Around here in FL, it's about $2.35 - $2.40 for 93 per gallon.

Which in my honest opinion; at a $12 barrel of oil, that is still price gouging.

I would expect the price to be $1.50 at most per gallon unless massive taxes have been instilled which brings about the question, what is the oil barrel price goes to $40 again? lol Will the price be $4.50 per gallon? Last time that happened was when oil was at $140 a barrel... point being there is some shady business going on in the background.

Regular here around me is $1.24 and 93 octane is $2.01 unless you get into downtown Nashville where it is about 30 to 40 cents more.

I live in NY and work in NJ. I saw $2.29 for 93 this morning in NY. I usually fill up in NJ. At first it was because NJ was so much cheaper, but then they raised the taxes in NJ. I still fuel up in NJ because I hate pumping my own gas. Will report back later on NJ cost.

Regular was $0.74/L this morning with premium (91) being $0.90/L. But then, gas has almost always been cheaper in the States.

Fairly certain it has a lot to do with the taxes imposed by the government, with my government daily devising new ways to dip their hand into my pocket. Then again, as a tax professional, I too am daily devising ways to make sure I keep as much of my money as I can. Ahh, the games we play.

Kansas City, MO Quiktrip 87/$1.46 91/$1.96 I think the cheapest in our area is Sams or Costco 87/$1.33 91/$1.69. Not alot of driving for our household so our fuel bill is way down.

I meant to ask you this before: Are you tuned to run it or do you mix to an octane certain?

Cool! I mix the 110 about 2:1 with 93 octane for the normal tune. It works well!

NJ update - Paid $2.55 for 93 at Exxon. 87 was $1.85. I think someone else mentioned the price difference between 87 and 93. I used to be a lot less. $0.70?!?!?!

The prices at the off brands are less. I normally only do Sunoco, Exxon or BP
