It's still 1.65 here but we're always behind the trend. We're last to go down and last to go up.

3-4 weeks ago gas was $1.29 here in Indy then $1.59-$1.79-$1.99 in short order. What excuse has big oil come up with this time for the rapid increase in price?

That's because you have to pay someone to pump Ethyl for you

But on the bright side, your government doesn't think you're smart enough to pump it yourself.

Summer blends are kicking in. EPA at work. Refineries have to start turning out something like 27 different blends for summer. Read one source that said it was over 40 different blends. Drives up costs.

I did pass one station where diesel was less than regular unleaded, first time I've seen that in a long time. As for driving a Prius, forget it only phags drive Prius.
