    Well down here in the good ol' Southeast Alabama I'm paying anywhere from $2.12-2.19 according which gas station you go to, which I think Raceway here is the cheapest, $2.09

    Costco gas, btw. So about $ .30 cents cheaper than "the big boys."

    Update of Gas Price, $2.15, which on the news they claim the gas mongers was switching to Summer blend which cost more. Now, past couple of years that's all I have heard winter and summer blend of Gas. Could someone tell me what is the difference? Also, why is Diesel fuel so high for Cars and Trucks, to me Diesel fuel is fuel with limited amount of oil in it and to get reg gas from diesel fuel the gas gurus filter out the oil from the diesel fuel and bam there is reg gas. So to me seeing that diesel fuel doesn't have to go through a extra step it should cost less.

    LOL! You think you suffer from B.S. gas taxes? In Ontario Canada, there is roughly $1.50-$2.00 per gallon just for taxes (depending on current price). I like to use Shell 91...in my area, it is "pure" gas without ethanol, and the truck seems to like it and get slightly better mileage. As of yesterday it was priced at $1.449/litre...that works out to $5.49/gallon!

    Do the math of $/mpg. It may be better, but no where near pays for itself.

    @HAIRYTACO I know this is last years thread. But if you use the 'Gas Buddy' app, you can pop in any zip code and see what's up in that area.

    And gas is going back up again.

    I don't have to do the math to know you are correct. I'm in the habit of putting premium in everything I own. My wife's Acura requires it, my Mustang is supercharged and tuned for it, My 2-stroke bikes wouldn't last long without it, and I have a problem paying for gas and getting ethanol...I guess I'm a bit of a d!ck like that. Even regular 87 would be about $4.75/gal at this time.

    Funny lots of State Roads in the Commonwealth have had lots of work done. in the last year.

    Seems I sat in construction on all of them

    Quite a few Bridges are being rebuilt as well

    Don`t forget our Fuel tax also subsidizes Mass Transit .

    Also it’s up to 10% enthanol too ! So it’s not even pure gas at that
