QPlady: Answer to your question it is OPEC not the USA this time driving the prices up. We are no longer the gas hogs, but China is. They are far worse than we are. But....we have reserves in the USA we haven't even tapped. The President of Venezuala is threatening to push for the crude to go at $200 a barrel, if he gets his wish expect $6 a gallon by early spring. I got a yahoo news alert about that. http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20071117/wl_mideast_afp/oilopecsummit7t...

I will NOT pay that much for gas. I will buy a buggy and have my horses trained to pull it and park my truck until it is time to buy hay. I've already heard a couple of the Amish families (not the traditional ones) here talk about bringing the carts out of storage.
