    Our diesel over here is $3.85 minimum...
    I'm pretty lucky, though it doesn't feel like it.
    Just 50 miles away in Charlotte, NC it's $3.30 for regular.

    I'm just glad to be driving less these days. $60 fill ups a few times a week were killing me. Time to invest in some good walking shoes :D

    LOL, my summer car is an antique Buick. We speak not of the mileage I get, but generally it makes my 4wd pickup truck look good.

    How antique? How about a 1979 Regal that resides in a garage with about 50K or 60K on it.

    Paid $3.20 for 87 just North of Phila. yesterday.

    My mother is over 90 so it gets little use and suffers more from age than use. Although garaged.

    Mine doesn't get driven much anymore, about 1,000 - 2,000 miles/year. I wish I had a garage to put it in, but I don't. Its the first car I've ever owned, and I still have it. At least the A/C is still ice cold. I have no tolerance for malfunctioning A/C units.

    That's probably the cheapest in Maryland you can get without going up into Western MD or over to the Eastern Shore.

    At Exxon, $3.28 for Regular, $3.43 for Mid, $3.54 for premium and $4 for Deisel. This seems to be the price at many other stations.

    I always keep my a/c running, and I don't care how much it costs to fix. Right before they outlawed R-12 for regular sale I replaced the condenser coil (was leaking), took every freon line apart, installed new O rings, leak-locked it, then I hooked the system up to a vacuum compressor overnight. Afterwards I added an oil charge and 4 pounds of R-12. I have not had to touch the a/c system in about 10-12 years, and its still ice cold. I think I paid like $400 for the parts & freon when I did it.

    I just paid $2.95 at HESS / Wilco on East Main Street in Spartanburg.
    Almost 9.5 gallons for $28.00, filled up my tank, from just under a quarter tank.

    One reason we can have lower prices here than in Europe is that unlike Europe the US has so much of its own Oil and other energy sources. We import the rest. Europe also taxes Petrol more.

    I think it is the taxes that make that high over there and not the standard price per barel as this applies on a world wide basis as the starting pricve then one would add what ever the specific country or state that might add on top of the per gallon price.

    At Exxon, $3.30 regular, $3.44 mid and $3.54 prem.
