Gas prices?
I filled up yesterday with 93 octane as usual and noticed it's 41 cents a gallon higher than regular. I don't really pay attention to gas prices very closely, but that struck me as a lot more. Is it? Is it the same everywhere?
I usually just fill up when I need it(what are you gonna do) but this got me wondering.

It varies between different gas stations. I've seen premium anywhere between .20 & .35+ higher than regular here.

Its a .30-.40 increase over regular. About a $1K/year difference from the v6 vs v8 assuming 15K miles/year.

About .35-40 cents more in Los Angeles. You might cry if you knew what regular was to begin with.

Using the highway numbers that gives you $562.50 difference per 15,000 miles. This is using $3.50 for regular and $3.90 for premium. If you average the highway/city miles together the difference per 15,000 miles is $591.67/year. Still significantly shy of $1,000. That comes to less than $50/month. |
