Unlikely.

Let's say tomorrow Saudis decided to sell their oil for $60 a barrel. What happens? The same thing if your corner Sunoco decided to sell gas for a $1 a gallon. Do other gas stations have to lower their price too? No. All they have to do is wait one hour for the $1 gas to sell out.

I know a Citgo just north of the Bronx that is down to $3.17 cash and $3.27 credit. But they are weird because they charge 70-90 cents/gallon more for Plus and Premium than Regular.

I was curious if others are seeing the premium lagging like this as well. It's not quite that bad here but still noticeable. For example 2 months ago the premium seemed to be 30-33c higher than regular, but now it is around 40c higher than regular. I would think lower prices would mean less separation...
I think reg was 3.04 and premium was 3.43 on my last fill up in Mesa AZ a few days ago.

i'm willing to pay $1.99 for gas

that'll get you a reasonable amount of gas in the sedan for a $20 bill

people calling $3 cheap is the reason gas wont ever be 'reasonably' priced again

back in the day if you were broke you could find a few dollars worth of change in the seats and whatnot to get somewhere, now it aint possible
