Gas prices f**king went up overnight. It is over $4 ALL OVER now (where I live). Wtf? Gas station where I filled up two days ago, which was $3.93 at the time, was $4.09 today. AHHHHHHHHHHHH
So, now the average in CA has hit $4.00  I don't know how much more of this I can take. So, how high do gas prices have to be before you change your habit? And what will you do? As for me, I think if it goes to $5, I'll buy/lease a prius or something.... gah, I can't even afford a new car but it's going to get to the point where I can't afford a tank of gas, either. /rant. |

I just got my bill from Chevon, and it totaled to $652.49 for this entire month. It made me cry a little. :(
Its up to 4.21 here. Why can't I live in Hunington Beach... it's only 4.01 there. T_T |

T_T I LIVE IN HUNTINGTON BEACH AND gas is DEFINITELY not 4.01! unless you're talking about unleaded. then it's a little cheaper than that. 3.83 to 3.93 but premium is 4.23 |

Honestly, people who are willing to pay for premium gas shouldn't whine about the prices. Also, what's this about people paying gas bills? Do you have a particular card you use? |

There was this debate about it didn't really matter what gas you use, it's all the same really. As for paying gas bills, I'm guessing they use their credit card to charge when they go to the gas station. I do that sometimes. |

There was this debate about it didn't really matter what gas you use, it's all the same really. A lower octane would result in lowering the longevity of the engine life, and higher end models (i.e. sport cars) requiring premium might break down after having been filled up with "regular unleaded." Higher octane allows you to have the maximum efficiency out of your engine, ONLY if the engine requires a higher octane. I know the rx7 had a little hiccup with 89 or 87, instead of 91. BTW Hawaii has 92 octane gas. Man it was so expensive there, last summer. D: BTW BLABLA I work 12 hours a week, but I make around $440/month as well. Damn you and your $12/hour! lol |
