Seen 87 for $2.59 in a small town and the bigger cities it's floating from $2.89-3.19 still.

 

I saw E85 for $1.98 in southern MN and paid $2.49 near my house today.

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.

I live in the land of GREED. Most are 20 to 60 cents higher. I have that one station that is at the $2.29 price and rarely varies. BP took over the last Petro Canada station in Rochelle. There is a Casey's about a hundred miles south that is very close to that price but unsteady in content percent. BP is 75% every time. 

 

I think most price it as a performance octane and not as a clean air play.

Yeah, agreed. Mine has been pretty consistent at 75% too. I don’t check every fill but I can kinda use the A/F gauge as a proxy. If I’m in the 8s to low 9s I know I have some “high test”!

 

I imagine we’ll start to see the switchover to higher gasoline soon. Been pretty chilly here at night but truck still starts normally so far.

Diesel still $5

 

Premium gas is over $5 most places now. Fake ass refinery fire in LA caused prices to jump again.

36 hrs ago. Was wrong about the .30 cent jump, it was .40 cent. $2.79. But was right about the timing. Now it will slowly drop to $2.40ish area over the next 7-10 days. BS

Saw $2.73 today at a Kwik Star and a Casey's. 

 

I've kept a chart of price since I bought the Mitsubishi and the price is for Premium but the trend is flat although the swings are wild. :nonod: Yellow is 24 point average and the red the linear average. Dead flat.

      Gas Prices

      By Atlas · Posted

      I understand that. The price is what it is, though. The price is what oil costs today, where our choices have led us, where supply is, and where demand is, in the market that is. Speculation is for futures, what we think the price will be, but with incomplete information at the time the price is forecast. I know you know this, but you appear to be intent on making a secondary point here about what you think the market could or should be, if only other choices.   In 1975 it became illegal to export US Crude. I'm conflicted on what the best answer is. Free markets allow export in pursuit of profit. But there is also a lot to gain by producing and consuming our own oil here. How do you reconcile it?

      That sir is a choice. And even if it were not for all the reasons stated, this disruption has zero to do with the reality of the actual logistics and everything to do with the greed of SPECULATION. Spot price is irrelevant to reality.

      What I think you're saying is there is supply here at home, and in Venezuela, and we could ease pricing if only it were favorable to do so.   Well, yes?   But that's not the current market. Supply isn't what could someday exist, if only, it's what producers are willing to produce and sell at a certain price point.   The national price of single family homes would come way down if we'd just slap together a few million homes this summer.   RAM and GPUs would get a lot cheaper if we just set up some factories to produce a bunch more and stopped using it to build out AI data centers.

      The turn signal/multifunction switch is faulty.  I've seen a few of these go bad at work.
