Default Hows gas prices in your area?

I'm getting pretty sick and tired of gas prices, it went from $1.87 - $1.99 (93 octane) within like a week in NJ, what kind of SH*T is that. Anyone feeling my pain? especially when our cars get like 18 mpg, and I refuse to part with my car for a civic, which gets like 30 mpg on like 87 Octane.

I just filled up for $0.95CDN/liter ~ $3.03USD/gallon.

$2 doesn't sound too bad to me...

Hmm, interesting....

All we have here is 91 octane (unless I can find a BP around... they have 92, but I cant ever understand the people they have working there)

QuikTrip rocks!

1.99-2.06 Here in augusta Ga. Needless to say I'm under complete disbelief. Hell if it hits 2.50 here before I buy my Z, I might reconsider buying one. Since the pay around here ain't changing at all to meet the gas prices.

Some states are not as lucky as yours, in Cali we only get 91 octane and it costs ~$2.50 a gallon.

Well my favorite station in Virginia Beach was 209.9 this am. Set a new record last Friday when I filled the Z...$34.00 will now be more this week. Many thanks to our friend in OPEC.

I filled up a few days ago at $1.96 for 93 Octane, but I've seen it as high as $2.01. I guess I'm pretty lucky.

Filled-up a few days ago over here in Palo Alto, CA. $2.61/gal for Cali 91 octane. Sigh On the positive side I did get a $1.00 credit for a car wash. I think Santa Barbara has the record right now. Last I heard they were ~$3.00/gal

I wish you fools would stop bitching about gas. Gas is cheaper now than it was back in the 70's + inflation. Plus the cars back then only got 16 miles to the gallon.
