So, I had need to look this particular thread up. And re-reading it...

Well, for some reason up there I posted gas 'round here was 2.50 a gallon for regular on 3/14/2021.

Well, today, it's listed at that same station as 2.39/gal. And then my .50/gal discount happened because Kroger gas points. $1.89/gal, babies!

Of course, that's not fair to use that, it's a one time shot this fill up, but heck yeah, I do like my Kroger gas points.

Just figured I'd say. I'm sure the $4 gas is a comin' 'round here...

at the moment our 87 octane gas is sitting at 1.529-1.559 per liter so times that by roughly 4 and up in canada for the cheap gas are already paying $6.119-$6.239 per gallon if you want 94 octane i just paid $1.749 per liter which is about $6.999 per gallon not that i am complaining as i have only filled my mustang 5 times in 2.5 years drove it roughly 680 miles it doesn't bother me much, when i fill it up i just make sure i add some fuel stabilizer to the mix as well as i don't drive it much and gas goes bad here fast

see that's where i wish i lived in the usa as the gas is cheaper... as soon as anything comes across the border the canadian government sticks their hand in the cookie jar and hits us with another tax or price jump....on april fools day we got hit with a 4% natural gas hike and a carbon tax increase.. my gas bill for heating my house went up 50 dollars and you can't argue it because you need it....

this is why i have 2 cars.... the mustang has had 4 full tanks since i got it June 6,2019 and i have only put maybe 700 miles on it since i bought it....currently the car has been put up for sale i am in no hurry to sell it so every time i get ridiculous offers i send people walking only reason it's for sale is nobody likes riding in it it's ok for 2 people but the back seat is useless so it's no good for my family and with covid having us under lockdown i can't even drive it from city to city or i face $575 dollar fine. so the best i can see is it will probably be parked for pretty much all of 2021 as well..but it is cheaper to fill than my mini van by half 67 dollars to fill vs.140 dollars to fill...

So I just filled up my car a couple of days ago. Regular (87 octane) is higher than I paid for Premium (91 Octane) within the last two years. It is now at $3.87 a gallon out here for 10% ethanol. The Non-ethanol was actually a nickle cheaper at $3.82. Crazy stuff.

Here is what it cost me for a 13 gallon filll-up of 91 octane non-ethanol...



Boy should have enjoyed those cheap gas days over the last two years like it was 1972...

^^^ ShaneyUSA, OUCH!! That's high. As of yesterday, still $2.89 for regular at a local Shell. 30 - 40 cents increments at each level up, mid-grade to premium.

$2.66 here for regular in the W-NW Houston/Katy/Cypress area. 'Course I'm not talkin' about the ones on the freeway, those are 2.80.

For regular, just did a google maps check, and I'm runnin' around in the Caliber, so I don't know what the premium is at the moment. I'll report back.

Y'all need to move, sounds like. D

/Then again, I need to move, Houston's really not all that to me anymore. I need mountains or something. Job/family... hard to move away, y'know?
//And geez, those gas prices...

^^ If (that's the key word) there is an issue with new Mustangs misfiring, it's on FORD. Sorry, that's my take. If my new '20 Challenger starts misfiring it's on DODGE. When spending $40k - $50k on a new car, consumers should not have to worry about which gas station to use. My gas cap says BP too but the car runs on everything, from Valero out west to Chevron here to God knows what gas stations we used up in Canada. Never an issue. Now if you put 87 in a car that requires premium, then yeah, that's the consumers fault. It's on the car companies to provide a product that runs properly across all 50 states no matter what additive is used. The engine should run properly. I'm hoping the two posters here are an extreme minority and not part of a larger problem. We'll find out in time.

its only a matter of time. I am also figuring that the will be a uniform gas and they will do away with different types so they can just up charge it. My wife's car takes premium and it's hard to explain to her why it takes it not that she doesn't get it but the why factor

Yup Boise area has some of the highest gas prices in the lower 48…. Our fuel has a limited pipeline to Boise from Salt Lake, and the rest is either brought in by Truck or rail. Not a good way to go., but these prices are seriously out of site. They just seem to keep inching up more every few days. Has a lot to do with the area population booming and the way we get our fuel.

Station is about 2-3 miles off the high traffic route and typically a little lower than the freeway stops. It specializes in non-ethanol fuel, under the Phillips 66 brand. Our typical top fuels Chevron and Shell are higher but for 10% Ethanol blend. Chevron and Shell don’t offer a non-ethanol option. Non-Ethanol is at very few locations and most are not branded so who knows what you are getting.

No plans to move, but will just keep complaining. Love where I live. Have great weather all four seasons. Winters are pretty mild for this far north, and weather is dry. Not typically as dry as this year, but less than 12-11 inches moisture (Snow and Rain) a year.

Car will keep being driven. Limited mileage on the car is not because of fuel costs. Just picky when it goes out. Love my car and it is going to be with me for a while.

Yeah since the gas station that I go to that's close (Turkey Hill) went to Cumberland Farms I have there card and if you use the app for the summer you save 20 cents a gallon. It helps out a lot most of the time.
