gas watch

I paid 2.79 for premium, regular was 2.59 at a QT in East Kansas City Mo, by Chiefs Stadium. I know prices very from area to area, Premium at QT in St Louis 3 hours later was at 3.29 How much has it dropped in your neck of the US?

chicago is averaged at $3.57.

San Fransisco is averaged at $3.60

looks like the highest state is hawaii and North carolina is the highest within the continental US, then california afterwards.

Honolulu is the most expensive city for gas and San Jose is the most expensive in the continental US.

We have no right to complain about gas prices

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrol_prices

Take a look there and see how long it takes you to hit two hands worth of counting of countries with lower overall prices "per gallon" than the US

here's a octane calculator.

looks like 98ron is basically premium over here.

http://www.csgnetwork.com/octaneratecalc.html

Keep in mind, European governments puts heavy taxes on fuel to force people to buy smaller cars or use public transporation.

They also have taxes on cars based on your engine size in Liters.

Same reason we put heavy taxes on tobacco to force people to smoke less or not smoke at all.

The US price, is closer to the market price.

No BS here, he's talking about the City itself, the inner city is still running about 3.65 for regular and burbs are about 3.35 and less; Premium is about 25 cents more and we are getting reformulated in about 2 weeks and that'll jack it a bit.
