    Eric, Alaska? The refinery is in Anacortes, 80 miles from you. It's all the same gas, just the additives that are added.

    That makes it even MORE ironic that our prices are so high. I mean, I was kidding about the distance to Alaska, since we are the closest of the remaining 49 states. But yes, having a refinery in Anacortes just means that we should have the same 17-cent gas that the Venezuelans have!!!

    Am surprised some of our members in the United Kingdom haven't spoken up, maybe they are just laughing at us. A month ago, they were paying 94 pence a litre. There are 3.86 litres per U.S. Gallon. 94 pence is around $1.85 / 1.85x 3.86 = $7.14 a U.S. gallon.

    I have to use 93oct in both vehicles, which has been over $3 for many months now. I think it's up to around $3.30 now around the Nations Capital. EASILY gonna be one hell of an expensive summer.

    Joe. I think there is also a road tax incentive for running diesels instead of petrol vehicles in the U.K. besides the better fuel mileage.

    But 9 dollars a gallon? All I can think of is what John Belushi said when the horse had a heart attack in the deans office in Animal House.

    Seems like all the stations in the Philly suburbs are taking a hard line @ 2.999 for regular unleaded. Hum... maybe that is why my wife has been driving my Jetta TDI (diesel), leaving me to pay for the VX's gas!

    flex fuel is starting to look pretty darn good!

    $3.20± for regular here in Vegas. And I commute about 17miles in Vegas Traffic x2 every day. And I'm at about 10± mpg right now. I think this is record high for Vegas, I've never seen regular hit any more than $2.99 before. Plus I only use that Chevron stuff!
