Just made the drive from CA to MD in the past 64 hours. Gas was cheapest in AR, OK, parts of TX(), KY, NM, and TN (in relative order from cheapest to highest). Highest in CA, MD, WV,AZ, and TX (it varied there by as much as 0.30/gal)(high to low).

This morning @ Valero, for 87, $4.219/gal. CT continues to have the distinction of the highest state tax in the US @ $.51/gal. A guess would be Costco is probably $.05/gal + less expensive.
The CT General Assembly is considering keeping the oil products wholesale tax percent at 7.0 %, scheduled to go to 7.5 % on July 1
Latest controversy , State Troopers are now allowed only one tank full of gas when off duty, each Trooper brings their patrol car home. The one tank full is purchased at the state facility/barracks. They were previously allowed to purchase additional gas and submit an expense report. The Trooper's Union has requested a meeting on the policy change

ON the Early Morning Show, there were two guy's that did a video cartoon on how gas is charged up to it's current costs. The part that got me was what it costs per gallon starting with just plain crude oil from the ground: $0.05.
It just get's barreled up and sent overseas. Somewhere bewteen the Middle East and our refineries, it goes up $3.30. Then all these costs go in to produce the $4/gallon we're seeing today.
What the $3.30 is , are speculators on what the cost "should" be based on several factors, such as geo-political issues, the weakening U.S. dollar, and of course, supply and demand.
I think the recession has already started but the reality will hit home on Independence Day when $5/gallon is predicted to hit...ironic timing, considering we "depend" so much on a country so far away... I'm with the guy in VA, let's start charging those we are protecting. (However, that could backfire and suddenly, we're replaced by the Chinese military!!!!) |

$4.69 Diesel
I wonder what the oil supply nations will do when they have ALL the money in the whole fecking world. Hell we should happily give it to those bastards and then change our currency and not accept the old currency. Let the bastards have it all. It won't be any good |

I just got gas at the Valero station here this morning and the 87 octane was $4.39. I forgot to look to see what the 91 octane was. I did see one station in Redding yesterday that the cheapest was $4.49 and the highest I saw was $4.89.
