I think maybe mid 3$ range last time I pumped, but really not sure, it is not important at all. If it was that important, that means I'm driving the wrong car
Cool story bro.

Well last year people weren't driving as much so they cut back on production and now everyone is on the road again and demand is high but the supply is not there. Then the Saudi nations won't up their production so this is what happens. Then with all the Cargo setting out in the ocean with no way to unload all the shit and no truck drivers to bring it to the places its supposed to be delivered to its going to get worse since no one wants to work. Well I'm 70 so this old f-ck is done so get out and get a job if you don't have one since there are 11 million jobs that need to be filled, maybe drive a truck to get fuel to the places that need them.

Administration change and the Keystone pipeline was revoked, as well as clamping down on/revoking oil leases hasn't helped either...

Agree, where are all the US oil well companies now that prices are up. Before they couldn't make money, well they sure as hell should be able to at $78 a barrel. Get them wells a pumping.

It's actually great for the prices to go sky-high. That's the only time our state economy makes money and the government can pay all the bills. When the gas is cheap, it bleeds our state, since they have based most of the revenue on oil, not to mention they have given them significant tax cuts as well, so the revenue doesn't come in when gas prices are "normal". When it goes sky high though...it's great for the state.

$4.299 for 91 here in PHX area. My Z/28 has expensive taste but at last check it was doing pretty good at 11.5 mpg.
