Default $100 Barrell Oil By end of next week??!!??

I've been following (CNBC) the price of Oil, which last week closed at around $89/Barrell and now (9am Friday CST) around $96.41!! Big jump for one week and as we head into Spring it'll continue to increase and I wouldn't be surprised if by next week it closes at $100 or near it. Sure glad I got rid of my V8 4x4 Toyota 4Runner which got 13 MPG.

Need fewer troops to support.
Drive a hybrid.
Best tank 71.65 MPG.

Before this car I spent two years learning hypermiling on my 2004 HCH1.

not exactly. it's been high 80's and low 90's but it's trending up and as anyone knows $100/barrell is the "magical freakout number" for those with suv's etc etc. As soon as it's at 99/100 people start panicking......

Yes, that is true, but it did hit the $100/barrel one day, and it has been in the 90's since. H
