating the prices at the pump. Ridiculous taxes!

Everytime I see my cousins from Venezuela they just laugh at the prices that I'm paying. They pay on average TWELVE cents per litre in the capital city of Caracas.

That is criminal! No wonder my cousins see so many people driving SUVs everywhere. Jeep Grand Cherokee, Hummers, Escalades, you name it. Many people there drive them.

[subordinate]

venezula....then go live there lol. These taxes suck, but at least it goes into the economy/infrastructure.

Cept' carbon tax, effin scam

[twitchyzero]

brb...gonna buy a 30 gallon jerrycan

[pastarocket]

venezula....then go live there lol. These taxes suck, but at least it goes into the economy/infrastructure.

Nah, my cousins can have their cheap gas at twelve cents per litre all they want. It's not worth it for all the violent crime, shootings, robberies, kidnappings and 25% inflation in that country.

[chucki]

I'm working in Ontario right now and its 124.9 today! But sold car in Vancouver... sigh

[Gridlock]

how many more increases to the carbon tax are we going to have?

Fuck! That shit pisses me off. If I wanted a hippie dippy government intent on signing through life's pain and coming together in an organic drum circle while eating granola, I along with many other people would have voted green.

[tonyzoomzoom]

the analyst obviously forgot to factor in corporate greed.

[LiquidTurbo]

Drive one day less a week.

[Slifer]

115.9 here in Alberta :fullofwin:

[mercyboy]

i miss the $1.25 back in First Jan of 2012 where did that go:okay::okay:.......

[Qmx323]

i should replace my O2 Sensor soon.

[1exotic]

easier said than done

I get even less then half a tank...
easier said than done

:werd: it's become quite impossible to drive less .

[punkwax]

It was 127.9 the other day in Abbotsford. I was pissed because I filled up at 142.9 to get there... my own dumbass fault lol

[Gnomes]

If only the people create a fuss and referendum against the carbon tax back then instead of the HST....

[hotjoint]

stupid fuckin carbon tax

[dovo]

148.. right now..

[bloodmack]

abbotsford gas prices :fullofwin:

[hongy]

Fuck. 160$ for 94 combined with an average of 17l/100km. God damn it.

[2damaxmr2]

1.10 in Alberta.

[hirevtuner]

just filled up at point roberts: $1.25.9/L for premium

[tofu1413]

lol. jacking up carbon taxes so those CEO schmucks could get a bigger bonus year after year.

dont worry though, those schmucks are should get a price hike on services for them, just because we know they are ceo's of translink or w/e, just to let them have a taste of their own medicine. BS. all BS.

[nns]

I was just browsing street view on Google maps, and caught a picture of a gas station. 104.9 back in 2009. How far we've gone.

I remember when I was a kid and my parents would fill up at around $0.30/liter. This is back around 1994.

[CL typeS]

where do u guys fill up in point roberts? i know the first gas station you pass is a really ghetto one, then there is chevron and shell but their prices dont seem that much better

[nns]

LOL, I passed the first station you're referring to today for just about the same reasons. It didn't look trustworthy. I went into the Chevron. 122.9 vs 119 something at the offbrand gas station.

[bartone]

Canam? I always fill up there and its always been fine

[Spectre_Cdn]

where do u guys fill up in point roberts? i know the first gas station you pass is a really ghetto one, then there is chevron and shell but their prices dont seem that much better

Texaco - it's the same gas as Chevron, but about 3 cents cheaper/litre.

[goo3]

:werd: it's become quite impossible to drive less .

Car pool?
Drive a shittier car that sips gas?

Maybe not for you in particular, but as long as nobody's willing to switch to some other alternative, gas companies can just charge what they want cuz ppl will buy no matter what.

[mercyboy]

it's just getting to expensive to live in B.C pack the bags boys next stop ALBERTA :concentrate:

[TypeRNammer]

where do u guys fill up in point roberts? i know the first gas station you pass is a really ghetto one, then there is chevron and shell but their prices dont seem that much better

Lol can am, it's not that bad. But it's kind of pricey now...1.17. I usually just go down to the texaco which is just 2 more cents.

[Great68]

Fuck, I had to fill up in Vancouver on the weekend and pay your overtaxed mainland prices.

94 Octane in Victoria is the same price as 87 in Vancouver.

I think it was around 1998 when Arco tried to muscle in to Vancouver and caused a gas price war, and it went down to about 39¢/L.

[Jayboogz]

Where the fuck are these analyst someone needs to give em a swift backhander to the face

Without going into to much detail, my work requires me to drive. Although my family is looking to replace my sister's car with something more economical, but we have yet to find one we can all agree on. If only the new 2012 civic drove like my dad's old 93 civic, would be on that shit so fast.

[see.lai]

gas is 148.0 in vancouver?!?!

[tofu1413]

alright. making a point roberts run. whos in? after 9 gas run.

[roastpuff]

Texaco for me. Same gas as Chevron, and they have a pretty good store... the beer selection there is awesome!

Also the lady is super nice. We chat for a bit before I go back, and I always get the free cup of coffee they give you when you fill up. :fullofwin:

[shawnly1000]

Where the fuck are these analyst someone needs to give em a swift backhander to the face

Googled the analyst in the article... he's one of two in one of the companies and I think it's his company or he has some ownership ... :fuckthatshit:

Googled some of his previous media mentioned predictions :noob:

[kwy]

[Alatar]

I've seriously been eyeing a Ruckus lately.

[Splmash]

Gas light was on and it was $55 to fill up half my tank (Camry). Seriously ... 135 to SFU for the rest of the summer.

I'm pretty sure you're allowed to bring back 25L

[hchang]

I was there around 1030 am

Mt Lehman, Clearbrook, McCallum and Walmart area were all 127 yesterday when I was there

Went today and it™ was 138.9 everywhere... If you have time go down Fraser Highway towards Aldergrove. All the gas stations there were 128.9 today.

all depends on your luck and the border guard, sometimes they wont tax you sometimes they will. I got a fuckign asshole one time who taxed me for $100 sth worth of stuff and other times they just let you through
