I must have picked a spiky price gas station like near the airport or in the rich section, I did the Euro conversion and liters to gallon rounding to 4liters/ gallon _________________ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐บ๐ธ ๐ ๐ ๐ |

6.5 weeks since the last post here.
I just spotted regular at $2.27.9 within my local blast radius.
Anyone else seeing drastic price drops, compared to what you saw in your locale 6 weeks ago? _________________ โIf you care for a thing long enough, it takes on a life of its own, doesn't it?

$5.49 premium in So Pasadena. _________________ I'd be UNSTOPPABLE if not for Law Enforcement and PHYSICS.
I recycle old cars and parts, other than when I rot, that's as Green as I am going to get.
Thanks to my Tesla driving neighbors, I feel more relaxed driving my SUBURBAN and old VW's.

Last week 3.89 in northeast Phoenix, and 2.85 in Mayer AZ, maybe 70 miles away.
Phoenix area requires a special blend of gasoline called Cleaner Burning Gasoline (CBG) due to its air quality regulations. This oxygenated blend is required year-round in Maricopa County and is formulated to burn more completely, which helps reduce air pollution in the metro area. The requirements change between summer and winter to account for different environmental conditions. However, scientifically (I'm a degreed chemist) I doubt that with 99+% of the vehicles there now having catalytic converters, that this really makes a difference. _________________ 1970 VW (owned since 1972) and 1971 VW Convertible (owned since 1976), second owner of each. The '71 now has the 1835 engine, swapped from the '70. Second owner of each. 1988 Mazda B2200 truck, 1998 Frontier, 2014 Yukon, 2004 Frontier King Cab. All manual transmission except for the Yukon. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=335294 http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=335297 |
