It is mostly determined by local demand, because refineries operate on a zero inventory basis and they try to match the price to the demand. Typically what gas stations sell their gas at will be affected by what they bought the gas for at the refinery.
Depending how rural you are, another factor is that prices tend to be lower in the rural areas as gas states try to generate demand by giving a bit of a discount at the pump.

You buy a Tesla for the software as much if not more than the fact that it’s EV.None of these other manufacturers offer that, and they never will.
Yeah - sure...

The percentages fail to tell the true story.
Tesla outsells all the other American EV manufacturers combined by a very wide margin

Funny thing. Despite sales shifting from Tesla to GM, buyers are increasingly refusing to buy GM EV models.

Teslas or any EVs still only make practical sense for one segment of auto buyers: urban drivers in relatively warm climates who can charge their vehicles overnight at home and can afford a 2nd ICE-based vehicle for road trips. Who are such people? Largely upper-middle-class liberals living in places like L.A. or San Francisco.”
I suspect that most/many EV buyers who fit your description don’t take vehicle road trips but fly instead.

Haha I am retired and don’t need EV auto to commute. I quit golf at age 75 due to move to Florida and gave up my membership at a country club in WA state. Now my exercise is beach walks.
