I think that gets added at the regional distribution points.  Each state can vary in the ethanol content, I know in Minnesota it was increased a bit in the regular 87 unleaded blend.  Most people are probably not aware that crap is in stuff other than E85!

If that's true as you say and I haven't any doubt, it's solely because they have their heads stuck up their butts.

$1.50s showing up, now, at Costcos.  Which means the SuperAmerica led gouge should be about $1.899, in which millions of suckers will line up and pay.

My gas-guzzling V8 would love that.

It's been hanging at $2.09 for a few weeks here.
Of course, @ $.080/gallon in state and federal taxes puts quite a high floor under it

I saw $1.59 just a few minutes ago. When I bought my trusty Ford Excursion in 2003, gas was $1.51.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

For the first time since I drove a spec, the counter on the gas pump failed to reach $20, from essentially empty.  $19.93 to be exact.

$1.559 at Costco.

As $1.40s start showing up in the Twin Cities, SuperFraud declares a gouge mark of $1.799.

I paid 1.40 at Sams today. It was weird.....I'm watching the pump move ever so slow, thinking i'll never fill up this will take forever. I time warped to the days it took 70 bucks to fill me truck. $23.00...filled up...left.

Dang, I thought I would be low man today, paid $1.50 at CostCo, then I see Don't $1.40!

Y'all got lower taxes there and are closer to a distribution hub I reckon.
