Yes, $4.09 yesterday, $4.19 today. Can hardly wait until tomorrow..................

And so, in a few days I'm headed where the tea is sweet, the reptiles are sassy and gas is about $2/gal cheaper. B)

~$2 per gallon price difference between SC and CA is astonishing.  Especially since CA's last reported tax is 61.20 cents per gallon and SC is 20.75 cents.

 

Fed excise tax is currently 18.4 cents.

 

Kind of makes you wonder where the balance of proceeds for the price charged is going out there in CA.

Just before the Pacific Graft and Extortion Co blackout (no offense to anyone working there) I topped off my Tundra and filled 3 jerry cans for my generator at $4.19 gal. Let's see 27 gals for the truck and 15 gallons for the generator = 42gals x $4.19 arrrrrghh!!!

Boggles the mind (and wallet) that the same 42 gals of gas would cost a person $46 more in Bridgeport and in Virginia $80 less.

So Mr. BC, if you paid for a 15 gallon fill up in Lee Vining it would have cost you an additional $45. No commentary, just showing off my basic math skills that I did in my head. :)
