[pg22]

-------------------

$2.19
$2.29
$2.39

@ a Southern California Shell. Even the mom & pop gas stations are at $2.10-$2.15 now. I swear it was not more than a month or that it was $1.50 :disgust:

What's your damage and where are you located?

this 112 mile/day commute is killing me

 

[minendo]

$~1.65 for the cheap stuff in West Lafayette, IN.

 

[AvesPKS]

1.89 for Regular here in Chicago, and that's at some of the cheap places. I can't even imagine what it is downtown...

 

[Azraele]

Ouch.

$1.57 last I checked in VA. Might have gone up.

 

[pg22]

damn, take the bus Dave.

 

[Comp625]

Southern Connecticut

$1.75 @ a Mobil station (Regular-87)
$1.69 @ a Sunoco station (Regular-87)
$1.71 @ a Citgo station (Regular-87)

Just a month ago, most stations were about 20 cents cheaper. Go back around Christmas season and I got gas for as low as $1.49/gallon Regular.

 

[Grasshopper27]

$1.53 at the QuikStop station here in Addison...

Work actually has a program where they will give you $100 (in tokens/passes only) towards public transportation.

However as my luck would have it...there are no buses/trains that go my way or let off anywhere remotely close.

Multiply by 4 and you have the European gas prices.

Now stop whining.

 

[pg22]

Ask me if I care about the gas prices in Europe.

 

[AntaresVI]

$1.69 for reg here, i remember when it was 89c a few years ago when i lived in NJ

That's what you get for having an overly large station wagon as your primary car.

Ah well, I'm gonna go hop on my 24" GT and get some Italianio done. Ciao!

Northern VA is actually $1.73 - $1.74 at Exxon, Shell and Mobil stations. When I head for Pr. Wm. county, Sheetz and others are still $1.57 - but that was before the other stations raised their prices by $.05 a gallon. So, I'm sure the $1.57 figure broke $1.60 before the day was over.

Sure, we're paying less than the Californians are paying. However, it's all relative. When gas jumps by $.50 a gallon, that's the price of the increase across the board. We were used to paying $1.15 a gallong just like someone from California was used to paying $1.60 a gallon. The price jump has been equally damaging no matter where you live.

you should. Maybe one of these days the US will wake up and implement more approriate taxes for gas like they do in the EU and most elsewhere.

Then, every soccer mom in the country won't be driving an urban assault vehicle to get the dry cleaning.
