I wish my rig wan't puking transmission fluid, I'd gas up and run from this Monday storm on the way, but it will probably get sh8ty  south of here, too.  It looks like a bomb, and the latest forecast puts a  bull's-eye of snow 12" deep on top of South  Central OK.

It's been lower here than the surrounding area. That's unusual due to price fixing by the local suppliers. One station sets the price at a certain time. The others park nearby and wait for todays price. There's one small station that doesn't play the game, sometimes cheaper and other times not.
 We've had a state official talk about it and encouraged everyone to complain to the proper authorities since they ignored him.

 Under $1.60 for regular here in SC. Premium is under $2 and I can get non ethanol for about $2 as well.

Down to $1.79 around here in the west side of Central Arkansas. Every little bit helps.

I saw a couple places in Sachse, TX last week for $1.59/gal; that's with ethanol of course.  My fillups in the CR-Z usually make me smile considering it takes about 9 gallons and I usually get 38+mpg, 41+ if I drive like grandma.
