That's Humboldt

Copied directly from the article...take it up with Fox News I see lots of misspelled words in "journalism"

Starting to feel like a step child here.

I just paid 3.58 on Monday.

Yesterday in Joplin

Gas price 16oct14 by weimsnks, on Flickr

payed 3.03 at a injun GS.

We just went under $3.00

I paid $3.49 last weekend so don't feel like the lone stranger. People here are blaming it on the 10 cent fuel tax implemented last year. I guarantee you we are still at the bottom of the fuel tax list......

There is hope.....

$3.59 here.

Me too. The gas prices seemed to climb with the elevation.

Surprisingly, you're in the middle of the pack with regard to fuel taxes.

Just drove cross country 3 weeks ago coming back west from the far NE. By far MO. was the lowest with the mid west states overall having lower prices than Can-of-duh, NE US, and western US, both in gas and diesel, although not as much in diesel as regular. This makes no sense to me as my understanding is theses states are further from refineries than the more expensive states.

edited to add: doesn't the price of gas always come down right before elections, then rise right after.

I hear ya'. Humboldt, TN is fully a buck cheaper than any station near me.

Our tax was 14 cents prior to the increase

$3.40 in Lander WY today. Just because they can.

Are your new fuel tax revenues marked for specific areas (roads, education, etc)? That was a pretty big jump.

Years ago they instituted a 5 cent tax of which 2 cents went to road repair, 2 cents to education and 1 cent to cities/counties. This last one went to road repair but cannot be used for upgrades.

Fuel taxes can play a big role in the price you pay at the pump.

$3.08 here....

Interesting and perplexing.

When I started driving my late dad's Buick in the 50's gasoline was $.25 a gallon except in a gas war when it was $.179!

And they pumped for you, made change at your car door, cleaned your windshield and offered to check the oil.



We would pull into a station and ask for two dollars worth, drive around and bring the car home with the gauge on low.

Crude has lost over $20/bbl in the past 3 weeks which is obviously why gas prices are tumbling. It's always slow to come down and fasts to rise. Just the way it works.

Those states are all along the Colonial Pipeline. The Western US is a supply line all it's own, not really connected to the rest of the pipeline system. There is one pipeline that connects the West to Texas, but that's so Southern CA refineries can sell excess refined product eastward.

$2.84 in Albany Georgia

$2.83 here in Colorado Springs today.

Paid $2.799 earlier this week.

I paid $2.80 today, I'll be happy when it drops to a $1

Paid $2.94/gal in Birmingham, AL this AM.

Paid $2.65 in Memphis a couple of hours ago.

Not good. Not good at all.

$3.15 yesterday.

$2.95 here in. N. Texas, here today.

I paid $3.31 for diesel today and noticed regular was $2.91- Globe, AZ
