87 octane was at $3.259 and 93 was at $3.559. Cheap enough to warrant topping off the Ram, even though it had about 3/4 of a tank. It's supposed to take mid-grade, but mid-grade is often not that much cheaper than hi-test. So I'll try to alternate fillups between 87 and 93, and never let it get below about a half tank.

We've been bouncing around a lot but trending up for the last couple of weeks. Right now at $3.59 in the freezing rain here in Happy Valley

Ugh, I'm driving up the road today and freezing rain is a possibility around here too. 4 inches of snow fell overnight and now we're heading for a heat wave.

$3.69 for Chevron premium, been holding steady within a few cents of that for over a month. No complaints.

Weather is too warm but at least it didn't rain or sleet. Yet.
Crazy gas station jumped from that $3.31 to $3.49 and it was the same price up the road (or worse). Glad I tanked up when I did.

Not looking good. Popped up to $3.57 today and that was before the Pemex blast.

Ours went from $3.19 to $3.59. The whole area was at $3.29 and went to $3.59. Strange how all the stations pick the same $3.59 price within a couple hours of each other. Well, 95% of them jump to that fixed price. Hmmm.
I was set to get gas for $.10 per gallon under a reward program at $3.19, but that flew the cuckoo's nest so I paid $.43 cents tonight. ($3.49).

Sorry for the delay folks, have been hammered at work and haven't had a chance to post, then looked up and it's February.
Last 3 fill-ups have been $3.29, $3.35 and $3.37 for 87 octane. But like some of you petrol prices have been jumping like Superman leaping tall buildings in a single bound. Today's prices are at $3.70 to $3.90 near work. Understand my $3.37 fill-up was on Monday. Hopefully when I have to fill-up again it won't be near those prices.
What the heck is going on

Andre,
Know this is off-topic but what's your thoughts of the Ram so far, likes and dislikes? Reasons are:
I've been with Fiat Group for about a year now so...
I asked here instead of the GM forum due to haven't posted there in SO long plus I really am not a fan of it anymore - lot of bad attitudes, redundant posts and am non-GM now so...

Beats me - we popped again, up to $3.64 for regular.
