ha $3.10 a gallon is not bad at all
we are paying close to $4.50 a Gallon just north of the border here in vancouver, B.C.
by summer rumors of 5 bucks a gallon should be the norm makes me re-think only owning a V-8 muscle car and a 20 year old daily driver V-8 pick-up that gets 10-13 MPG on average.

oh well only 40-45 minute drive to the boarder and cheaper gas but even then not by much though

Can't even remember the last time I went to a gas station. Oh the joys of mechanically injected diesels.

I had to take my craigslist ad down because I didn't want to store any more oil. I'm sitting on about 500 gallons of waste oil and about 250 gallons of heating oil right now... batch sizes are about 50 gallons. Winter is the toughest time to get it too because everyone is trying to heat their shops.

Here in Texas, gas prices are hovering around $2.91-$2.98 for regular, at least in my hometown. There are some cheaper places in Waco at around $2.80-$2.85 if I remember correctly from my last trip.

I got my drivers license in '74. I remember it was about .50 a gallon at that time. It was slowly going up a bit. I remember driving around looking for cheaper gas,bitching, saying, '' I ain't goin to pay .65 a gallon, Fk them''.
