There's been an uptick, but not too bad, yet. Paid $2.39 for RUG today, and that is the going price at a lot of places.

Prices seem to be up 5-10 cents in metro Seattle too...I wonder if it is an actual increase or just because of the tanking greenback.

Sorry for the delay in reporting - been on the road quite a bit the last 3 weeks.
 
Was in Marion, OH for work three weeks ago, prices along the way were in the $2.35 RUG (Ft. Wayne, IN.) ~ $2.48 RUG (Toll Road) range depending on where we filled-up. Had an '09 RAV4 - not a bad rental, very good mileage, averaged +30 on the highway doing 80mph, better at a lower speed. In-city driving was pretty good as well, upper 20s.
 
Last week was in AL and GA, with prices being $2.30 RUG on average in AL and $2.38 RUG in GA. Noticed down there that the spread between grades was 15 - 20 cents. Highest I saw was $2.44 in downtown Atlanta.
 
Back home now and I see prices have spiked to $2.75 RUG on average. I was able to fill up for $2.66 but before I left to go south prices were in the $2.55 range.
 
Up next, Texas and Mexico.
 
What the cuff is going on?

$ 2.61 for Premium (93 octane) at a Sam's in Lafayette, LA on Tuesday 8-4-09.
 
Sam's usually runs as much as 11 cents less per gallon than the local majors such as Exxon.

The price of oil is up to $72 a barrel. Probably a hedge against the sinking dollar. The hummingbirds are telling me it is going to be an early winter. They are stoking up a month early this year. Heating oil took a big jump today. The oil companies could be raising the prices to compensate for all the Clunkers that are no longer with US.
 
Gas at Costco yesterday was $2.76.

The dollar had another bad day - many commodities seem to be up. I think that's where most of these movements are from. Of course, the oil companies can do as they please.
 
I've heard we are in an El Nino this year - I think that gives you guys down there more severe winters, yeah.

I passed a Chevron going to an appointment this morning in a business park area. Regular was $2.59, diesel $2.69.
 
An hour later I drove up to the pump there to fill up the Outback and get some lawnmower gas, and sat there a moment wondering if I was having another senior moment. Regular was now $2.69.
 
So I pulled out and went to the Shell two blocks away where regular was $2.59.
 
Maybe I dodged a bullet and was able to beat the price increase by a few minutes. Saved a little over a buck.
