I live in central Illinois. Regular gas is pushing $4 a gallon with premium pushing $5 a gallon. I would guess this is related to Hurricane Beryl blowing through the gulf coast and Houston. Ouch...

.....and a depletion of our emergency oil reserves and our lack of ability to replace the empty tanks with domestic oil.
I live in dupage...reg @ 4.20
hasn’t gone up here in MN yet.
I bought my Scion FR-S new in 2013. I had to fill it up every two days because of my 150 mile round trip commute. It required premium, but that was ok because premium was twenty cents more a gallon. Not any more. Fortunately, I retired three years ago and use it so rarely that I worry about the gas in it ageing out. But so far so good. It spends most of its time in the garage with a trickle charger hooked up.
If the price difference was the same back then as it is now, I’d never have bought it. Now, I just enjoy watching it reach “classic car” status. I swear it is increasing in value as I sit on it. And it costs almost nothing in tabs to own a car here.
I live down state. Gas has been pushing higher for a few months even before the hurricane disruption.
Kamala “That’s not high enough”.
Fuel is about $5.50 on average for regular and about $5.80 for diesel north of SF. Diesel is a little over $6 on the interstates in CA.
Here in Texas it’s around $3.00 per gallon.
My car takes premium. Prices are about 80 cents to a dollar over the price of regular gas..
they need to start making ads showing the horror of a voter looking at the price of gas and then switch to a clip of Harris laughing about it.
Peoria, AZ
With UPSIDE $3.23
$1.97 before Joe and Jill Fkd everyone!
Back home in East Tennessee I’m paying $2.99. I’m in Auburn Hills, MI for two weeks and paid $3.79 yesterday. Yuk.
Exactly.
$3.80 Reg for central Illinois. I am afraid to look for Chicago land...
Did Joetato empty the strategic reserves again?
Yeah. Last fillup in Alabama was $3 and some change.
Gas prices in Illinois and neighboring states are high due to the shutdown of ExxonMobil’s Joliet Refinery about a week ago.
Lots of articles around about it.
BP in Whiting, Indiana is getting ready to go into their fall outage as well
I'm sure these things are being factored into local prices skyrocketing in the last week.
$3.04 at Costco 15 miles north of Denver.
