I don't know about anyone else, but to me this is just great!   The tag on the left is from less than 2 months ago and shows the price I paid for regular 87 octane. The tag on the right is from an hour ago and shows the price I paid for premium 91 octane. I know that many others may be paying less, but here in NorCal, where we usually have the most expensive gas (in the lower 48), this is very good news!!!  __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.

Prices always go down during election year. $1.85 for mid grade. Should be going back to where it used to be soon enough  __________________ Come get a ti-shirt

Yeah, I'm sure with the economy doing so great gas prices will shoot right back up.  __________________ ~Dave~

I wonder what gas prices have done in Europe over the past three months? Less than half like in the US? | | | | | 11-26-2008, 07:16 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Austin Posts: 3,059 |

You remember when gas dropped during bush's reelection? Not coincidental. __________________ Come get a ti-shirt
