$90.00 dollar oil does 2 things. It gives a lot of folks more money to spend at the parts counter, and it forces other folks to repair their cars instead of replacing them with new one's.
Been doing this for 30 plus years. It just is what it is...............

People are rather short sighted on things like that. Most people have the tendency to pinch pennies on stuff that they need and spend exuberant amounts of money on things they dont need. "Hmmmm 8$ for charmin instead of $6 for Kroger brand...." "$57,650 is a good price for that truck!"....."$2.15/gal when its across the the street for $2.12????" "Yeah I pay $7,750/yr for my lease, but I killed a 195" buck last yr"
Who again is rather short sighted in this ^^^^?
You're saying the majority of Americans are short sighted because you think the increased amount of money they have to pay is "pretty insignificant" compared to the minority of people who stand to make higher profits.
