Gas Prices...
Premium gas is sitting at $1.89 a gallon. If this keeps up, I am going to have to start walking to work!

Actually, gas was that cheap last summer (Sum '01). I had just gotten my car and I would drive to and fro. Gas was CHEAP! It was down to like .97 or .98 cents. Trust me, I had no problem driving all over. Now, I'll be damned if I move my car unless ABSOLUTELY necessary.

I was actually going to post on this same topic earlier...but I went home and went to sleep  !
ANYWAY...HC I was running late for class this morning and I was like "Oh, cool...Racetrac has gas for $1.44, I will stop there before I leave this side of town"
DO YOU KNOW...I pulled into Racetrac later after class, and AS I was pumping my gas, I noticed that it said $1.59!!! HOW IN THE HELL do you raise gas 15 cents in the matter of a few hours???? 
I was PISSED!!!
P.S. I drive also am PAST DUE for my 60K service with my 2000 car!!
P.P.S. I drive a Silver car and her name is "Sylvie". My first car was a burgundy Mazda 626, her name was "Brandy", and all of my girls have names for their cars as well. We have "Brandy II", "Coke", "Pacer", "Kit", and "Hummer" (not the make of the car...it's just so damn loud!!  )

In Florida, gas prices for regular unleaded are about $1.75. Can we say ouch? There's no state income tax, so the gubmint has to make up that money in some other way.

How much is gas here in Northern CA...TOO MUCH!
We're pumping in at $1.79 - $1.89 per gallon. It's costing me approx. $50 to fill up my Chevy Tahoe...once a week.
