“the price here in California is double then anywhere else.”
While I think that’s an overstatement, we just returned from Nevada today. Gas at Costco in Carson City $2.99 a gallon for regular. Same gas in the Bay Area is $3.79. And since there are no refineries in Nevada, the gas comes from CA refineries and is most likely the same CA “blend” that contains the “magic stuff” (tea tree oil and Badger’s pubic hair) that makes less pollution. Oh, and it’s really neat to pick up the hose at the pump that doesn’t have 50 pounds of “vapor recovery” crap included.
More then double what other places are charging.
