Down a couple cents to $3.72 today.
The gas stations are the busiest I've seen in a few years. Almost impossible to drive up to an open pump. Pick a line to wait in and hope the driver doesn't go in to buy lotto tickets. :mad: |
$ 3.81 today at Sams. +.57 for premium.
|
I got a great deal on gasoline at a reservation station in a fairly desserted area of Riverside County, CA on Firday. #5.499/gal. I was so happy.
|
|
$4.89 for diesel yesterday in MD.
|
$3.59 today for reg here.
|
$3.37
|
$3.19 -down the street. Was $3.35 on the 30th
Maybe the illusive $2.99? |
$3.99 in the metro area of MN this morning.
|
Chevron regular 3.45 in central Mississippi. Same station, premium is 4.75. :mad:
|
^^^
$1.30 diff between the two?? Our diff is always 60 cents. I'm just now back from getting gas...$3.56 for reg. |
Why buy premium? Any car I own with knock sensors is getting a steady diet of regular
I've been doing this for years with no issues The other day I was next to a woman filling her Toyota SUV with premium I told her she was wasting $20 she said it ran better:rolleyes: Ok sure |
^^^
Both of my Hondas have bright yellow stickers inside the fuel door. 'Unleaded Premium Only' That's plenty of reason for me. |

Said he had been doing it for years. $3.29 |
^^^ But how can a guy who paid prob 70K or more for his car skimp a few cents on the fuel? :confused:

I gotta think some performance is left on the table even though the car will run. |
Up 4 cents here this morning...
. |
Sams today had regular for $3.51 and 93 for $4.09.
|
|
^^^ Looking at Gas Buddy...I see a bunch of OK stations under $3.
Which you will be tomorrow, I guess. |
My dealer buy price is $3.81 today. That's without paying taxes, freight, merchant services (credit card processing) or armored car fees, sales and use, underground tank storage tax, etc etc. Street price is therefore $5.11 which includes $.87 in fees and cost of sale. Margin is around $.30 which goes to pay fixed costs and return a profit over break even, which is probably in in the neighborhood of 150,000 gallons a month for a full size gas station.
|
^^^ Which state?
|
^ central California. So Cal and SF Bay a whole 'nother matter.

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1660042648.jpg Surprisingly, the price of gas was all over the place in the SF Bay area. Anywhere from maybe $5.11 to $5.95. Shocking for this East TN boy. My local station this morning was $3.49. |
The state tax increase on the gas excise tax, and huge increase on diesel sales and use tax caused pricing to go haywire on July 1. The gyrations are good for the alert gas station dealer. Pricing has settled down now, for the most part.

Last week we drove from Houston to Santa Barbara. As you’d expect prices generally increased along the way. In Santa Barbara there is a 40cpg up charge for using credit. Or if you like, a discount for cash making it 5.71 for SUL.
|
$3.49 for reg here today.
|
$3.25 this morning.
Sooner or Later must be getting close to $2.99. Edit: I see the gas buddy post. |
Not quite. $3.04 at Sam's and $3.07 at Walmart.
|
$5.299 for diesel yesterday.
|
Wow, what a bargain! I can take that 4 week vacation to the Maldives now...:rolleyes:

$4.75 for diesel this morning.
|
$3.48 for reg today. The price hasn't varied much from that for the last week.
If it stays there...I'm happy. |
$3.33 for corn gas regular. I never use that stuff. I get real gasoline which is available here.
|
$5 to add 170 miles of range to my EV.
|
^^^ My Propella will go 60 miles on one charge.
Not sure how much one charge costs me...but it's about the same as charging a smartphone. :D |
Diesel was $4.50.
|
$2.81 for 87 in Henderson K. today and $3.33 for 92 octane. Sams in Indiana was $3.41 for 87 and $4.08 for 93. Going in the right direction, I think.
|
Enjoy it while you can. Saudi Arabia is cutting production because of the Strategic Reserves release...meanwhile, we are quickly emptying the Reserves. What then? Also, what about natural gas this winter?
Now, is there a strategic reserve for bacon and eggs so we can get a dollar off of those. Breakfast prices are now crazy. |
