    What’s the going rate for gas in your part of the world? Currently this is what I am seeing in the Houston area.

    87 octane – $2.09/gallon
    91 octane – $2.15/gallon
    93 octane – $2.22/gallon

    I filled up last Thursday and it cost me $29.00 to fill up the tank in the Mustang, which is the highest I have ever paid. The way my motor has been tuned I have no choice but to use 93 octane. When I filled up that day there was a Hummer H2 behind me and I can tell from the owner’s face he was dreading the final tally. He filled up on 87 octane and when everything was said and done he had to fork over $50.00.

    The sad thing was that he will probably have to fill up again in a couple of days.

    And the prices are rising why? Crude is low… Greed????

    Switching to winter blend, typically raises the cost.

    That was the excuse last week, LOL! According to the newspaper, crude is low and there’s plenty of it. Same with natural gas, but I’m sure we’ll pay for that this winter also. :(

    I’d like to see gas down around the $1.50 mark for winter again :)

    One thing that is annoying is when stations put premium at more than 20 cents above the regular grade. Another way to screw the consumer.

    Regular is $2.64/gal in Oregon. Gotta jack up the $$$ for the holiday travel season…

    I thought high gas prices were GWB’s fault? Obama’s in office yet fuel prices (though lower than 2008 prices) are still high. Could it be becuase the Eco-Nazi’s want the American People to drive Green vehicles?

    Looks like it is time to start driving less as the price rises.
