$2.12 for Sunoco 94 here in NJ .... then again you can't pump it yourself (but we have cheaper gas - go figure).

Chevron 91 last night for 2.59 a gallon. The wife paid 3.15 the other day in Los Angeles for the TL. This is getting ridiculous, but we still have the cheapest gas in the world.

I thought Dubai had the cheapest prices in the world...then again, it's from their backyard! I read that in EVO magazine where they followed the Aston Martin test team.

The gas prices here in LA are disgusting! And the AMG cars all have big tanks and thirsty engines, not a good combination at the present time and location!

Don't worry, another invasion will = higher prices. Think about what will happen if the US goes into Iran, lol, better fix up your old bicycle.

We won't see lower energy costs until we get a new president (for those who understand how the market works you know why, here is one part of it, we need a stronger dollar). I knew this would happen after the election, it's like "Bend-over America!

Remember what family works for big oil.

We have also brought some of this on ourselves, look at all the larger sized SUV's on the road with only one person in them. Is this what we call progress?

I'm starting to think we Americans are the stupidest consumers on the planet. Buy/spend without thinking, brainwashed by a TV commercial.

Did we really think we could do whatever we want and not pay a price.

last time i checked, unless you live in an OPEC nation where gas is cheaper than water, we're paying not so much compared to the rest of the world. still, $50/barrel is way too much.

Something on 4 wheels..
We are spoiled in the US! I remember filling up the car in Germany - $5/gallon

They try to consolidate social security at the gas-pump
Since I moved to the states I'm so happy every time I leave the gas station...

Our gas prices are rising now.. I just paid $0.98/liter ($3.92/gallon) CDN to fill up with Sunoco 94..

They are speculating that we will be over $5/gallon CDN here by the summer.. I hope they aren't right.

We are paying about the same here in the Chicagoland area, less further out in the suburbs. Downtown it's easily $2.79 for 93 octane.
