$1.59 in northern Minnesota this morning. Maybe it's just too cold to change the sign.

Rocklin, CA (Sacramento suburb)...$2.07 regular, $2.17 mid-grade, $2.27 high-grade. We are seriously rethinking our So.Cal/Las Vegas road trip this summer. We figure that it would run us about $300 in gas for the entire trip. Granted, we could fly (only one destination), but with 5 airfares and the cost of renting a car -- it's still cheaper to drive.<BR>Anyone else changing their plans??

I saw a Union 76 station today here in S. CA that had $2.16 for regular, $2.26 for middle grade and $2.36 for premium and there were people there buying. Can't believe it as there are other less expensive places in the area.

I would LOVE for gas to be these prices again. I think its time Bush taps into the petroleum reserve. He says its there for emergencies. I think this should be considered an emergency. My family can't go on fun, road trips anymore.

I think it would be nice if President Bush would normalize relations with Iran, stop antagonizing that twerp down in Venezuela, leaned on the Saudis and the Kuwaitis to pump more(they owe us from 1991), and got out of Iraq.

Leaving politics aside, Bellingham WA in northwest generally has highest gas prices in mainland U S. On Sunday, $3.40 a gallon (reg) at less expensive Fred Meyer's, at Chevron and like, prices ranged up to $3.65 for regular!!!! Glad we're heading south and east on our driving holiday.

Meanwhile Maui and Kauai usually have highest gas prices. Kauai gas is $3.59 gallon at Costco.

PS Apologies, I was rather clueless, didn't check posting dates re gas prices.

So can't help but consider politics, what a difference a presidential term makes !?!

Costco in South San Francisco is $3.87. Give me those Bellingham rates!!!

Love seeing some of these old posts brought to the top. What a difference a few years make!

The price of gas hit $3.89 in mid-Michigan today.
