Crude oil barrel price v.s. at the pump price?

Is there a way of calculating what is should be at the pump?

Im so excited that months later after all the complaining we all have done gas/diesel prices are slowly coming into check.


Seems with crude oil around $53.00 a barrel shouldn't it be close to .99 cents for a gallon of diesel at the pump?


Do the oil tycoons speculate wether the prices will continue to fall or raise? With winter coming I can only guess they will go up for home heating oil season.?

I have been saying this for a while............. Our crude prices do not reflect pump prices at all.

You thought the oil companies made profits last year. Wait till this year!!!!!

Gas prices are dropping faster than diesel.
