$2.439 in West Terre Haute.  About 40% more than 14 months ago, but well under the $3.209 a couple of months back.  In July/August I was paying $1.20 U.S. per liter in Nova Scotia and Newfoundland.  Not cheap.  Makes riding the KLR even more enjoyable!

Diesel fuel was upwards of $3.50/gal out west one month ago when I was in Sturgis, SD for the Bike Rally. I paid $2.75/gal this AM in Central Jersey.
That #2D is more than gasoline is pure contempt and greed by Big Oil as it cost 1/3 the price to refine as gasoline!

For comparison, I was paying around $3.30-$3.40/gal for premium for the Hog out in SD, and it's only 91 Octane!

I don't care, it's still too much.. way too f***ing much! Gas has crept down slower than the way it sky rocketed to what it has become. Anyone remember paying $1.60-$1.80 less than two years ago? Oh yes and Charles, I think I have more gear than you! na na na na naaa! Whooooo!

About $2.80 in Downers Grove IL.  An almost $.35 drop since last week!
The only thing that stays the same is change.

I agree with you Adam,(about the gas not the gear for I HAVE THE MOSTEST GEAR BUUAAHAHAHAA), the gas is going back down way tooooo slow.

...Dagnapit...I remember the good old gas war days of the early 1970s (before OPEC discovered it ruled the world) when three fuel stations in our little town got the price of gas down to 12-cents per gallon.....I was driving a Honda 175 Scrambler and could drive all week on 50-cents..........I won't say I got the most gear, but If somebody does have more than me they need serious counseling....

$3.09 this morning at the local rip-off 76 station that hasn't got the message everyone else is lowering prices.  I dropped my kid of at school and just made it to the station as my DTE read 0.  At least Cali can tie Colorado.  LOL

2.60 in jersey, (outside of princeton)
by the way, i dont actually LIVAE in jersey, only work there...
not that there is anything wrong with jersey that is..
 
anyone remember back in 1996 or 1997 when gas hit $0.99 a gallon...

olieoliver

I remember when it was $0.40 a gallon.

I don't remember 40 cents a gal, or 50 or 60...I don't recall much prior to getting married 15 years ago.
 
And about this I've got the most gear bragging rights, sound more like a male compensation affliction... ;)

olieoliver

Mike! I sure hope your wrong about the compensation theory, because if you're right I'll have to change my name to Olivia.

mikedm

LOL. Well Olivia, if basses were shoes you'd need a bigger closet, you fashion plate, you.
 
$2.30 in my neighborhood, just to keep on track. At my house it's much cheaper and just as aromatic...the dog burps.

Gas in Jacksonville Fl today on the way home was $2.57 for regular unleaded and $2.99 for premium.  That's very near the interstate so not to bad relativly speaking.
