Jim Norman Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 I drove out to Tulsa. I think the highest price I paid was $3.59 and the lowest was maybe $ 3.39. Imagine my surprise when the same station that was $3.59 out was $ 4.19 home! I was told they went up $0.17 in one day! Halfway home the prices got crazy, varied by station over $0.30 at the same exit! More interesting was the fact that Diesel was apparently unaffected by all this. In many stops Diesel was cheaper than Regular by as much as $0.30. I think that there is definitely more than a little gouging going on.

From the Here-We-Go-Again Department: I dropped in on the nearby Chevron station about 48 hours ago to notice that supreme had gone from $3.18 to $3.30 overnight!!! Holy crap.

Pat Miles Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 My Suzuki DL 1000 VStrom is getting a lot more riding time. My mountain bike get's pressed into use for the shorter trips. It's going to get a helluva lot worse before it even thinks about getting better. Remember this when you vote. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
