It's $2.95 t0 $3.09 here in Springfield and that's with the Ethanol blend. I'm sure glad Ethanol is saving us money.

Gas is 3.45 here and it has the ethanol blend. And the manufacturing plants are only 18 miles from where I live. Ethanol has nothing to do with lower gas prices.

Chevron 87 octane is 3.19 in North Houston.
It was around 2.12 in Nov 2005 when I moved here.
And how much of that is taxes?There is no limit to what a man can do . . . if he doesn't mind who gets the credit. (Ronald Reagan)

You guys are getting off cheap! Its 3.81 for regular around the corner from where I work, and 3.69 off the highway near my house.
Also have any of you noticed the gas milage drop recently. Mine went from23.-24 to 21 over the last several months. I think whatever they are blending it is giving me worse gas milage at a higher price.

I dont quite understand how they justify rapeing us like this! The bad part is that when the prices drop they usually are still higher than when they started! Crap I say Crap!!!

My gas guage don't work, and I ain't going to fix it. I don't want to know how much is there, or not. At 6 - 8 mpg, I check the mileage and add some as necessary. Don't want to be reminded of the cost.
Both of mine require premium, I think I'm going to be sick or extremely poor by next winter.Bob

They're will never be enough ethanol to completely do away with gasoline..... I run it because it's produced locally and it's a heck of a lot cheaper. The big thing with putting it in regular all over the country was just more political BS, and only done cuz the other stuff they put in it was a carcinogen!!!!! At best, ethanol could only be considered a stop gap measure till they get the new technology perfected and can produce a car at an affordable level..... Don't suppose any of the politicians are really pushing for funding for that, huh?????
