    Gas prices

    Yesterday i fill up with 93 octane gas high premium ( $ 4.15 )

    I pay $ 83 for a full tank + the fuel cleaner bottle.The regular can be found at $ 3.89 in most of the gas station here in queens,NY & the 89 can be found at $ 4.05/4.07.

    I don't know is this can be helpfull guys but what about tracking the gas price in our home towns ?
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Hi Gang: As for me, I always put in Premium 93 grade in all of my personal vehicles, regardless of price. It's better on the engine, reduces detonation and most importantly, when I need to pass a semi-truck-- I need all the "rice krispies" I can get! My only stipulation about gasoline, is to never, never, never buy ARCO (it's crap).

    FWIW the Irving station down the street from my house is the cheapest in the area $3.43 for regular this morning.

    We have actually been around the $3.00 mark here in Texas recently. Just last week a new station opened up and they had a grand opening where they said that they would be have the lowest gas on the block no matter what, well the station across the street heard about it and by noon the gas was going for $2.01, that is right I typed that correct $2.01, they each sold out and had to refill the tanks on that day with lines of cars waiting. For a day those two stations were back to 2004 prices. But yeah I am happy when I see anything under $3.50 and right now we are actually back in that range. I think it was $3.45 last time I filled er up and there are some places at $3.20 right now in Houston, but they are a little too far from my house to make it worth the drive, in town $3.50 is probably average right now.

    I do have to put premium in the RX8 though and it was $3.65 last time I filled up.

    This is also built in to google maps now. If you go to the Vehicross map (my maps) and then click create new map. THen Just zoom to the area you want to find gas prices. Click show Gas Buddy prices, pop in the Zip code, and now you've got markers all over the map with gas prices included. Very handy.

    Gas dipped down to $3.95 here.. you guys are lucky!
