I was making $4.17 an hour in 1969. The problems were tho, keeping your body from physically collapsing or getting out-right killed. Anyhow, gas here in W.Washington is $2.46 per gallon. Idaho has it for $2.18. Yeah, wish the gas war in that Washington town was still going, selling gas for $1.26.
Here in Northwestern Oregon the current price of Costco Regular 87 octane in Warrenton, Oregon (10% Ethanol added) is $2.599 / gallon. Costco gas is Top Tier.
Still, 100% gasoline(no ethanol) provides 8% to 5% better MPG, smoother & quieter engines, & a trace extra low RPM torque, so auto trannies don’t have to downshift as often, going up hills or changing cruising speeds. Tho gov’t regulations cause drivers to pick cheaper 10% ethanol gasoline, your engine prefers 100% ethanol-free gasoline.
Here here in Oregon where I live you can buy at some gas stations non ethanol premium gasoline for another $1.00 - $1.25 per gallon more, not exactly a bargain. So for a 15 gallon tank of gas that would be and extra $15.00-$18.75 more. For that extra price you can get an additional 5.77 - 7.21 gallons extra based on 87 octane w/ 10% Ethanol added @ $2.599/ gallon.
Like I said, payers chose 10% ethanol blend to use(burn inefficiently) thru their engines. But, your engine is telling you that it prefers to efficiently burn 100% ethanol-free gasoline.
About $3.45 here. But I drive thru a lot of different suburbs , some more affluent than others . in DuPage . Cook , and Lake counties. Some are as high as $3.70.
We've caught up with, or passed, Kentucky's fuel prices, though, as you can see by Ford Man's post. I noticed when I was in western Kentucky last month.
The MINI recommends premium-grade fuel. I use a Chevron that is conveniently near my house. Last fill-up (8/24) ran me $4.959/gallon. I think that's after the 20 cent discount from my grocery chain rewards, even. Not sure how much less regular is than premium.
87 octane E/10 was $2.699 on 9/16/21 at Murphy's in Russellville, KY. If I remember correctly there's about a $ .30 premium added to each higher octane grade.
$3.399 on Sat Sep 18 in Naperville IL. For 87 E10 , of course. You don't even wanna know what the higher octanes sell for.
E/10 is $2.929 at Murphy's in Russellville, KY. 10/12/21 Sunday 10/10/21 I saw E/15 for $2.799. Prices are up about $ .15 in the last week or week and half.
Prices rounded to the nearest cent. Idaho’s lowest gas prices, specially in southern Idaho, were ALWAYS lower than Washington states’ lowest gas prices, say by 15-25 cents. Presently tho, Washington states’ lowest gas price (Wapato, southeast of Yakima) is $3.10 per gallon, while Idaho’s lowest is $3.18 in Lewiston. Of course, our western Washington lowest prices are $3.30 per gallon(Bellingham Costco). Our lowest Snohomish county price is Smokey Point Costco at $3.50.
Hi All: $4.099 at my nearby Costco in Carlsbad, CA this week. I was driving the 2021 MIrai for 10k miles two months ago so only visited the gas pump once to refuel the Prius Prime in Sept. 2021 Toyota Mirai FCEV Just minutes after completing its Guinness World Record setting 845-miles without refueling journey. All new Mirai's arrive with 6-years or $15,000 worth of fuel for for free which sweetens its allure for California only buyers. This month I have been driving the 2021 Porsche Taycan all over gods green earth while completing work on an Electrify America Network upgrade. 2021 Porsche Taycan RWD Taycan owners receive 3-years of free charging on the Electrify America Charging network so that has been a free 13k miles drive as well. After two months, I am not missing the pump at all but like all good things, they come to an end. An end means the 21 Prius Prime with a 100.2 LMPG after 24.7k miles. 2021 Toyota Prius Prime Although just an LE trim, its efficiency is beyond noteworthy. Wayne
You guys get all the cool cars. Here in Illinois , it's a "compliance" car , one they don't try to sell. Same with many other small-niche BEV and PHEV's. Grumble , grumble.
