Another reason to not cross that border.

67.76 for just over 18 gallons.....
time we start pokin some holes in the ground....;)

on another note, not sure why, but the other day, i got gas, and the needle on the gauge was straight up half tank. 220 miles later, my light was ON. and that was in town driving, and not much highway. summer formulation maybe?? will see what this full tank will do that i got today. got gas for 3.67....supposed to go up to 3.95-4.00 tonight. gas station attendent gave me a heads up...pays to be a regular :)

My last two tanks were over $80 (running premium for the S/C). Serious OUCH! It got me off the fence on a Mini Cooper S that I was considering. Faxed in the buy order this afternoon. Will post picks next week of the latest addition to the stable...

$12.00 to fill up (3 gallons) for my sunny day vehicle, a Piaggio MP3. Gets 65 mpg. VX is sad and sitting in driveway most days now.

I just gassed up the Rex last night for $45 at $4.01 a gal (Ultra 93).

Whew, luckily, the VX only sees weekend driving and fill ups once every 3-4 weeks.

$1.25 to "fill" my RAV4 EV. :-) Of course, if it had been "empty", it would have been over $2.

$82 for the Trooper last week. (I last filled it in March).

Of course, to be fair, I looked for the most expensive station in the county, then bought premium. I could have filled it for $74 if I had shopped around. But my next fillup will probably be in September.

Gas here just went up to over $ 4.00 for premium. Regular around $ 3.80
I still have some in the tank and will have to fill up this weekend.
Will have to give up a round of golf just to fill the tank.

Well, Yesterday filled up for 70.00 big ones..93 octane..17.5 gallons. I can careless about the price of gas... when I am filling up my baby..but when I fill up my Trooper it really pisses me off.

We are being taken for a ride..by the big oil companies...look at there profit margins.. it is despicable!!!!

I got you all beat... Diesel's going for $4.74+ /gal around these parts. Woooohooo!!! Of course, I get 38-40 MPG in my Jetta TDI which even at those prices still beats the pants off the average gasser... The VX gets filled up about once a month and sits in my driveway most of the time now.

Gassed the VX up Sunday which still had a hair over a 1/4 tank. Hit my local Sunoco, which is locally renowned for having the best 93octane in the area, heh (don't ask, but I think they pour magic dust into their mixture....). $4.09 for 93octane and ran me just over $60 to top it off. I get to fill the Rex back up this evening, so yep, it's starting to force the moths in my wallet to get a job. :eek:
