    You can get a SUV real cheap now. I've heard some dealers aren't even taking them as trade-ins.

    Price of fuel in Australia is escalating. The poor truckies are feeling it for diesel prices. Many are out of work because they can't afford to fill up.

    Why don't they increase the freight charges and pass on the costs to the customers?

    Funny thing is that even though the oil price is still rising, in my country they lowered the prices a little bit the last two weeks. Hope they'll drop even further :)

    In my country, Oil Production and Distribution companies have been nationalized, and they are on the brink of bankruptcy. They have a loss-sharing agreement with the government, where the government subsidies fuel, massive subsidies I'd say, and the poor oil companies have to bear the losses.

    These companies don't haVe enough cash in hand to last a month. ANd we all know buying Oil is cash intensive. I hope all this mess if figured out soon, else of Oil distribution companies start going belly up, then its gonna be "CHAOS"

    My datacenter prices nearly doubled as a result of electricity surcharge, a new item they introduced recently. Everything seemed a nightmare, money is not what it used to be. It buys less and less things.

    Supplies are tight except for 1 million barrel per day field that will come on line next year in Saudi Arabia. Price could hit $170 by later next year.

    Brazil's state oil company said (November 2007) that it has discovered
    between 5bn and 8bn barrels of recoverable light crude in an ultra-deep field off the coast of Rio de Janeiro, an amount that could help transform the country into a major world oil exporter.

    Then there's another smaller 700 million barrel oil field in Brazil that was found in 2005. It will be online by 2011.

    According to Wkikpedia, Ghawar Oil Field in Saudi Arabia has about 71 Billion barrels of Crude Oil remaining in reserves. It produces around 5 million barrels daily, i.e. 1800 million barrels a year. That makes it (1800/71000) x 100 = 2.5% of total reserves.

    If we assume similar production cap on these new oil fields, then for 8 billion barrels of oil, the production could be 2.5% of 8 billion = 200 million barrels a year, i.e. 5,50,000 barrels of new oil everyday by 2013.

    How long until we run out of oil, considering the ever expanding usage and pumping?

    If Peak has really been reached, then even a small decline in production would quadruple the price of oil, coz everyone needs it for the smooth functioning of the country. Its now a gamble. IF we can shift to alternatives quickly enough, the world moves on. If not, then the problem could cripple the planet.
