Ohio's state tax on gas used to be less than Michigan's, so it was defintiely cheaper. I don't know if that's still true or not though.

It may be cheaper, but marginally. The tax difference is something like 6 or 7 cents a gallon.

This past weekend our area was still under $3.00 Tuesday it was 3.06. This morning was $3.10 and this afternoon I paid $3.29 at that same station.
I recognize, and am grateful, that our region of the country is not as expensive as others. But seriously? Almost 20 cents in just a few hours?

Yesterday it was $3.29, today it was $3.39. I was grumbling when I paid $3.14 this past weekend! I'm sure glad I did it now!

I think the last station I saw was at $3.09. It's been hovering around $3 for a bit, so I didn't really flinch when I saw that.

That's about where we are. Until Libya stabilizes, it's just going to go up and up. Whether you believe in global warming or not, THIS is a great reason to be moving toward alternative fuels. We need to break free from dependence on the Middle East.

That original post really upsets me...

Tell me what you think.

I just had to quote this OP after crusse mentioned it. I mean $10 for a half full tank?! I'm curious what the OP was driving. I have a Civic so pretty small gas tank and I'm paying about $30 and I usually put in 9 gallons. The F150 on the other hand...

When I had my Elantra back in 2000, $10 was a full tank (or close to it).
