Default Whats the price of gas this week?

Ok, I see the big news for the this year is the cost of driving, i.e. fuel prices are going up. In as much as I am going to be doing some traveling this year, I thought it might be nice to find out what premium fuel costs are around the country. Hey, you foriegn contributers, how about some price comparisons? Here in Pennsylvania, current ( it's still rising) price of last fill up was $1.79 / gallon. So, whats the price in your "neck of the woods?"

$2.59 at a 76 station on the way to work today.............I don't buy 76!

When I drove to OK (2 weeks ago), the gas prices dropped as soon as I left California.

Less than $2/gal in Arizona.

$1.75/gal avg the rest of the was thru New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma. For Premium!

I even saw name brand premium for as low as $1.57/gal in TX.



Time to get the "Governator" on the case. Wonder how he feels about this BS!!!!

Well, so far I am feeling pretty good about the prices around here, but I live just 60 or so miles south of the refineries in Bradford, Pa., so I would expect lower prices.

Time to get the "Governator" on the case. Wonder how he feels about this BS!!!!
Given the strict environmental laws and the pro-environmental lobbies in California keeping new oil refinery technology and deep water oil pump stations for off loading "supertankers" out, I would expect the "governator" to be more of a "wimpinator". - Ok - so much for my "rant"

Thanks for the info on gas in Arizona and New Mexico. I'll be there this June.

Ouch! - I'll be arriving in Portland the first or second week of June. I had better budget some extra "gas" money! And to those of you who are following my travel plans, I have three kids - one lives in Portland, OR. , one in Pheonix, AZ and the other in Atlanta, GA
