| Just topped the Sequoia at Costco. $1.95 per gallon. Then driving home I passed an indy selling gas for $1.84. How can that be with out high CA taxes? Diesel is not keeping pace. Most places selling D2 at $2.49 with a few at $2.43. That is the biggest gap percentage wise we have had. | |

The only place I could hit on lunch hour and still have lunch is that one station between my home and work. It was $1.89. I thought that was so last week and only put $10 worth in! |

the Shell station between work and home is down to $1.999 for 87. The Citgo is down to $1.979. The Shell station up in Laurel, where I filled up on Tuesday for $1.879, is now down to $1.779! |

Winchester, Va. gas prices as of this morning are at $1.72 along the I-81 corridor. Martinsburg, WV. is still up around the $1.99 mark so it may be worth it to make the 20 minute trip south to Va. for the cheaper gas. We have been doing our regular food shopping there for awhile to take advantage of the cheaper gas prices. Wish we had the $1.45 gas here. I remember in 1999 gas was at $.89 at Liberty and Marathon stations around the Steubenville, OH--Weirton, WV border. Will we ever get that low again??? |

The dollar amount was $23, less than the 27 gallon tank size. I had a little over a quarter tank to start. Last time gas was $1.59, I bought a used car that got 27.5 mpg commuting and drove it 30,000 miles in the first year. When I bought my 18 mpg hwy truck in June 2001, gas was $1.30. It went to $2.00 by just after 9-11, ending an era where trucks were bought for having very low depreciation when used for commuting. The truck still only has 25000 miles on it. It's lack of use by me mirrors America's lack of hunger for new ones since 9-11. Funny thing is 9-11 helped real estate tremendously. People stormed out of stocks and bought up sunbelt real estate. Surrendering gains in last 2 years: real estate gas wall streel not surrendering: precious metals |

I topped off yesterday about noon at Costco. Price was $1.95. That afternoon the price went down to $1.84. What is real crazy is the station closest to the TJ border has kept their price at $3.89 to gouge the Mexican drivers that were coming over the border. It seems when TJ was selling gas cheap the lines were long and stations ran out of gas. Diesel is staying 25% above gas.
