3.66 around here.
I keep hearing stories about stations running out, but haven't seen any for myself.
I'm starting to wonder if it's just scare tactics.
I'm in Hudson NC and Thursday it was hard to find a place to get gas. I ended up waiting for almost 2 hrs. $3.72

Since then the lines have been shorter and the stations are open but still longer lines than normal.

I'm in Alabama. My closest stations have been out for two weeks. The next closest only has 87 Octane. I skipped riding last weekend because I couldn't find Premium and this week only rode two short practice sessions and finished what I had in my bike. Regular is $3.99 and Premium is $4.29 if you can find it. I'll be searching in the morning so I can ride.

Thank you, democrats, for spending the last 30 years preventing the construction of any new refineries. Here we are , on the verge of a complete breakdown because of a storm that did moderate damage to an area 1600 miles away over 2 weeks ago

Thanks, short sighted , corrupt washington losers
Billions of dollars of corporate handouts are given to oil companies thanks to the GOP administration & congress. You'd think a little of that would fund at least a few new refineries. But no, Exxon is too busy wasting money on over-inflated CEO salaries, paying money to GOP politicians and defending itself over environmental crimes. What would all those oil companies do without their handouts?

The oil companies would love to build more refineries and have tried to for decades. The loser f*cks at the EPA and the left wing tree hugger portion of the democrat party have made it impossible. It is true- do some research. Oil companies want to make money, lots of money. They WANT to produce and sell more gasoline....only your ellected scum in DC and the god awful bueraucracy have prevented them from doing so.....

and now look at us....driving around looking for gas, wondering why it is that there is none. Keep voting democrat and get more of the same!!
