So far, the perceived gas price increases have not had any discernible impact on new-vehicle buying patterns, at least with regard to the size of the engine.

I would not be surprised to see continued price increases at least in the short term. September could be an unpleasant month when it comes to fuel prices.

Prices are high, but without those price increases we would not have seen the 20 percent decrease in industrial gas demand that has occurred over the past five years. One by one, industrial gas users are either shutting down or switching to substitute fuels.

The price premium is eventually going to have to be adjusted. It looks like they're pushing against a threshold.

It should be considered that increases in the mill price of steel have only a small impact on the overall cost of the project.
