    When running errands yesterday between my county and the county north of me, the price for 87 octane was between $3.19 and $3.23 per gallon. The majority of stations were either $3.21 or $3.23 per gallon.

    Good info , I went a bit out of the way to a suburban HESS and paid 2.99.9
    Less than before, yet in route I passed 3.19 most were 3.09. It amazes me that the public is just taking it like lambs to slaughter.

    The highest we've paid this month was $2.89...:browani:

    Yet to see a price over $3.00 in the Upstate SC.
    (But I know of a few in Greenville that are up to $3.03 from other family members).

    Its a shame since there is so much untouched oil right off the Florida coast. I just paid $3.07 this afternoon in Pa. 10 % ethanol in the 5 counties around Philadelphia. That is 10 % we don't import at over $98.00 a barrel.

    Unfortunately Ethanol does not release the same amount of energy when burned as gasoline. Ethanol actually lowers the vehicle mileage, but on the plus side it does a fantastic job of keeping the fuel system clean.

    I agree. There is a great debate about ethanol. Corn based ethanol may actually use more energy to produce than it yields as a fuel Also it drives food prices up.

    That is why cellulose or cane may be a better source. Research is progressing fast in alternatives. Not fast enough though. Still if we can get to 10% nationwide it should slow imports.

    As of today it looks like we are in for a rough ride because Congress waited too long to free up our own sources and still won't. $4.00 gas is coming! Unless a political epiphany occurs soon.

    Yes it does hurt filling up. I was down a little less than half last week and it cost $59 to fill up almost 19 gallons.

    But this is the only car that has room for my legs since my dad's Explorer cramps my legs.
