    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.

    All we can do is buy less gas, and save up for a hybrid someday since the gov doesn’t want to help the situation at all.

    The government is giving tax breaks now to people who buy hybrids. Too bad all of Bush’s buddies are raking in the money for the price of oil. How did that moron ever get elected?

    Gee, my info is already old. Here are the latest prices in CA.

    $2.70
    $2.92
    $2.99

    I expect the prices will continue to rise at least through labor day. Hopefully they’ll go down after that.

    I doubt we’ll ever see gas below $2 though, unless someone invents a time machine!

    At least it is going in the right direction. Even at this price the oil companies are still screwing consumers. Too bad there isn’t a way to get back at them.
