lower gas prices?

[JIMTED79]

I just filled my Z71 up and to my surprise the price droped from $3.37 the last time I filled up to $3.33 this time. Not much but a move in the right direction, what about the rest of you guys?

[G Impala 63n70]

[enduro400rider]

i about $hit my pants when i got out of school last friday it was down to 2.59 after being at 2.89 for close to a month, i waited in line for 15min. to fill up my 300m it only cost me like $38 (i already had almost a quarter tank.) after the long week end im down to a quarter tank again, i drive too much so i go through gas like crazy, i drove 100 miles one day and never left my county :rolleyes:

$2.99 from $3.39

[nosliw]

$3.29 where i'm at

WA has some of the highest prices in the country. us and CA

[Toadz400]

$2.89 here. It's been at that for the past month. I have some receipts from last November when for a week (I saved all my gas receipts from the past year almost) it was at $1.99. Not even a month later it was almost $2.70. Amazing how they can get away with that.

Costs me about $45 to fill up my Sonoma tank (16 gal) and I get around 23 MPG now driving hard (catalytic converter took a crap on me, used to get around 27).

[Johnny & Monica]

2.54 here:rolleyes:

[Rico400]

about 3.10 here. i noticed on the news oregon is higher than the nations average. i wonder why?

[trick250r]

its bad when a sixteen-year-old can say, "I remember when gas was $1.20" :rolleyes: anyways, its holdin steady at about $2.70 here.

Man I remember when I was a soph in high school and my friends first started getting their license, gas was 88 cents a gallon! :eek2:

[rtm1216]

It's been $3.14 here for a couple weeks. One station down the road from me actually raised their prices over the weekend to $3.19. Which is where it was this morning when I drove by. :(

[LTZ400rider]

any1 notice they have 10 percent ethanol in gas now, thats supposely why it was up so high, to do research, maybe im wrong though. i dont see why gas is so high, we are not low on oil. my guess is to pay more tax so we are less in debt from the war

[LaLaLoosh]

it will definately get higher during these summer months.

Actually the ethanol in the gas is the lower the prices, not raise them. But they raise them anyway because they can.

Ethanol also lowers your gas mileage.

I agree with your first statement but not your second. In some vehicles the ethanol actually raises fuel mileage and it helps out the farmers!

[hardkoratvmxr]

2.66 from 2.72 here

[PismoLocal]

3.51 :(

[Butters]

right now i am paying 2.62 for premium.

In what vehicle would it raise fuel mileage? Ethanol isn't as combustiable as regular octane/heptane mixed gasoline so it wouldn't burn as well as normal gasoline. I could see it getting better gas mileage with perhaps a stronger ignition system and higher compression maybe?

$3.45 in so. california......damn it! its hard to sit sometimes

Does anybody know if diesel conversions are good? They convert a diesel so it can run off vegetable oil (stuff along that sort). I know of a machine that turns vegetable oil into fuel, but never known any one with the conversion. Any one know anything about them?

Well, I have a friend that is going to put the conversion in his rollback. If it works on that, everyone one is going to buy a diesel. :D

just run some bio-diesel. That's what most formers around here run in tractors and stuff. U can get the old grease from restaurants and fast food places for free most of the time. Look up how to make it online, it's easy and their are many many sites. You can run it in a stock diesel engine with no mods and it gives you better MPG and more horsepower, and is actually better for your engine than normal diesel. This farmer has been runnin biodiesel in an old ford for over 800,000k and the truck is still goin strong.

it doesnt give you better gas milage and it takes about an hour to clean the old oil

[Pappy]

2.69 here, down from 3.00 last week

[cool 300ex]

$2.79 from $2.89 i remember a years back when it was only 99 cents a gallon.

The conversion I'm talking about is where you install it into the truck itself, and then you can just pour in the bio-diesel without having to clean it. And it works also that you can use regular diesel.

incase some of you are curious about it

[ilpadrino113]

it hasn't changed at all here, 3.03 for the past 2 months or so, then down to 2.96 for about the past 2-3 weeks

[RaptorRacer45]

Yep been holding steady at 2.76 for the past 3 weeks

[Hornbreaker]

The Price for Reg here on Western Long Island all depends to were you go. On one corner we have 3 stations Moble at $3.19, the other two corners are Shell & Exoon at $3.15 & down the road 1.5 miles west you have BP at $3.09 & right next door is Hess at $3.05, All on the same road. So like I said it all depends on witch DOT-HEAD you stop at.
