Really? In Northern California somewhere? Where?

I'm still able to get Regular in the Tacoma, WA area for just under $4. But only by shopping around.

The talk of stations not lowering their price even if their costs go down just doesn't work. Its all about competition. If one station "does the right thing" in the area and lowers prices as costs go down, the others all will as well or they won't be selling any gas.

Ye this is some bullshit, $3.50 is still extremely expensive... yuppydydoo I get to save about 12$ a tank up big deal... if gas dropped below 2$ a gallon I might be a little happy then but we all know that won't ever happen...

4.50 here and it is going up to 4.58 tomorrow so the gas stations ran out of premium...


Problem with this country is EVERYONE uses premiums, even on their little crappy cars that do not need it and they all put like $3 or $6.25 of gas in their cars and caused HUGE lines... Prime example my gf has a nissan tida and swears if she doesnt put premium the motor will blow up... I keep telling her that she is just ripping herself off but she willl not listen... Hell my other car, a luxury acura which should run on 91 runs better on 89!

Considering I just paid $4.26/gal, I somehow doubt I'll be seeing $3.50 anytime soon...

It just needs to drop. Just paid $100.00 to fill my truck yesterday (3.80+ for regular) and it's almost empty today (a lot driving for work). I figured I would take my camaro tonight and on the weekend, I get in and it's almost empty!

I paid $4.65 for Shell 93 on Monday today I saw it was down to $4.59
I doubt it ever goes below $3 a gallon again. In my state anyway.
