Premium (92) goes for about $4.35-$4.45 depending on which part of the island you gas up on. But like the earlier posts, "you want to play you have to pay" and as we say here in Hawaii. "It's the price you pay to live in paradise". I've been here for about 25 years and loving it. One of the best things the Marine Corps did for me was retiring me early from the war.

4.05 yesterday here in Northern Massachusetts. That is for 93 octane Sunoco

$4.39 in walnut creek CA.

We've got 3 oil refineries within 30 miles of us... and somehow the middle of the country gets cheaper gas.

Go figure...

In 2005 gas prices were $2.94, which is a 204% increase from$1.44 four years ealier for Bush. National gas prices where $2.10 in 2008 and as of almost exactly 4 years after that average was taken (september) gas has taken a 170% increase under Obama. *It's really all simple math that you, or anybody could have done before they said anything about Obama care. So under bush we see a 250% increase, and under Obama we see a 170% increase.*

Again, I won't give you crap without answering the question, so gas is $3.58 a gallon here and I fill up about once a week.*It's hard to see 300 miles to a tank.

If i recall Bush had two terms? Obama still in One.

As far as prices it's multiple reasons why it's so high as one poster said in her area fires.
