filled up my '76 LeMans with 93 octane for $2.679 per gallon. Prices are definitely creeping up, but looking in the car's mileage log, it showed how bad it could be. The last time I filled up the car was October last year, and that was $2.779 per gallon for 87 octane. So, things could be worse. And probably will be, before we know it.

I would bet your Total Cost Per mile will be a heck of a lot less than any stinking hybrid. It pays to keep the old car running as LONG as possible. Especially with the newer cars designed to disintegrate in 7.25 years.

to $2.80 on average for 87 octane. A couple of Citgos are holding at $2.69 for 87 octane. So we're pretty much $3 for premium. Can't find older records, but am wondering when the last time pump prices were at these levels:
 
What was crude going for?
What was the demand / supply?
What excuses were being used for the price jumps / hikes?
