Too much, but we can't use our own so we must continue to buy from Hugo Chavez and the Arabs.

DRINK UP!!!

Just filled my daily driver here in Orange County, CA - $4.55/gal for premium (91 octane) at a Chevron station. Mid grade is a dime less, regular a dime less again. I understand some places in LA County are closer to, or exceeding, $5/gallon.

Think I just filled up with a price around $3.95 for reg and $4.15 for premium. No complaints here. Fuel Prices go up, fuel prices go down. It is part of free market capitalism. We are producing more oil than ever here in the States but that oil is sold on the open market. The more people that want it, the higher the cost and the more my stock is worth

That's information is incorrect. We haven't paid $1.89 in many year. I want to say it was betwen $4.00 - $4.75.

Actually FP, gas was down to $1.50-$1.60 right around the time Obama was in. Before election it was at $4. Oil went from $147 to $33 for a barrel there for a bit.

right now, it's about $4.35/gal. premium (91 oct). not that it matters much. if it gets around 7 or 8, then i think the paradigm shift will be fully in effect.

The same as in cigarettes. From 25 cents a pack to five dollars. Cost of production stayed the same. criminals at work.... Only thing gained is fewer people smoke, or drive. I still drive. gary
