Just filled my PU truck for the first time since April. Since last Thursday Costco went from $2.75 down to $2.59. The other stations are at $2.79 still. People seem to be creatures of habit. No matter how much the station charges they use the same one. My local Shell is still at $2.99 this morning. That 5% discount with their CC does not make it competitive. I get 3% from Costco using AMEX card.

Which one? The blue one or the beige one, or do you refer to the beige one as a Fifth Avenue?

We've dropped from $2.69 to $2.65 to $2.63 over the last few days in the face of 4th of July and the Central PA Festival of the Arts, which miraculously always seem to coincide with price increases as large numbers of folks flock to State College
Supply and demand? Not even close

Wow, small world. Dillsburg PA is where I've been stopping off to top off when I go to Carlisle. I'll hit the Shell down here, and then hit the Getty at the intersection of Route 15 and 74 which branches off to Carlisle. That stretch is almost pure highway, with the exception of a few traffic lights down here, before I get to the B-W parkway, a stretch of 32 that has two or three traffic lights, but usually only the one at I-70 catches me, and then the few in Dillsburg.

Lemko, I call 'em both NYer, although I guess sometimes I do flip back and forth between NYer and 5th Ave for the beige one. Anyway, it's the beige one I'm bringing up. I still don't trust the blue one. Since I had the work done on it, it hasn't left me stranded anywhere...yet. But it's still cranky to start sometimes, and lately it's picking up a new trick. The rear wheel cylinder on the driver's side has been locking up. It usually goes away after the first 4-5 times I hit the brakes...but I don't want to take a chance going too far until I get it fixed.

Premium is hovering around $3.05 in western WA, at least it was over the weekend.
E55 averaged 24.7mpg in a few hundred miles of highway driving per the trip computer, with several spurts to 80-85 or so. Not too shabby.

In Boise, at the majors.
My wife filled up the van today and I asked her if she noticed that the price at her usual station had gone down from $2.73 in the last few days. She said she just needed to fill up and didn't even check the prices.

Route 15 south of Dillsburg is a great road to travel. gotta watch the cops on the entrance ramps though esp. as you get closer to Gettysburg. I live down 74 in the York area.

I filled up at my local cheapo station this morning  $2.59 for RUG. On my way back to work this afternoon the priced dropped to $2.57. I don't even mind paying more. I love seeing the price go down almost daily.
BTW, oil was down another $1.75/bbl. The big boys must be shorting the market now.
