Default GAS is CHEAPER NOW

Its about FREAKN TIME man. I dont know who to thank about why the gas prices are soo cheap!!
Nothing like:
$1.41 for Premium Chevron!!! Gotta love that Techron. I swear it does clean the engine deposits!

Imagine if we had the Non-VTEC S2000
$1.21 for SUPER crummy low octane

I completely agree. When I first got this car 6 months ago, I was paying close to $30 a tank for premium; now, it's way under $20. Makes a big friggin difference when you fill up 4-5 times a month! I am now

Since I travel up and down the Interstate 5 so often, I always see the wide range of gas prices. When I finally made it down to my southern cali residence, I was shocked to pull into a 76 station and pump 91-octane at $1.09 !!!!

Last time I checked, it was at $1.05. Good Lord that's cheap!

I heard Shell builds nasty carbon deposits in the engine.

Well, I think Chevron is the best.. I live in Pleasant Hill and it is now less than $1.30 per gal. for Supreme. It only cost me less than $20 to fill up. Beat that~ I've been using Chevron for long time and i think techron kicks ass.~ Shell and 76 sux!

not to piss you off, but here I got premium for 100.9 last week!

that's the only thing I'll miss about GA when I move to cali! lowest state gas taxes in the country... i guess cali is worth the extra 40%
