I'd be a good roast this season, i could certainly lean up a little! Shoulder surgery is a bitch.
Portland gas station charging nearly $6.30 a gallon for regular
PORTLAND, Ore. — Gas prices are rising rapidly across the nation, but fuel is becoming increasingly expensive on the West Coast. Signs at one gas station in north Portland show they are charging nearly $6. 30 a gallon. The station’s price of 'Plus' is $6. 59, and the price of Shell "V-power" is...

Costco was $3.56 last weekend.
I'm jealous, under $4! My buddy took this pic yesterday in Livermore, Ca. Its getting ridiculous! We also get nailed with higher gas prices as the refineries are forced to make a Summer and Winter blend of gas every year which is a big reason CA's gas prices are always the highest.
And yet the US still has cheaper fuel that most non oil producing middle eastern countries.
Quick glance and sums and it's about $7.60 in the UK per US gallon.
That would be why most people don't drive house sized V8 SUV's/trucks in Europe etc.
edit: I'd guessed low on the exchange rate.

5.60 in town for 91 octane this morning.
(converted from Canuckistani pesos to Freedom units by online calculator)
But think of the poor's!20 cents
Our shit varies that much while we're pumping
BJ's by me was $3.75/gal the other day.
I don't even look at the price anymore. I've gotta fill the tank regardless of price.
That said, the wife and I are rearranging our operation so that we have to drive less. Not so much because of fuel costs, but because fuck driving / commuting when you can walk...

Normally yes, but lately I watch the price as it is changing so often that I have been able to save +15c a gallon just by keeping my eyes open and crossing the street.
Nope. Not gonna do it. It would just be another thing to raise my blood pressure.
Living in Germany ruined me on the whole commute thing. My commute in Germany was walking from one side of Duesseldorf Zoo-Park to the other. Along the way to work, I would stop at the bakery or the butcher. On the way home I could pop in to the Supermarket or the Dry Cleaning. All on foot. If I was in a rush, I'd ride my bike.
My 1.3 l VW Polo (great little high-compression solid valvetrain motor) spent the week parked in the company lot. On most Fridays I'd drive down to Rheingau with the doggos to hang with the wife. Monday morning I'd park the Polo again. Come to think of it, I never really looked at gas prices then, but I bet they were already more expensive than they are now in the US.
I have a solid steady income, a roof over my head and all the food I can eat.
I won't worry about gas prices like some when I am worrying about friends in Ukraine right now.

$4.09/gallon of 85, $4.79/gallon of 91, $4.89/gallon of diesel in MA today. Who's ready for 2008 repeat?
I can't believe how many people can't remember that.
Now 5.81 for 91 octane.
21 cents in 2 days.
Supposed to be another 50 odd cents in the next couple days from what I hear.
Driving around LA and saw nearly $6.50 in a few places for premium. Yikes.
Anyone seeing these yet?

I just hope this speeds the production of electric and better hybrid cars. Gimme!
Otherwise, I am relatively unconcerned about gas prices even if they go up $0.20. I sort of wish I had gotten a more efficient car, but I saved so much not buying an electric car that it more than makes up for the difference. Regardless, this will be transitory and things will change (for the worse or better) in a little while

I probably drove more in the past week than I will the rest of the year as my work will remain hybrid for the known future and can walk to 99% of my other daily activities. The majority of my miles will actually be driving to trails of one form or another. Take that mother nature.
I am trying to figure out a plan to cycle commute more this year than ever before. I think I will have to drop the kid at daycare, come home, then take the bike to go out.
That is where the majority of my miles have gone in the last few years.
Hauling the bike to someplace that at least has something called trails.
Otherwise just the odd errand.
