$2.19 yesterday. Darren filled his car up for under $19 day before, I put $25 in, had an 1/8th of a tank and ended up almost full. I almost did the happy dance.

$2.419 in Western New York. We'll probably never see under $2.00 because of our lovely state taxes.

have they ever given a reason for how it could go from over 4.00 to around 2.00 in less than 3 mo?

Northstar, how high did it get up there?===

Hukd.. that piqued my interest.. I found a chart for 2005 where Wisconsin was highest, followed by NY but a more recent list shows that naturally, California has zoomed to the top with combined federal/state/local taxes averaging 67.1 cents per gallon.. NY average is 60.9. Alaska is way low at 18.4, which I believe is the Federal tax.

http://api-ec.api.org/statistics/fueltaxes/upload/2008_159_GAS_MAP_OCT2008.pdf

This is for October 2008 and some states have taxes based on a % of price so it obvioiusly varies, they also weighted for amounts of each type of gas.. but diesel is on another chart.

More of a breakdown in numbers instead of map..

Sea, I don't remember other than to say it was 4 plus. I do remember paying $4.95 this summer in the City of Seward; a town about 2 hrs south.

1.67 in SC. We need to start a game to guess which day and which state will fall below $1.50 first.

$1.76 in Florida. I don't think we have any refinery's in the state.

BP wants $1.99 and advertises No Ethanol in their gas.

1.99 here in PA. Filled up the tank for $25 this morning.

(Actually, it's 1.99 on my side of the river. On the other side, it's 2.07...)
