Around here regular has exceeded the $3.00 mark. The cheapest was $3.04. The most expensive was $3.13.

$3.20 for regular and $3.40 for premium here today

My best advice when it comes to your Fiero is to "NOT" do any dealings with www.kitcarman.com

$3.20 per gallon (regular) this morning!

That's a kick in the bullocks!

I paid $2.96 for regular in central Texas yesterday and was happy to get it. I commute 50 miles a day and pushing my Fiero at 70 mph is impossible. I love gasoline! I gives my car so much power. As long as I can pay for it, I'm buying all I can.

AAA: Gasoline Prices Back Over $3, Records Loom

Friday, May 04, 2007

NEW YORK — U.S. gasoline prices shot above $3.00 per gallon on Friday, within striking distance of record highs, as the creaking domestic refinery system strained to keep up with rising demand.

Listening to NPR, I had heard that we can expect $4 a gallon, although due to increased salaries, Americans pay about the same per gallon as they did in the 90's. I would assert that the economy is different than it was in the last decade in so many ways this one-to-one comparison is not the best way to look at the situation.

Gas in my area is between $2.86-$3.02 for regular.

Well, in spite of oil closing up yesterday, I got regular at Wawa for 1.97/gal


That dollar jump, 50% increase is a tough adjustment!

Well, a couple places have hit $3 a gallon, and many of them are out of gas right now. I understand it is a temporary thing until the 'new' formula comes out.... but I'm concerned about the ethanol putting crud in my fuel tank. Guess I'll be doing fuel filter changes all around. And what's this about worse fuel mileage?

I did find gas for $2.88 though.

a couple days ago, it was hard to find gas for less than $2.90 per gal. Got it for $2.83/gallon today.



I suppose we shouldn't be surprised. Seems that Americans have short memories, must be sensory overload. The best thing that has happened to me is that my commute to work has dropped from 20 miles to two-and-a-half. That's 35 less miles a day.
Keep posting those prices for posterity!

I'd post the price of gas here but it is changing so fast I melted my number pad. At this rate (using microsoft time remaining to install formula ) it will be in the 4.50 dollar range by june but more likely to be much much higher .

I've been away from the forum for a while, but in the last month and a half, gas has been as high as $3.01/gal for regular and low as $2.67 in that time period. Gas today was $2.87/gal.

No major changes in pricing. I see that prices are down oh-so-slightly right now, about $2.69 per gallon. Up in York County I saw gas for $2.61 and the highest here in Hampton I found was $2.79 this last week for regular unleaded. Meanwhile, I have found prices at the grocery store have increased, meat has now climbed a few pennies per pound (I'm trying to take into account seasonal fluctuations) and produce is definitely up. Automotive chemicals are noticeably more expensive too.

But Petroleum Jelly.... still pretty much the same.
