4.10 a gal here. I spend 30$ in gas daily. I was about two hours from home this weekend and 93 was 3.59. Seemed like a steal

Filled up at Shell today for $46, about $3.92 a gallon. I try to go on a Sunday or Friday since its 7 cents off premium. My commute is mostly around town so price does not really matter too much. I can't really do much to fight the price anyway.

Gosh 4.63 and I thought 3.83 for premium was bad here this weekend. Luckily e85 is only about 3.10. Ends up just about equalling out though since I get roughly 4 or 5 miles a gallon less.

The price difference between Pump-91 [$4.549] and Pump-E85 [$3.839] was 71 cents as of Friday. My consistent 13MPG numbers keep me sane along with boost, but it sure will suck if/when ethanol creeps well into the 4's.

We're down in the $3.70's for premium in south Louisiana. Cost between $45-50 to fill up when the light goes on heh.

And my commute to work is 3 miles, I can get almost two weeks out of a tank of gas.

93 octane jumped over 20¢ in the past few weeks here.. think it's around $4.10 now.

When it gets above $4, I often catch myself trying to hyper-mile the Evo.. and that is totally an exercise in futility. MPG are pretty constant, whether I'm on it or driving like a granny... so yeah, entertainment expense

You guys should not complain as much for gas prices for 2 reasons:

1) If you bought an evo you knew you were going to spend lots of money on gas.

2) Be happy that gas in the US is so cheap comparing it to europe and canada. We have all the oil here and still pay more than you guys for some reason

Gas is about $0.50 and that is for octane 91, 95 is a little more. I work in the middle east so its cheap...
