How are the prices in your area? Here in SoCal is about $3.90 for 87 octane.

Best excuse for getting a motorcycle I have heard in a longtime

It's about 5.40 a gallon for the high grade stuff up here in Canada, my corner of it anyway.

$3.49 a gallon and holding steady in san antonio.

I remember when it was $0.89/gallon when I started driving in 1993 or so.

i gave the attendant $10 last night and i got 2.8 gallons...

need to start a carpool or something, maybe i'll just drive to ANWAR and start digging myself.

Every day, those little 250 Honda Enduro bikes look better and better to me-I could bomb down the trails until I get to the downtown core, then jump a few blocks over to my job(s). Best commute ever.

And what's sad, I still only pay about $60/month for gas (My Civic goes about 3 weeks on a $40 fill-I don't have a long commute)

It's about 3.60 here in Eagle Pass, Tx. Luckily for me I cross the border for work quite a bit where I find gas at about 2.80. I just started using this stuff and we'll see how it works out.

$3.85 +/- here in Connecticut...
