Autumn Gas Wars??
 
Several stations here in western Washington are advertising 2.99 a gallon gas. Is this a regional gimmick or a national trend? Its pretty unusual for our end of the country to see gas so cheap, regardless of the time of year.
Hows the prices in your "neck of the woods?"

$5.77 Canadian
(1.27 per L @ 4.54L per gal)

That's $4.94 per US Gal (3.89L)


...and we export more than we use....to the US......where it's cheaper....than here.............But I'm not bitter.....much

If ya really look around Regular goes from $3.16 to about 3.25 otherwise its at the Asian/Indian owned stations 3.46 to 3.49---In Chicago 3.77 to 4.15-----Diesel is 3.56 a few places to as high as 4.25---northeast Illinois/ SE Wisconsin area--but our stations can go up 30 CENTS if Obama farts then takes about 3 weeks to go down a few cents

Gas got down to 3.099 here then went up to 3.499.. NO WAY gas prices can jump that much in one day.. I guess they have figured out we have to have it so they can do what they like..

I found a Shell station south of Petersburg on the way to Virginia Motorsport Park on Saturday that was selling Regular for $2.99! Most of the rest of the area has prices between $3.08 and $3.22. Sure beats the $3.45 we were paying this Summer (@ 7 MPG!)!

Re: Autumn Gas Wars??
 
Yesterday channel 2 news was reporting 2.56-2.59 @ several locations around Houston/ Clear Lake area, just when summer is over imagine that.

Seems that the vast differences in fuel prices between counties,states,and nations is due to vast differences in taxation. It's rather constant what the oil companies do to us, it's very different what local governments do to us.

In Missouri it is because of the change in gasoline from the refiners. 87 octane unlead is no longer available. Instead a sub octane unlead that has to be blended with ethanol to make the 87 octane spec. When this change over took effect last month we saw an immediate 18 cent drop at the pump.

$3.25 reg, $3.75 diesel here in York

More ethanol means lower fuel mileage so it's a wash...dang waste of good corn liquor if you ask me but I'm not trying to hijack the thread. GasBuddy is a great app for finding cheap fuel and easy to look on your planned route for potentially good fill-up spots.

Here in the Texas Hill Country its around $2.92 for unleaded and $3.53 for diesel. Of course by the time we start racing again, it'll be back up or higher than it was the beginning of the year.
