It is very simple, gas is taugh in a econ class as one of the most inelastic products that exists... this means that as price goes up the sales stay nearly the same. So what if nobody buys it for a day, we all need to buy the next day, or the day after. If you want gas companies to choke on their stockpiles get every SUV owner getting 7 miles to the gallon driving by themselves to get a Prius....

I pay 2.99 from chevron for 91. F*cking 10.4:1 compression. Oh well, if we were worried about gas mileage we wouldn't drive V8s

I've seen it as high as 3.27 on the peninsula but since I don't drive that much I haven't been shopping for it either.
