Gas Prices?
 

Have seen this on a few other sites I am on and am just asking as a curiosity from state to state what everyone is paying per gallon. Locally for 87 octane late December '20 our per gallon price was $1.99. Since the first of the year it has now risen to $2.59 for 87 octane. Just a bit curious what other members here pay. I'm sure there are some higher and a few lower, always works that way.

PLEASE: Do not turn this into a politically charged thread. It will get shut down in a hurry and that is NOT my desire or intention. Just would like to know what others have to pay out of their pocket to enjoy driving real American Classic iron. My '71 4x4 truck on a good day gets maybe 11.5 to 12.0 gpm, my '71 Chevelle maybe 15.5-16 gpm and my '57 with the 283 and 2x4s, not very much at all, LOL. But I do enjoy driving them all. Guess for the most part rather than miles per gallon when driving any of the three it is more in the case of SMILES per gallon.

I have already forgotten what the price was at the end of last year. We have seen at least four increases this year. Bulk plant is the cheapest at $3.829 for 87 octane.

Regular E-10 87 octane here is 2.79/gal but I run ethanol free premium in my '74 and that hit $3.49/gal
I think my '74 gets 12-14mpg, its been a while since I checked. On the plus side it holds 40 gallons so it goes a while between fill ups- the down side is it holds 40 gallons...

It's gone up but the drastic increase was when the refineries in the south shut down . Petroleum is distilled like alcohol and it Dont work to well in below freezing temps. Cheapest around here is 2.399 was 2.19 last December. Crude oil dropped in 2020 from 2019 levels buy 20 % from 56 to 39 a barrel . It's now up to 55 again . The demand dropped drastically last year so producers cut back .

Knoxville , $2.29 for 87 octane . :chevy:

Re: Gas Prices?
 

last fall it was in the 1.70s...now its 2.33....last week it was 2.59

Re: Gas Prices?
 

Our local average is $2.35 for 87 grade this week.
As far as power outages go can you imagine an oil refinery without a backup power source? :lol:

Re: Gas Prices?
 

Up here in Ontario it is $1.29 a litre close to $5.50 a gallon

Re: Gas Prices?
 

Totally agree on all counts. Really hope no one brings such posted thoughts into this thread tho. Will cause it to be closed in a hurry and really don't want that. Just would like to see what every one else deals with in order to go from point A to point B.

Re: Gas Prices?
 

We have three refineries in the Billings MT area.

Yours are set up for cold weather the ones in the south aren’t just like the power and natural gas grid

Re: Gas Prices?
 

When I started driving from Milledgeville to Warner Robins every week day for my internship (almost 100 miles a day), gas was around 2.12 per. It's now 2.40 per. Not driving the truck though, that would destroy my wallet :lol:

Re: Gas Prices?
 

1.85 here for 86 in mid January... 2.60 at sams club yesterday. Premium in the Camaro was about 2.20 or so in mid January. I saw it was 2.80 at sams yesterday. Most of the other stations have premium well over $3.00. :(

Re: Gas Prices?
 

Went from 1.99 n the fall to now at 2.59 for unleaded. Hickory.

Re: Gas Prices?
 

I don't remember what it was at the end of the year, I think around $2.10 but it's now $2.75. I filled up the truck with REC90 last weekend for $3.39 and it was $54.00 but it had about a quarter tank already, so not terrible, but I liked $2.10 a lot better. I think the REC90 was around $3.19 a month ago. For those that aren't aware, REC90 is ethanol free.

Re: Gas Prices?
 

We were 3.49 just a couple of weeks ago. Went MX riding last weekend and it was 3.89. Over 4 for the stuff that the bikes run and what I run in the Brick when Im towing.

Im in the middle of repowering my daily driver, an older Forester XT and you guessed it, being a turbo runs premium.

If gas keeps trending like this, its gonna be a break even to keep DD ing the Brick every day. I might even save money :lol:!

Re: Gas Prices?
 

Regular was $2.19 here before you know what (who) and now it's $2.59 I think :(

Diesel was I think $2.89 when I filled up my daughter's "new" truck on Saturday. Half a tank was almost $60.

Re: Gas Prices?
 

I just went through Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Northern Texas, Kansas and Nebraska. Only about 25 cents difference on the trip with minnesota the highest at about $2.70.

Blaming a person you don't like for a situation that occurs every year when the weather warms up...and the manufacturers and Wall Street aren't controlled by that person. Just sayin'.

Re: Gas Prices?
 

I never look at gas prices. There's nothing I can do about it. Why get myself irritated.

I did have someone drain my gas tanks on my Jeep and my Cadillac. So people must be getting desperate. It must have happened when I was at my other house or my dog would have gone crazy. Serves me right for not closing the gate.

They also drained my propane tank. $586 to get it refilled. I don't know how they did it but I had recently filled the tank and it was empty and the propane guy couldn't find any leak. :mad:
