Gas prices sux
I'm a maxima owner, living in texas. i'm fed up the insane gas price that these f*&kin gas companies get away with. i have to pay anywhere from $1.50 to $1.80 to get a gallon of 91 octane from chevon for my max. I was just wondering what are some gas prices that you have to pay for?

I have a question for you guys.
Do you wait till your meter reaches half full then you fill up the gas tank?
or
do you guys just wait until its past the half mark and you have 1/4 left and you fill it up?
Is there any difference?

All you guys are lucky. Try paying 3.99 per gallon for 91 OCT, and also have to wait in line for more than an hour to buy gas.
Well thats the current status here in Arizona. Last Tuesday 35% of gas station had gas.

here in north cali(almost oregon border Regular here is 2.29 right now, 91 (highest around here without adding octane booster to my tank) is 2.49. I just fill up in oregon whenever I go up there cuz it's like 1.95 for 91 which is still a little high.

Damn gas stations raising up the prices because of a "shortage". WTF does a shortage in AZ have to do with Chicago??? Actually, the city stations raised the prices about 10 cents, but the suburbs raised is like 20-30 cents, and now they're almost the same in the city and suburbs. My car was in the shop when the gas was $1.83 for Shell 93 on Thursday I put in 5 gallons today for $1.99/gal

$2.04 for 93 premium (avg price) out in NY and LI...we also has a sudden 10+cent hike in 2 days out here as well....i know Atlantic City , NJ is one of the cheapest places in the country....i wonder how much they are charging right now?

I live in a suburb in Indiana and I payed $1.97/gal for 91 Octane at Gas America. Being a teenager, it really sucks to have to spend $25-$30 for a full tank. Usually I don't let the meter go below 1/4 tank, but lately I've had no option.
