Low gasoline numbers

2012-02-13 19:16:52.852738+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

EIA U.S. Total Gasoline Retail Deliveries by Refiners says that retail gasoline deliveries in November of 2011 were under 31 million gallons a day, compare to well over 60 million back for all but January of 1986, and similar numbers in the late '90s and much of the naughties.

Peak oil, peak transportation, better mileage standards, or just sucky economy?

Charles Hugh Smith digs a little bit deeper. Via the Transportationist.
