Re: $5.00 gas story

That's the price for FULL SERVICE gasoline in a very small resort town. Not unusual. I saw self service diesel near here for $4.08 last week. I haven't seen a full service gasoline station since I lived in CA.

Re: $5.00 gas story

In places here in WA, premium gas can be found for over $4.00
I'm sure full service would be more.

Price we pay for FJ....

Re: $5.00 gas story

Filled up last night with 91 for $3.81. Diesel at the same station was $4.19. Should be up more today, since prices here have gone up every other day

Hmm.

You know, if it wouldn't be detrimental the town, I'd say we should all ante up and get a tanker brought in just for our use...
