$2.49/gallon for regular in Paris, TX (but the bmw prefers the taste of 93 octane @ $2.69)

We just pushed over $2.50 down here in the "cheap" south this week. $2.75 for hi-test. Friggin' insane!

I guess this is what happens when you get an administration full of people with big shares in the oil industry...

Oh well, at least it will make more bike/scooter riders and cause the extinction of of the Mega SUV.  :nana:

It's over 3.00/gal up in San Francisco.  Pandy, you got some cheap gas going for you!  I paid 2.75 yesterday in Sunnyvale.

Its around 2.70/gal in Garden Grove, CA for regular gas  :(.

Around 3 dollars for premium gas (which is what I use for my car and gs).

I think that anyone here in Canada will have you beat.  With the conversions of litres to gallons and CDN to USD, I paid 3.32 USD a gallon for the car (regular) and I paid 3.74 USD for premium in the bike yesterday night.  Anybody in the UK or Caribbean want to raise the stakes?

Go with regular. Not only have I never noticed a difference in any car when I switched between premium and regular (except the Corvette, which only took premium), but my brother's teacher in the auto mechanic program says there is no discernable difference in a standard engine. I'd say our engines are standard. Just get good regular gas, like Chevron or Shell.

He's said some interesting things about oil also (and it backs up my decision to use dino oil in the GS5)

Oh I have to go with premium for my car. I drive a mercedes slk and premium makes a difference ;). I did switch to regular for the gs but when I brought it in for my bike's tune up, the mechanic smelt that right away and told me to switch back to premium. Apparently its better for carb engine type bikes (keeps it cleaner or less wear?).

back down to 2.69/gallon here now

5 years ago, who'd have ever thought we'd say "back down to..." and a dollar amount over $2? Not I, said the fly.

Who would guess: $2.49!

But I get the mid-level octane and it is like $2.55.  My car only holds 9 gallons and gets 30 mpg, though.  Which is nice.
