    I got you all beat. $3.77,haha it was $4.15 just about a month ago. One of the draw backs to living in sunny southern Ca. Most states have just the federal gas tax of about .18 per gallon but Ca. has the additional .30-.40 per gallon tax. I found this link that some might want to check out:

    Update: We are now down to 3.06. I can't get my 11 cent discount anymore though, I just hope it will go below $3.00 soon.

    $3.62 with the 3 cents cash discount for the cheap stuff (85.5 Octane at most places, 87 at Conoco).

    It's been going down at least. It was pushing $3.75 for most of the summer. We're in a tourist town, sadly.

    Gas here in sw mi is 3.45. Scary thing is the relationship between mr copper and gas prices. They move in tandem most times...weak gas=weak copper.

    I have noticed fuel $92 barrel and wonder is it

    1) USA utilizing more of it's own home produced product

    or

    2) ISIS selling fuel on the Black Market at below market rates
    as you may of heard ISIS has taken possession of oil fields in Iraq
    it would seem they are a nut in the gear for the monopoly of sellers of oil

    Reality any person in the free world knows ISIS is a killing machine

    Well, gasoline in the Sacramento area in California are back up. 3.07 was the lowest I've seen for regular the past few days. Why? Two refineries out of comission as we're switching over to California gasoline for the summer. This gas is more expensive to begin with and the only real producers of it are in California. Supply and demand.

    F350 scrapper- You guys in metro Minnesota paying over $3 a gallon for gasoline?? Wow! I'm 250 miles away in se SD and paid $2.33 yesreday for the cheap stuff (84 octane bimped up to 87 octane with 10% ethanol). I wonder what's the difference (we're on a better pipeline?, you all paying higher state fuel tax, but even with the People's Republic taxing you guys higher, a buck difference?)?
