What i've been trying to figure out is why in town here gas is 2.04 for regular but go into some crummy little town and gas jumps to 2.15 for regular. Gas keep goin like that and I'll be broke alot with my 2006.

Just trying to drag this back on topic...

Has to do with transportation, and stations that do more business get a deal on the amount that they pay since they are more frequent customers.

Mustangfun101, Gas down here in SOUTHERN Va is 1.91 at the lowest ive seen to 2.04 at the highest, for Regular.

Is it just me, or have gas prices somewhat stabalized? Three or four weeks ago every day id drive by and prices went from 1.66 to 1.90 in two weeks, now they see to be hovering in the same range, around here at least, i dont know about the rest of the country/world (for all your canucks)

And there was a article in USA Today about gas mileage/cost per month for a new car, i believe the Ford F-150 was $151/month based on $2.05 average gas price and 500 miles/week. My flawed logic puts the V8 of an F-150 with the V8 of a Mustang GT, roughly same gas mileage and cost, same price, same deal. I'm paying at least that much now on my POS, so again, gas prices arent a factor in me getting a Mustang GT, cuz my car guzzles gas like there's no tomorrow.

For some reason, whenever I see spinning rims I wanna some duct tape on it to make it look better, and stop spinning. It's a complete waste of plastic and money. And looks competely stupid... just my opinion... Also, lowrider trucks are what will make this country seem more like Mexico...

Yaa back to topic. Gas went up again around here. Canada is getting the hiney of gas prices Compared to the States. Its just because all the gas has to come from the states. and like it was said before. its all transportation cost. because it all comes into the states. and then comes up north to us. So it sucks.

I was just glad gas dropped 6 cents last weekend compared to the weekend before (at least at my little towns gas station). It'll probably go back up soon.

I filled my wifes explorer up on Saturday and it took $41.00. When we first bought the new Explorer back in June of last year it took MAYBE $30.00 to fill it up.

Canada is like the #3 exporter of oil to the USA. Why are prices that much higher? Must be insane taxes...or expensive refining.

for your information low riders are not a creation of MEXICANS, lowriders are a creation of mexican-AMERICAN's during the 1940's in East Los Angeles. Their main influence? people from midwestern U.S. (they started customizing automobiles before anyone else).
The cars arent to my taste either, but you should have some more respect for other peoples.
