Have you wondered how high gas prices will get before the truckers stop rolling?

With gas prices going up and up, it is taking the price of everything with it. I also understand the stress that the semi drivers are having with all of this. I have watched news stories about small companies that have already gone under. How long can it be before the big companies cant handle it either? What will you do when you cant go to the store and buy things any more?

I thought it would have happened already but then the prices started to go down.. now they are inching up again lol. maybe once it reaches 5 bucks they will all park on the side of the road... but ALL of them have to participate not just a few.

I would think it might start with a few and go from there. The price of everything is going up so fast if it has to go up more Im not sure I can afford it. We really are not that far off of five dollars a gallon. I paid $3.83 yesterday and that was with gas going down.

I think that the international crude oil rates have come down subbstantially and the rates of gas and petrol etc should now come down and the government is adamant not to bring down the rates at all. The high rates of these things are affecting the other commodities also.

The crude oil rates have gone down but I am still paying a ton at the pumps. I dont want to think about how often I drive but now I have to.

I am not too sure that they will stop rolling, but I think the prices will keep going up to the point that we can not afford anything. It is getting terrible.

Things are already getting very expensive and we are not able to afford as much as we used to. If prices keep going up when will my wages?
