Funny you say that....my mother says the exact same thing. I totally agree with her. They will keep allowing gas to jump up in price in large increments to only fall a fraction of the way back down until we are at $5/gal. She figures once we hit that mark that it will stabilize for a while any way.
If you think about it, what better way to not-force people to buy more fuel efficient cars - to lessen our dependence on foreign oil and to reduce CO2 emissions.

So to minimize the shock when prices go down they do it a penny at a time very slowly, that's real considerate of them I feel.
Somehow it never goes down as much as it went up, strange that.
