Having an E85 capable vehicle is paying off BIG TIME right now

One perk of living in Iowa surrounded by corn I guess.... LOL

For that price I'd run the stuff. I don't bother running E85 because out ere it's only about $.50/gallon cheaper than 87. the $.50 difference doesn't make up for the 25%-30% loss in mileage

I get my gas mostly from Pacific Pride card locks and I know they have one E85 station out by the Richland airport...only one I have seen.

Filled moms car today at $5.50/gallon 88 unleaded at a Sinclair.

$6.54 / gal here in Cape Town, South Africa, and next month we will get hit with another huge price hike.

We will have riots soon....

Are yours 'Baby'  Gallons of 3.785 Litres, or 'Grown Up' Gallons of 4.546 Litres, like ours?

I'm lucky in that I drive my own cars buggerall, I've pretty good public transport to hand, so filling up is rare for me, but cripes, everybloodything is getting more pricey due to Oil Prices. One thing I notice now, is how Diesel on the station hoardings is so much more than Petrol - where it  used to be cheaper.

And Transport, of Goods, is largely down to Diesel = a big hit to near on everything. 

I think I might just accept the offer from a bloke down the road from me, to buy my Diesel Van (I've been keeping it for when the old car is not worth keeping going, as it's barely got 30K on it)  that just sits in my Carport nowadays. I hare around in my '99 Model Ford  AU the rare times I drive - did only 1100 Ks in it last year  - that equals 2 fill ups with both Petrol and  LPG, with half a tank of each left...........

"First Brands" bankruptcy. Fram filters, Trico wiper blades, StopTech brakes, Autolite spark plugs - all gone. Hearing that the Fram brand name be brought back by an unrelated company, just for the obvious name recognition.

Amazing, it's almost as if taxes are increasing the price between the south and the West Coast.

As I recall…it’s subsidized here. 

I’m still averaging $4.50-$4.60 per gallon.

I use this one gas station that i drive by all the time as a gauge and it was $5.50 2 weeks ago, $5.35 1 week ago and $5.25 today. Still stupid high.

Yes, I remember. I still believe they will, don’t you? I’d rather pay more at the pump right now than have Trump start killing a bunch of innocent Iranians. I had hopes it would be over long ago but it is what it is. 👍🏻

Here's a little history lesson. When you pull into a gas station, you actually got full service and gas was 34 cents a gallon in 1957.

Back in the late 70s, I worked at a full service gas station along with three of my longtime friends. 

Ahhhh the stories that are not safe for prime time.....😂

"Is what it is" is fine, but not when it didn't have to be in the first place.

To be honest, I’m really over with the back and forth on this and have been a long time ago. I know many Americans are hurting because of these high fuel prices (I’m not one) and I’m really sorry for that. I’m really sorry for the majority of the Iranian people that they are hurting as well. That’s really what I’m focusing on with this mess. 💯 Let’s not ruin another fuel price watch thread by bringing in politics .

Hard not to when idiot politics are the reason many of us are struggling. A vast majority of everyone’s problems are because of government.
