Does not look like OPEC cut backs had much influence over the price of oil. It is down $3 today sitting at $40.54.

I'm under $1.50 as of yesterday. Filled for $1.49 and then saw $1.45 today.
 
If you include the Parkway there's almost a 20 cent difference from the lowest to the highest for regular. The Parkway is only allowed to change prices once a week making those stations very undesirable when prices are dropping but very desirable when they are going up quickly.

We have not gone under $1.50 yet. Some places are selling for $1.51. I filled the wife's Lexus for $1.75 yesterday with Premium. We still have stations selling as high as $2.29 for regular. Diesel is holding a $2.09 at a lot of stations. With about 63 cents in tax we cannot go much lower in CA.

Regular fell a few more cents this week at the majors.
 
Add 12 cents to bump up to midgrade and another 12 to get to premium.
 
And diesel was $2.55 at the Chevron where I noted the $1.53 regular.

Maryland... by andre1969

I've been checking www.marylandgasprices.com fairly regularly, and it looks like the drop has stalled out to around $1.45/gal for 87. However, with every passing day it seems like more stations are dropping down to the $1.45-$1.55 range.
 
Still, I'll take it! I still remember the first time I had to fill up my 2000 Intrepid, back in November, 1999. That's when gas was just starting to shoot up in this area. Prior to that, we'd whine if it got above $1.15-$1.20! That first fill-up was $1.389 per gallon. Adjusted for inflation, that would be about $1.71 in 2007. The inflation calculator I used didn't have 2008 numbers yet, but if you figure 4-5%, that would put it up to $1.78-1.80.
 
So at this point, I figure gasoline is costing me less in real dollars than it was 9 years ago. I can deal with that.

Saw my first under $1.40 today - $1.38 at a Lukoil.
 
Cheapest actually in town is $1.44 and dropping.
 
If this keeps up there's probably a real deal to be had on a Fusion hybrid when they come out....

Maybe this is the tree hugger in me coming out, but if the Fusion Hybrid can realistically get 52 mpg in mixed driving, I'd consider one! Even if it would probably never pay for itself with my type of driving.
