theres always that option to drive 1500 miles to the cheapest station.......or buy a round trip ticket to abaco

$3.09 for me at the closest station, which is half a mile away.  Not bad.

what doesnt make much sense is the price difference of regular and premium has never been this out of whack before, 70 cents to a buck difference up here and im sure i can find it more if i look for it

In retrospect, the Range Rover purchase was not my best decision.  

gets about 50 percent better mileage than my slug dakota on winter gas and its almost 100 percent faster. no regrets here

So, you're saying you now get 6mpg instead of 4?

Was getting over 18 on average, now about 15.5 with winter gas. My old Dakota at 125 HP would drop to 11 mpg with. Winter gas. 510 HP with the rover gets over 20 mpg in the summer on the highways. I mostly drive highways.  For what it is, it's not bad on gas. Not sure if the south ever gets this crap gas in the winter but betting not

In New England, everything sucks in the winter. 

not everything, the southerners go home and we lock the gates behind them

I have worked with all the major gas companies and I have to say BP and Exxon Mobile are not very nice people.  I think you have to pass (or rather fail) a personality test to work for them.  But the real problems are way up the ladder.

fishlessman

its like it went on sale at the mobile

bp aint backing down though, havent seen anyone at their pumps in months or maybe it costs too much to change the signs......

Anything to "own the libs".

Except in this case I think all the libs are just laughing.

If McDonalds is in your regular rotation, you’ll never see it.

I have moved from talking about the price of gas to the price of things that give me gas.

I was in California last week and it was north of $5, by the time I got back to Colorado it had dropped to $3.  Thanks Joe.

Down about 35 cents from the high around here. I can hear the change in my pocket now.....did see the prices in the south east were getting better.hows those interest rates on credit cards used to buy gas...23 percent seems reasonable....

Just to add😁 a couple weeks ago we changed to the winter gas blend.  Today's highway mileage was 16.2 mpg,  I get 19 plus mpg on the highway on the summer blend.....bring back the real gasoline without this ecrap and help save the planet😁

Could you please explain to me how the President, or his policies, has that kind of effect on regional gas prices?  I'm really trying hard to understand that.  
Looking forward to your answer.

Congrats on your 30K post!  Your green t-shirt with "Blah Blah Blah" on the front is en-route.

I think Biden waved his magic wand and made states have some independence again, Botch.

If we're going to misplace blame, might as well play along and misplace credit.

Regular was $2.85/gallon here today.

$4.79/ gallon premium here, down from $5.09 a month ago. im surprised the place even dropped the price. theres a cheaper place that discounts now running on prepaid debit cards, maybe that turns into the norm
