«Pennies,» one of them states.

«Gas should cost 100 rubles,» another jokes. He«s joking, right?

«If they raised gas prices, it must be necessary,» a site visitor believes. «Cars are practically driving up trees already. I won»t be upset at all if people use cars less.«

«It»s strange that they sell fuel oil under the guise of gasoline. It«s time to sort this out,» complains a Ufa resident.

«I wonder why the price of second-grade fuel is so low compared to gasoline?» wonders a motorist.

«It would be good to track the dynamics of gas prices to understand how drivers and businessmen should act,» a reader concludes.
