Headed up in about 3 weeks. Have a motor home rented. I’m wondering what’s the fuel prices now for gas. Anchorage, Valdez, Glennallen, FBKS areas.
Thanks

$3.49 or higher in Anchorage, $3.54 in Trapper Creek and last time I swung through Cooper Landing it was $3. 24 or thereabouts. I'd bet higher gas prices in Glennallen and i'll be in Valdez this coming weekend so we'll see how gas prices are down that way.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Approaching $4 in Gleanallen and Delta You are likely among the few here that remember pulling into a station and saying, "A dollars worth, Please". (That would get you 7 to 9 gallons). Or even, "fifty cents worth, Please".

ALASKA is a "HARD COUNTRY for OLDMEN". (But if you live it wide'ass open, balls'to the wall, the pedal floored, full throttle, it is a delightful place, to finally just sit-back and savor those memories while sipping Tequila).

Diesel was 3.29 where I fueled in Fbks day before yesterday. 3.06 in Healy, 3.15 (I think) in Girdwood. A few days before it wa 3.09 at #Bears just out of Wasilla, Fairbanks side.
3-Bears and Healy will be your lowest prices, almost always. Pick your station in Healy- there was about a 20cent difference between the two stations, a quarter mile apart.

Vitas usually has cheaper gas too, there is one in Trapper Creek along with a 3 Bears that are always in competition with each other, which is very good for we consumers.

Or even, "fifty cents worth, Please". As a kid, I worked weekends at a Webb Oil station and there was a gas war going on......I pumped a hell of a lot of $0.17/gal gasoline while I was making a buck an hour. So that buck I made would buy 6 gallons of gas for my 53 BelAir.

Those prices dont seem too bad for Alaska. Just a bit higher than we are paying in Western New York.. With crazy Joe and his gang in charge, inflation is going to make that seem cheap before long.

We're up to #3.59 per gallon in Eagle River now, might have to stock up before it gets ridiculously out of hand.

My son in Fairbanks just told me that it's $3.59 there.
The question isn't who is going to let me; it's who is going to stop me.

Better get it while it’s “cheap”.

Get it before it is like ammo and simply not available at any price. There are several EMP tools near Alaska, but I doubt any belonging to America.

3.54 here in the valley looking like 2008 all over again. Every sorry sob that voted for Biden I hope they are crying at the gas pump.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.
