Just saw on the new in fresno cal. unleaded gas is $3.01 a gal. Here were I live in GA it is $2.44 a gal.
How about you
 
The low here in Ma. is 2.44 a gallon for reg..up to 2.59 in places..They say to expect 3.00 a gallon by Memorial Day...and upwards after for summer...

The days of cheap gas is over now...now that oil companies see huge quarterly profits like they have been ..why change since we need gas...they know we have to buy it

Al
 
O jeez, that old summer rising gas prices gag... i specifically remember last year, exactly at this time, all of the economic analysts were predicting "over $5 by the end of the summer". this is their job, to exaggerate any form of the truth and make everything dramatic. Mark my words, gas will NOT go higher than $3.50 in Florida for the rest of the year.

save this thread so when the time comes, we can all laugh at those news guys.

granted yes, elections are over and the rep. didnt get what they wanted with their gas price cuts, and a litte gas increase was expected. but its not going to be astronomical guys.

Let gas be $1.00 per gallon. :awesome: Im the MAN
I was currently paying $3.35 In Sacramento, CA for Chevron premium.
 
I don't know, like 2.50 for regular or something? Not sure, don't pay attention b/c cheap gas or expensive our trucks have large tanks so either way its a nice fill up bill lol. And my truck is tuned for premium with its mods. The weirdest part is the diesel prices, if anything it should be the cheapest as its in crude form, the refinery processing is what adds alrge cost to gas, yet for the most part around ehre diesel is as much or sometimes more expensive then premium.
 
I payed 3.29 for reg. chevron the other day. I think i'm going to have to stop doing the once a month chevron thing, since i could have gone to costco in santa cruz for 3.12
 
Last night it was 3.13 for regular at shell. I think I heard San Diego has the highest prices right now. Except for maybe ^^.
 
2.33 right now Charleston/Summerville does pretty good on gas prices.
 
Over $3.00 in Visalia, Ca.
There was one station that did not raise their prices (still mid $2), and had cars wrapped around the block.
 
Gag me. 3.05 for regular, 3.30 for super.... of course, I need and guzzle super. Vette, mine anyhow, gets 13.1 mpg overall.....
Hoping prices drop!

Tie a piece of 2x4 under the gas pedal so it doesn't do down all the way. Best gas saver ever..

Somethings wrong, my friend has a C6 Z06 with LG head cam package, agressive tune etc, get's better mpg then that driving hard in the city. Suprisingly his mpg on the highway didn't change, though it has a shitload more power now lol.

Don't go by the computer, average out a couple weeks manual calculations, my trip computer says I get 18 in the city, yeh, I wish my V8 suv got 18 city lol.
