A local news station reports that regular unleaded gasoline costs $7.59 per gallon, while premium gas costs $8.50 per gallon.

A s prices for commodities continue to increase across the country, one California town is seeing gas prices above $7 per gallon.

According to KFSN, the only gas station in the remote central coast town of Gorda boasts the nation's highest gas prices.

The local news station reports that regular unleaded gasoline costs $7.59 per gallon, while premium gas costs $8.50 per gallon.

This town has been home to the nation's highest gas prices for quite some time, and the problem has only been exacerbated due to the global supply chain crisis.

Residents of Gorda have to travel over 40 miles to the next nearest gas station if they want prices below $7.

Gorda is situated along the historic Big Sur coastline, about 40 miles from the college town of San Luis Obispo.

Sure am glad Joe killed the Keystone Pipeline. I get so angry when gs was priced at $1.98/gallon.

In less than a year, Biden has managed to engineer an oil shortage in a country that had trouble finding someplace to store oil under Trump. They were keeping it in tankers because every tank farm in the country was full.

FJB - Look for gasoline to move up at least another Dollar per gallon.

When the Biden Amin first started their war on energy, I predicted it would hit $8 within 6 months. It appears I was wrong, but close, sadly.

Democrats and communists believe there is such a thing as “price gouging”. The rest of us believe in the free market. If you don’t like a price don’t pay it.

California is a desert.

The last 50 years of plentiful water are anomaly.

Liberals only wake up to food and gas prices. And possibly freezing or roasting.

1. Diesel prices rise right along with gas prices.
2. Trucks run on diesel.
3. If you got it, a truck brought it
4. The price of everything you want, need, gotta have is therefore going up.

Let’s go, Brandon. ESAD.

There is no such thing as β€œprice gouging”. There is only supply and demand. If the demand exceeds the supply the price rises until the demand drops to match the supply.
