I paid $3.899 this morning for a splash of 93 octane premium. Regular at the same station (Marathon) was $3.549.

don't even want to talk about what it cost me in gas to pick up Racer X from AWD yesterday, but it's nice to have it back home

gas prices out here jumped 15 cents in the past 2 days! how is that possible? i put 10 in today, barely gave me anything. i payed 3.50. i guess that is less than alot of places, but not even 4 months ago it was at 2.70 for premium! thats almost a whole buck! thats 18 bucks at fillup! you can do the math!

Ours hit 3.65 for a few hours today, then went back to 3.59 (87)
I filled up w 89 wed nite at $3.65.

The only things that are getting big octane are the chainsaw and weed wacker!


I was at the speed shop and asked about the 116 octane. He said, " I'll have to look it up", He NEVER did give me a price since I didn't have a can with me. ( it was $7.35 last august)

At least you have good gas there. Ours is nearly that for usually only 91, sometimes 92 octane.

Oh well, life is hard.

The way I see it though is that in the U.S. we have enjoyed low gas prices for quite some time. Them going up is inevitable, and it doesn't really bother me. Everything's more expensive now, it's just what makes the world go 'round.

everything may go up but wages! and down in south american gas is like below $1!!! although they do have less cars i suspect, but the point is that gas is rediculous nowadays. if i didnt need a car i wouldnt have one (well i probably would have the svx, i probably would hardly drive it)
