Gasoline is a national commodity. If this continues (and it will), we're not talking about a "slight" increase. I suspect $6 and $7 a gallon gas (if you can get it) is coming, at least short-term.

I understand how supply and demand works. My point is that I only have a 5-mile round trip to work 4 days a week, so even $10/gallon wouldn't necessarily kill me. My question is whether D/FW is on that pipeline and whether I'll be able to get it regardless of price. Or will they have to start moving it to the east coast by truck, affecting EVERYONE?

Every single item you consume is delivered by something powered by gas or diesel, any rise in fuel price will be reflected in rising prices for food and goods. $10! a gallon my not kill you, but you will feel it more than you think.
