    California has a really high fuel tax, that's why.

    By the way gas prices in the $2.79 to $2.99 range are actually not bad at all. If you adjust prices for inflation since 1980 this is exactly what we should be paying now. Gas was under priced for many years (the enitre 1990's we were getting a steal on gas!) So as long as we are under $3.25 we should probably be happy.

    $3.39/gallon for Diesel at Mobil to fill up our Sprinter for our company (it only needed 6 gallons to fill up after driving around 150 miles today). $2.55/gallon for 87 octane at the same Mobil.

    That is when we are not running the air conditioner (the one on the top for the people in the back) or the heater (today we needed the heater which also doubles as the air conditioner for people in the back of our Sprinter). So actually we are right at our usual MPG when running the second air conditioner/heater. :)

    I never paid that much to fill my truck. I think the most I paid was $90 or $100. I'm getting gas tonight. I;m down to 1/8 tank and I'm guessing I can find gas locally for $2.25 - $2.35/gal so I'll post here what it ends up costing me.

    Here's some links to my fuel logs...

    Big drop over the last couple of days in Buffalo . Now $2.97 for 87 Octane ( From $3.07). This occured after local TV Station did a report how Buffalo gas prices had dropped in a much slower rate than anywhere else in the country after Oil started dropping in Price. No these Oil Companies do do price fixing , LOL

    Just paid $2.14 at Murphy USA in Spartanburg.

    Also, looking up on GasBuddy.com, SC's state average is now $2.20,
    and last month was $3.75.

    What a drop in a month! - Over $1.50 less....:cool:
