My dude, I'm paying $6 over here in California. I would love to have $4 gas.
I stuck one on a gas station in Texas today. Gas was over $4 a gallon.
It feels good to travel through red states and shit on their orange god.
$3.99 for E0 gas is a fucking steal. Normally you pay more for E0, this is below the country average right now.
The E0 is the one that was removed. It's only an option for the 91.
That’s still dirt cheap for 91. It’s 4.509 for 87 by me right now
Yeah - prices vary a lot. Especially with state gas taxes. Texas hasn't increased its tax on gas in over 30 years, for instance. As a percentage, they're barely a quarter today what they were when I was first driving.
Found this one online
This one was in Arkansas
Gas Price per Gallon atm in Austria: 8 Dollar
Befor this Bullshit it was at around 4,50 Dollar
Currently about 605 yen ($3.90 USD) in (rural) Japan. That only seems cheap in dollars because the yen has tanked in the past few years. 5 years ago when there were somewhat similar gas prices it would've been about $5.75
Today in eastern MA. Up up up we go…..
Oof.
Sad thing is he absolutely did do that. Unlike Biden who was blamed for the chaos that came from the pandemic.

Unleaded 88, wtf ? Does the US have gasoline with such a low octane ? or is it the price in inch pounds per linear whatsadoodle ?
The US uses a slightly different Octane rating system that averages slightly lower than the more common RON. The system they use averages RON with MON which is measured under different engine conditions. The pump is labeled with (R+M)/2 to indicate this in the image. According to Wikipedia, 88 is equivalent to 95 RON.
No idea why they feel the need to be different.
I still don't understand, can you compare that to something completely arbitrary like bourbon, Coke or football ovals?
Not quite Everclear but stronger than Jack Daniel's.
Damn, that actually makes sense
