Can you believe how expensive gas is getting. The 91 octane in my area is around.......... about $2.10 depending on the gas station and slowly rising. .....yuck, what are the prices in your areas?

Well we have litres which are about 1/4 of a gallon but for the 91 octane we pay about 95 cents per litre even if you factor in exchange and all your price still doesn't seem as bad, so cheer up :P

Wow, really 1.65 for 91 octane? where is this? i wish i could get those prices.
I drive like at the very least 100 miles per week so i hate spending so much for gas money.

SW Missouri, where are you?
I drive 75 miles a day, so I'm real glad I'm not paying $2.10 a gallon, but if Bush has his way I will be soon. Gas was $1.30 several months ago.

I live in the Newport beach area and irvine are in California, so it isn't that bad with the miles per gallon becuase the speed limit on normal streets is about 50 miles per hour, maybe the same in your area too and i take free way sometimes to get to the other side of the city so at leat it adds more miles per gallon. Yeah, it really sucks paying for gas and since i sometimes drive to my home from my apt it adds more miles and i try to get gas at my home where it is around 2.00 per gallon, but it still sucks.
Bush will probably have his way anyway, and gas prices will slowly go up when we go to war. blah.,

gas is now $2.23 in my area for 91 octane. someone had said it may go up to about 3-5 dollars and i think they must be kidding.

i am living in lansing, michigan. u mite find this very interesting. every tuesday, for some of the gas stations, all the grades will have the same price. AND THAT TOO THE PRICE OF 87 GRADE. :D on monday the 93 will be like $1.99 and the 87 like $1.60. on tuesday, the 87, 89 &93 will be $1.60. then on wednesday it goes back up. the only thing is that u have to wait at the gas stations for a long time.

Still hovering at around $1.70 in the Mid-Atlantic (Delaware). I drive 100+ a day... and it makes me miss my 2000 Jetta TDI (45 MPG)... until I get behind the wheel of the C230K and remember why I traded... :D

2.30-2.40 here in l.a. 3 bucks is not only imaginable, but seems pretty certain. thanks to all those who voted for this moron.

Not me, and not the majority of voting Americans, or as Dubya would say "Mericans".
