Gas...

As low as $.89 a gallon in Kentucky with a national average of $1.80. We're so lucky.

Do you really wanna live in Kentucky?

I would say we are lucky.

 

[mike]

Yeah the day I bought my Duramax diesel fuel was only $1.28

And diesel was still smog exempt, right? That one hurt...

 

[mike]

Everything is more expensive here. That’s the cost of living in the center of the universe.



Great survival instincts, Mike.

Looking at the average price in each state state right now, we only rank 49/50. Hawaii still has us beat... I call that a win.

I'll gladly pay the gas prices to live here.

Working on getting the ambulance registered. 7.3 Powerstroke might be a little thirsty.

As I drove through da SFV today on work routes, I saw an average price of $3.49/gallon for diesel. Lowest was $2.79 or $2.89 at a Shell Station. I was shocked that my usual best price in da SFV gas station was $3.44/gal for diesel. It was 20 cents a gallon less (a 76 Station) for 87 octane then anywhere else for 20-30 miles around, so of course, I gassed up.

I payed 2.59 for premium at Costco three weeks ago. I go to Arizona for essential business. I payed 2.54 to 2.79 and it was higher. Some where in the white mountains.

I use the GasBuddy app and find it very helpful to find low prices. Especially when not in my normal haunts.

Arco, around these parts, is purty near always the lowest price. Battling with the remaining Thrifty.

That's because of the price jumps too high there, they just switch to bourbon...

True story... When my brother was a rookie cop in rural NY back in the 80s, they had a call of a stolen peacock from a local farmer. They tracked the vehicle to the newly opened Chinese restaurant. Sadly for the peacock, they did not arrive in time...

I still ate there a few times...

I payed $2.29 at the Mobil station on Florida/Hwy 74 in Hemet on our way back from Romana trail on Sunday...

 

[UPSed]

And just like that our trip to Oregon next month will be about $200 cheaper.

Damn, we could have hooked up. Our trip is cancelled... No graduation to attend.

We're going for my sister's 60th and a family reunion. We're bringing our gravel bikes as I believe Oregon is shut down until July 1st.

$2.15/gal at Costco in Commerce today...

I am proud to pay an extra buck 25. I am financing a train from nowhere going to no place. It will make that transit in almost no time, or maybe never

One thing that is new in the gas scene here in North Carolina is no-ethanol gas.

I was surprised to learn how hard ethanol is on lawn care equipment, lawn tractors, certain boat engines, etc. There are gas stations here that have specific pumps set up for ethanol free gas... and it costs about 2x what regular 10% ethanol gas costs.

When something even remotely interesting shows up in a thread about gas prices, it must be celebrated! “Some where”... hmm

 

[Runs with Scissors]

And here's why (I know, you already know why) . . .

0700 this morning on the NB 405 in Long Beach.

Avgas is ethanol free. Folks used to avoid high avgas prices by switching to auto gas, but ethanol would not be nice to an aircraft fuel system.

These days all that subsided ethanol we aren’t burning in cars is now available in bulk bottles of hand sanitizer.

I noticed the Valero gas station in Mentone has e85 for $1.75/gallon.

Alcohol is bad for your seals on gas engines. But it is a cheap octane booster
