Increase in Gas Prices

Hello to everyone, as everybody knows gasoline prices is on the rise. As of right now the New Orleans metropolitan area is paying about $2.06 a gallon for regular unleaded. Gasoline prices could rocket 24 cents a gallon the next few days, as stations across the USA scramble to keep up with big jumps in the prices of oil and wholesale gas. I remember when gas used to be $1.19 a gallon. This drastic increase in gasoline has made many people think twice about buying a car. I feel that with all the technology we have today someone should be able to think of something to repalace gasoline.
