Dropped more than a hundy filling the sedan the other day on premium, then had to get some more gasoline for the tractors . 89 octane was 4.01/ gallon, diesel even more. What the hell ???? Glad spring is around the corner so I can get back on my bicycle.

Wifey and I had a little ceremony tonight on the way home from the store. We called it our "Pre $4.00/gal. Fuel Up". Our place (Mobil) was $3.95 for regular, but on the way we saw $3.99 at a mini-mart. With the bad weather starting the "dealers" will be sneaking out to the pumps in the dark tonight to click on the four buck mark all in unison.
I think it's about time for a national cry of "Baaaaaa.... Baaaaaa... Baaaaaaaaaaa" as we allow ourselves to be fleeced once again. It's truly a sin how this country has become so complacent in less than 50 years. It's the work of true genius!

Another neat gas related site is Fuelly http://www.fuelly.com/ It allows you to log your mileage and compare to others with the same vehicle or if you are looking at a new vehicle you can see what others with that model are getting in the real world, versus the pie in the sky EPA ratings the dealers will feed you.

I can't help myself . It occured to me that the stuff that gasoline is made from comes from places where ( the sun does not shine ) .

Oklahoman's open, we have plenty of space here.
My wife and I drove down to your fine state last November to visit her family (I'm married to an Okie.) I was amazed at the gas price difference. It was $3.65 /gal at home and the price went progressively lower as we went thru each state until I saw a low of $2.93 in Tulsa.
$3.47 9/10s 1/4 mile from me, cheapest place in south jersey. For some reason it's always a few cents cheaper in my town then any other around me. No complaints about that. A few pennies saved is a few pennies saved. : )
Way cheaper than PA, plus yours is FULL serve.
