Hmmm...

Now I’m really confused.

How is it that Colorado is enjoying $2.98 regular? Do they have a refinery close thereabouts that turns that Canadian oil into gas?

Regular is $3.47 here in central Texas and we not only have oil but refineries scattered all about.

Someone please enlighten me.....

Pump price is a wide combination of factors — state and local taxes, property values, operating costs, etc. As the price of oil rises and falls, all of these prices will rise and fall in tandem with them, but they will still have these variances based on the local costs of doing business.
