$1.76 last night at QT in Kansas City. About $0.80 more for diesel but I didn't really look hard as I wasn't in the truck.

 

We need a new choice for the poll. Something like...

O  The price of Grey Poupon has a larger affect.

Looks like a great time to hit the road...especially if you get away from the West Coast.

Gas in western Massachusetts is $2.45 and Diesel around $2.95. My 2.8 Duramax gets me 24 mpg with the camper so I feel okay... beats my Taco at 18 mpg.  We are still in the workforce so are stuck to high seasons... but soon we will be allowed to travel in winter....south! A snowbird!

$3.09/gal yesterday in Camarillo, CA. I’ve already warned my chiropractor that if it goes below $3 I’ll do a backflip.
