Gas prices here (mid Michigan) have come back down a little this week.
Regular was $1.57 gal. today. As long as it stays close to that price it won't have any effect on my summer driving.

Gas prices have no effect on our cruises. If it is a planned event and we want to go we go. Gas prices have risen dramatically in Oregon. My wife paid $1.84 for regular for her PT and I paid $1.97 for super for my GT. Same gas station. We always get ripped here in Oregon. Other states don't know how good they got it.

Oregon doesn't sound all that bad. Orange County, California Premium is running $2.399 to $2.499.

Filled up my wife's car today and thought I got a "good deal" paying "only" $2.02 per gallan for premium. [V] [:0] Gas prices here in Washington State have absolutely no bearing on our PT Cruiser Club's planned cruises and other events/activities.

When you pay $20,000 for your Cruiser, $2,000-3,000 for upgrades, a few hundred for auto insurance every six months...$2 for Premium is not going to stop us from having fun with our GT. [8D]

Here in Maryland Supreme gas hovers around $1.97 a gallon. The newsdogs say that gas prices will reach $3.00 a gallon by summer time. [:0] I got an email that said that everyone should boycott Mobil and Exxon gas stations to try to start a price war. I don't buy my gas from them anyway, too expensive. Anyone else think this is a good idea? [8)]
