1.71 yesterday for premium... 17 gallons under 30 bucks... that felt good...
Although I did get a 20 cent discount as a member... but still pretty sweet...

LOL at all the idiots that bought expensive electric cars to avoid paying high gas prices. Lost that bet big time!

Everytime I see a Prius I laugh..All those assholes went out and paid OVER sticker to get one of those..Maybe the factory installed Obama sticker was worth the extra cost

And they can browbeat all their friends and colleagues into thinking that they're doing the world a solid by "driving green."

Enjoy the gas prices while they are this low. It will probably be $4 a gallon before you know it.

Damn winter blend though. And I just did a huge tuneup on the car before the prices dropped. New coils/spark plugs, battery, tires, CAI(not to rice out, it's just cheaper than buying *decent* air filters over 100k miles and better at filtering particles if you know what to look for), all fluids flushed, and tune. I was getting between 42-47mpg before the price drops and winter blend, now I'm happy if I see 30mpg(getting avg 27mpg now).

I'm paying around $1.89 or so lately. Although I just paid $16 for 23 gallons of gas with the discount card I have.

Of course gas prices had to drop right when my commute drops from 90 miles one-way to 3.

While gas prices drop, Metra is raising their rates again eventhough their service and dependability continues to suck ass. Nice little business model they've got.

Or it could be you're using more heat, warming your car more often, and having a harder time gripping the road due to inclement weather.

I live in south texas. Our inclement weather is either warm or hot.

I remember .13 cents a gallon when there was a gas war in 58..My dad couldn't lower it to .12 cents cause at .13 he was only making a penny a gallon on gas

Our Sinclair was at .14..The guy across the street in an Oklahoma station was at .13..Then we lowered it to .13

I have $1.06 on my HyVee fuel saver so I'm about to fill up for about $0.70/gallon later today.

It was pretty nice yesterday. Low 70s and sunshine most of day. Really enjoyed softball practice with my daughter. Gas is hovering between $1.85-195 here.

Isn't going to last long, just noticed 2 stations jumped up 15 cents over the weekend.

Wish I had room to put a huge storage tank in the yard for times like these, then build a shed around it so the city doesn't notice.
