Well, in the great state of Indiana...I just put 32 gallons of diesel in at $4.89 per gallon. After $156 in gas to fill up the truck, I was debating driving the cobra...atleast gas would be cheaper...wonder if I could tow a 22ft boat? I'm sure getting up a slick boat ramp would be cheap fun.

I don't even look at the price.

Hey, I wonder if our friends in Iraq could help us out.

Probably not. Why should they give up their budget surplus when they can spend the money that we are borrowing to give to them?

In the long run it is in there best interest to go along with OPEC and continue to fix prices while our brave young people are giving their lives to defended them.
They have been given the gift of freedom and now it is up to them to decide if they want to keep it and what price they are willing to pay.

Sorry for the rant. I could be wrong about all of this, but I’m really steamed.

Knoxville TN, Reg at 3.74 for a local Shell and 3.69 at a Marathon. That's 20 to 35 cents cheaper than KY OH or IN. Having moved here in
August of '07 from the SF Bay Area. There are some advantages.

Just finished a 6,700 mile trip in my 07 Z06. Price for gas ranged from $3.69 to $4.539. This trip included California to Tennessee to Michigan and back to California. Car got 25.45 MPG. Overall price of gas was $4.04 for the entire trip. I had a meeting I needed to attend in Louisville and so my wife suggested we take the Z06 rather than fly so I could run the Tail of The Dragon in Tennessee. My wifes main reason was that we could visit friends and relatives along the way but I was surprised that she suggested the Corvette. Got one ticket in Iowa for no front license. This was on the same day that the tornadoes devastated part of Iowa. We went through a thunder storm where I couldn't see the road at all. I was afraid to stop or even slow down quickly because there was a big rig right behind me and the only thing I could see was his headlights. Luckily not being able to see the road only lasted a few seconds. Hit a similar storm in the Nevada desert. I could at least see the yellow line at the side of the road during that event.

Earlier this week the price of Grade 87 at Costco was $3.99/gal. Reported in the news is that CT has the highest state tax on gasoline in the entire US, 51 cents a gallon.

Two taxes, an excise tax of 25 cents and a wholesale tax on oil products of 7.0% ,which is still scheduled to increase to 7.5% on July 1. A portion of the tax revenue now goes to the General Fund . Originally intended to fund the Transportation account.
