30 cents x 10 gallons = $3 more per fill-up. That's a cup of coffee every week/week and a half for me.

/shrug

Prices should drop once they get a better idea of the storms impact on the distribution and refinement of gas and oil.

There was minimal damage to the refineries after the hurricane. So that's not going to affect prices.

And $28.80 to fill up in Richmond? Try $34.32 to fill up in the NoVa area. This is ridiculous.

no kidding. The prius is a pretty cool car. I had rented one for about a week. I liked the touch screen engine system. It shows all the stats, mileage average, battery charge, etc. It was pretty cool.
