Almost giddy! We filled up the Lady's Crosstrek down the hill this morning for $3.03 gallon regular unleaded. Still $3.69 here at home.

 

$3.19 gal in Fair Oaks Ca Mobil. Nice when it took 34 gals to top off. We Californians get excited when it gets close to $3.00.

We now live north of Charleston, SC along the ICW and Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge.

 

Regular is ~$1.97 and was $1.93 at COSTCO on Friday.

 

I expect gas prices to spike upwards quite a bit in the next few days with the Saudi's reducing output by 50%.  Even though they are only reducing their output of refining sour to sweet crude.

I hear ya - locally it's $3.65 - $3.79. The Mrs has a Chevy Volt and fills her 8 gallon tank once a month. 1/4 the price and 1/4 the time it takes to fill up.

Hang on the Overseas events are going to trickle down. The good news is North America has a ton of oil and new technologies to retrieve it.

Prices have jumped to $2.19 for regular since the attack on the Saudi oil fields.

 

Diesel was $2.65 and now $2.79 most places.  Prices are much higher along the I-95 corridor.
