What? Premium? I put Regular in mine. :P

Still $3.50-60/gal in SoCal, depending on which block you stop at to get gas.

what a pointless thread... which again will evolve into regular vs premium bullshit.
I drive over 60-70 miles daily, f*ck the gas, bitching won't change anything. And instead of drilling more, we should drill the pockets of Exxon/Mobil execs....But, no, we are rather subsidize AIG execs getting their groove on.

Enjoy the lower prices while they last. Same thing happened 2 years ago just prior to the election. Big oil does not want you going to the polls pissed off. You might just decide to vote out the politicians that their lobbyists have bought who will give them everything they want (drill baby, drill). If that happened their multi-billion dollar profits and ability to manipulate the market may suffer.

Decreased demand has temporary lowered prices. The oil industry is hopeful that we will forget the raping they inflicted on us and go back to our unsustainable ways. Even if we don't, they will cut production to drive prices where they want them..........AFTER the election.

Heck CHiNaMaN,

I thought we were doing great here in Kansas City with $2.61. That mean that premium gas is $2.81. Kudos to Cleveland !!!

Texaco also has Techron in their fuel. Last I checked Texaco was at 3.44/gal for premium.

I've used Texaco gas for almost 3 years in my TL and it performs just as it did when i bought it.

2.66 a gallon 91 octane in the MO. They have switched to winter blend, so gas prices will drop and so will your mileage (or at least mine has )

U.S should start drilling within it's borders. Everyone thinks the world's largest oil reserve is in Saudi Arabia with billions of barrels. However, the U.S has over 2 trillion underneath the Rocky Mountains. Maybe we're saving it, til everyone else runs out haha
