5 miles away at Marathon regular E-10 87 16 $4.87 😱

25 miles away at Shell V Power Nitro+ 93 for $4.89. 

 

In general not hard to find regular for $3.99. Seems everyone isn't getting the same memo. 😏

Worked at a full service gas station in high school with 2 bays for repairs. Mechanical pumps, cheap oil in cardboard quarts and mostly cash sales. Gas rarely went over 30 cents a gallon for regular.

Now we are in my wheelhouse     Any refinery that can run sour crude can and does process sweet. Just can't do it as efficiently. Fact, no refinery in the USA processes ONLY sour crude. They

Again politics is not a subject for the site. It's specifically mentioned in the site rules. People are only going to argue.   Gas price listing are fine without all the political comment.

5.48 regular still here at Kroger. Stations here aren't getting the memo but the owners are probably tired of programming prices up/down with every headline and futures gyration.

 

WTI Crude is over 80 again but seems mostly unfazed after the exchange of fire in the Middle East over the weekend and ceasefires falling apart. 🤦‍♂️ Enough already...

Only because you don’t like what you see? You want me to repost yours? That was directly related to gas prices. Cry me a river.

$3.84 in town for 87 octane.

 

Diesel swings wildly, it's $4.39 in town but saw prices of $5.00 still other places.

Actually the energy secretary said that's not true. Sometimes people with dementia have hallucinations and memories of things that didn't happen. But don't worry man we're just "a few days away" from ending the war, for the 39th time (and that's fact).

Since the media YOU and your buddies are programmed to watch failed to mention this, I'll fill you in.

 

Trump admitted today that we've grabbed 150 MILLION barrels of oil from the Iranian tankers locked in the Strait by our Navy. We turned off their transponders, took them out to sea in the dark of night since they have zero radar capabilities anymore, offloaded every drop onto another vessel, and put them back by morning so no one was the wiser. That oil has been en-route THROUGHOUT the entire conflict.

 

Main reason he admitted this is to let even guys on our own side who joined leftists in complaining about the prices that he hears us all, and has taken steps to make sure this didn't spiral into a BAD situation ... just like the mainstream media has been PRAYING would happen, just so they could gloat. Amazes me how these people are rooting for the destruction of THEIR OWN HOME, just to make a President they don't agree with or like look bad! That's next level TDS!

 

I know your not capable of giving our President the benefit of the doubt, again due to your deep programming, but THIS is why oil never hit $150 a barrel as predicted by your programmers, AND the reason oil continues falling. Like I said before, Trump's got a plan, and this is proof of it. By the end of his term, we're going to be in GREAT shape for a change!

 

Since I just spent $3,000 this week on #2 heating oil and gasoline, the war most certainly is ending! 🤣

Could you cite your source on this?  I cannot find any reference to the US secretly taking the oil.  I find references that the US helped oil tankers move through the Strait of Hormuz, but nothing about what you're stating.

The articles are there but most are skeptical as usual. Exact numbers, who knows. It does make the point and shows who’s really in charge. And gets the resolution quicker. You get the other side saying we’re in a quagmire and we’re losing. It doesn’t help resolve the conflict. In a world where everything is speculation and grandstanding. You have to play fire with fire. There’s no one better.

Remember before this we bombed the crap out of Venezuela and Don Retardentia got on the Tweets saying we were going to take their oil industry and be rich! Chevron and other Big Oil leaders were like, uh... nope. Reality check.

 

5.46 for regular at Kroger.

 

6.69 for diesel.

 

Winning!!

 

But it is sad that people mistake hatred for "one person" when we actuallu just hate ALL liars, losers, pedophiles, cheats, crooks, and those unqualified for their jobs. Why would we relinquish our moral standards for just one person?

It's what happens when there is no singular standard. Nearly 9 billion people each carving out for themselves what they believe is 'righteous". Now if we only had access to a uniform standard :rolleyes:

 

Ops! I forgot myself for a second. Back to your regularly scheduled programming. 😬

      Gas Prices

      By PhilB · Posted

      Did you even read this article?   Even the title of the article says "U.S.-Iran Deal Doesn’t Mean a Swift Return of Oil and Gas Flows"   Remember, crude oil prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the oil companies.  Gas prices are based on FUTURE purchases by the station.  This article stated that many of the oil producing nations have to restart their processes to get the oil produced.  Then the oil has to be shipped to wherever.  And it doesn't get there overnight.  And most of that oil is not coming here. Check out this site:  https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10621   A graph will pop up to show where the US imports their oil from.  Notice that there isn't a lot of import from OPEC and Iraq.  Most of the US import comes from Canada. The US oil produces are selling their oil on the open market, which is why the US fuel costs went up.  So you're correct, the US oil companies are going to slow walk the price downward.

      Stabilitrak conversion to Z71

      By teamjnz · Posted

      I just purchased a 2004 Tahoe with 148,******. I used to have a 2006 Suburban that had the push button Auto 4X, 2Hi, 4Hi and 4Lo. When checking out this truck I noticed it had push button but didn’t focus on it. After the purchase when driving home, this is when I noticed it was different and after a little research found out it has the AWD stabilitrak system. I don’t live in an area that requires AWD. I bought the truck to start a new adventure in life with off roading, now that the kids are all grown up. I purchased the truck knowing it didn’t have the G80 rearend but plan on re-gearing to drive on 33s or 35s and upgrade with a rear locker and still be able to tow when needed. Blah Blah Blah Anyway I know am thinking about converting the stabilitrak  to Z71. I know I will have to replace the transfer case. So now the information gathering stage is happening to see if it is worth it. Is the front AWD stabilitrak differential different when compared to a non-AWD front diff? Will I need a completely different front differential or can it be converted? What else should I be considering? I did see something in a video for GMT900 platform with removing the ABS fuse that disables the stabilitrak and turns the truck into a 2 wheel drive. Would that work in the GMT800 platform?
