    3.49 on Monday, 3.89 today.

    I guess it's the shallow Mississippi River hindering oil/fuel transport and the CIA given the go ahead to supply weapons to the Syrian rebels.

    Who flippin' knows.

    When I was buying Mercedes 300 SD's & SDL's, several of them has an auxilary fuel tank in the trunk for this very reason.

    Folks in Northern Ireland have been buying cheaper deisel by driving into the Republic of Ireland and loading up on agricultural (red) deisel. The po-po in the North have been setting up check points for years to "dip the tank" for illegal fuel usage.

    Do you walk? You realize that between your car going from cold to hot 2x a day and only driving 2 miles will seriously affect your gas mileage for the worse right?

    I commuted five miles each way and got approximately 200 miles per 15 gallons. I now drive 15 miles each way and get 300 miles per tank.

    WTF? is right.
    Metro Detroit. Currently. Regular: $3.95

    Reasoning here is pipeline down in Minnesota, shutting down 6 local refineries. But what about the rest of the country?

    I've been riding my bicycle everywhere for the past 2 months. I have no idea what fuel costs, other than beer at my local bar is between $5.50-7.00 a pint for the good stuff.

    A Chevron refinery in northern cali had a fire last week, so...yep you guessed it, we get to help fund their loss with higher gas prices to the tune of about 50 cents more per gal..Diesel is now about 4.15 per gal...again..20 gals just cost me 90.00..:mad:

    As an aside, does anyone know if the electronic price signs on the road are linked to the price on the pump, or is that information entered independently?

    The question came up today.
