I'm in San Diego where gas prices are usually of the highest in the nation.
What are you paying for a gallon of regular, and where are you at?

13. $1.85 for 87 octane in No. Virginia...
Average, I compare to and from work.

About $1.95 for 89 octane and $1.99 to %2.03 for premium.

If I cross the county line into Prince William, prices are a tad lower due to different local taxes.

I hear Maryland is higher but don't know that personally.

18. don't remind me ($5.50)
Edited on Wed May-05-04 07:01 PM by Kellanved
I'll have to fill the car up this weekend.
€1.20 a liter; about $5.5 a Gallon. (yes the Euro is strong vs. the Dollar, but it has a lot more buying power as well).
Yes, there are a whole lot more taxes on the gas here, yes people are less dependent on their cars .
However, the tax can't be blamed for the rise, just for the actual price.

The price rose about 5 Euro cent this week - per liter that is.

27. So, it seems that "blue" areas are paying more.
San Diego is a "red" area but CA in general is "blue".

31. $1.929 in Eau Claire, WI
We tend to be higher than other parts of the state because the three distributors of gasoline in the area have decided what the price will be. Some would call this "price fixing." I'm sure they just call it "cooperation."

in San Francisco and Colma. Guess which price was in SF.

And Wednesday I witnessed $2.39 regular in Daily City.

But if it pisses more people off at stupid bu$h and further erodes support for the stupid idiot I don't care what the gas prices are.

Remember the Congress on Bill Clinton's ass about opening the oil reserves to lower prices? People in this country are so blinded by their hate they would rather cut off their own noses and bleed on themselves to protect this idiot President.
