Cost of premium $2.49/gallon

Just wondering what people are paying currently in different regions for putting premium in their cars .

I know a lot of people bring up this subject and stress over it, but we all have to deal with it. My self I do a lot of driving and spend a minimum of $250 per month on gas. Thats between my 2003.5 G35 and 1996 Maxima.

I pumped 93 octane yesterday (CITGO @ Sams Club) for $2.14 a gallon. No kidding. Right across the street 93 was going for $2.34. All over town it's varying from $2.29 to $2.34. Regular at Sams was $2.04, everywhere else it's about $2.15 - $2.17.

Sam is my new best friend, even if he was out of soft-serve chocolate ice cream yesterday, the ba$tard.

No stress about gas from me - I went into this purchase with my eyes open and knew the gas mileage was a shortfall of this fine automobile. I'm averaging 22 MPG though, so it isn't so bad.

Corpus Christi, Texas. Home of CITGO refineries and garbage on the beach. Thank you, thank you very much.

So Cal is anywhere from $2.69 to $2.89 on 91 octane. My last fill up was $48.50 on little bit over 18 gallons.

I might just sell the G and get a second diesel and get 30 - 40 MPG or better. Screw Saudi Arabia! Any takers?

You know what guys? Buy gas just like normal and drive like normal. You'll wish you had taken my advice when gas is at $5 a gallon. You'll say "I remember the good old days when gas was less than $3 a gallon. Boy if I'd known then what I knew now, I wouldn't have worried about it so much"

Go to your local race track and fill up with 100 octane. Screw 'em all!

Enjoy

Last weekend I went on a trip to Roanoke VA. Along US-220 I found some awesome deals on gas and filled up. $2.06 for 93 and $1.93 for 87. I was shocked it was so low.
