laxx Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 How much is a gallon of 93 down there? I paid$56.15 @$3.93 here in NYC and I still had close to a 1/4 tank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomana Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 My neighborhood tends to be high, but then driving 10 miles to where it's cheaper sort of defeats the purpose. Lately, it's been running between $3.49 and $3.62 (the highest I've seen locally). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
909 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 in Los Angeles it's easily averaging over $4 a gallon. highest i've seen is $4.20, but most are charging around $4.09. next fill up i am costco bound where it's slightly under $4 or the chevron station on jefferson that charges the same. i also need to stop driving like a race car driver...

When I first moved here from Manhattan I rode a bike until I could find a decent car for a price I was willing to pay. I was in much better shape then. Maybe I start that up again.

909 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 as of 7/2008 California had the highest gasoline tax in the nation and likely still does. i hate having to think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 My sister lives in San Francisco, which is reported locally (DC area) as having the highest average for a city in the nation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n_maher Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 as of 7/2008 California had the highest gasoline tax in the nation and likely still does. i hate having to think about it. It's bad, it's nationwide. At the start of last week gas was just barely over $3 here, it's now over $3.40. Personally I think we're about at critical mass when it comes to gas prices so the next 6 months should be, uh, interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrion Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 $3.89 for premium today. That is the most I've spent on a gallon of gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBLoudG20 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 CT baby. I haven't filled up in a week and a half or so, but it was about 3.85 at that time, IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
en480c4 Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 While I miss my Grand Cherokee, it's times like these where I don't miss the HO V8 that was getting between 12 & 14 mpg. The vee-dub may piss me off, but 20s around town pushing 30 on the highway and only filling up once a week is very, very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrice Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 So far they haven't asked me to chip in to fill up the bus I take to work Let's hope it stays that way. It's nice traveling to work in free public transit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrion Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 tried it yet? Nope. Sometime between now and the weekend I'll open it. I thought it was pricey until I saw some other bottles that were over $200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salt Peanuts Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 So far they haven't asked me to chip in to fill up the bus I take to work Let's hope it stays that way. It's nice traveling to work in free public transit. Man, I wish I had that option. At least now that it's getting warm around here, I'm getting close to or over 40 mpg with my Civic. If I end up moving close enough to my work, I'm going to seriously consider biking to work, weather permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Speaking of scotch, I saw Japanese scotch (Suntory Yamazaki) at a local liquor store yesterday. 18yo was bit over $100, but 12yo was more affordable at ~$40. I'm thinking of giving it a try soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they don't work because they completely f-ed up the recable at least you can use them to pull your car out of the ditch on those wild Saturday nights.
