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.Ken Thomas

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)

Won't be long until Bush takes back control of all the oil securities he now has in trust.I would expect gas will go down after that happens.
Did you know that there are over 40 derivities from crude oil;so we are not only paying high gas prices ,but all the other things that are made from these derivities.Don D

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." "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

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

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?????Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
