Figured I'd post it in the general Cali forum since we're all feeling the heat.

More incentive for me to ride my bike to work.

yeah according to losangelesgasprices.com it's stabilizing. i've read about the gov pushing to switch to the winter mix sooner because it's cheaper (but a tad more pollutant).

it's sad the cheapest premium around irvine is freakin $4.80.

Been taking the bus for years. I'm trying to hold off on filling up for the next week until gas prices start coming down. Hopefully soon.

sad day when we're paying SUV prices for gas.

It's coming back down though, now that they're calling for a federal investigation on gas speculation too.

You know how they get away with it? Supply and demand. People will pay prices no matter what. They're starting to come down now and I even settle for Safeway discounted gas. $2.85/gallon after a month of buying groceries there really feels good!

Just paid 3.80/gal for premium last week at Shell. I like it to be lower but I can't really complain anymore.
