You will likely find most across the US about the same within a dime either way.

Were happy! Not so much on account that fuel prices are high, but we are an all diesel family, and finally diesel is less than gas for the last few weeks. Above are fuel prices at our local Fred Meyer store. Hans

New GMC 2500 HD duramax awaits my pleasure at the dealership!
I am rolling the dice in hopes of a better incentive....we will wait till 2:00 tomorrow to see if GM puts more money on the table! Hurt watching my old big red duramax drive off after the sale but the new one, I hope gives us as much towing and ease of driving as the old one.
Alas I do not think a new Volt will be in my future as the lease for them has doubled! I am thinking of going for the Buick GS, get pretty good mileage and is scarey fast. The other side is it is easier to get in and out, when you are 6'3+ and 67 years old one is not as limber as a young'n. I think the mileage is 21 to 30 or there abouts.

Here in southern Kentucky we have cabal that has control of gasoline/diesel prices and they run consistently higher than the surrounding counties. I paid $3.81 (gas) this afternoon down four cents from yesterday. The prices go up 25cts at a time and down by a couple of pennies. The gas lords here have us by the throat. The municipal govt has been pressed to investigate but they won't because they're in on it. Even the federals have been contacted recently but I don't trust them either.

It was a world market before fracking and there are massive shale deposits all around the world. You appeared to be unaware of any of this with your initial question. Much of what you know about fracking seems to come from the antifrackers that are supported by Putin and the UAE who are both spend massive amounts of money to try to stop fracking in the US and elsewhere in order to keep the world price high and to control the market. I don't think it is working though because even Tommom obviously approves of it now.

I kinda love when real people argue with the simple. Fezziwig do you really think this is worth a keystroke, I mean playing with the ignorant?
The price to RV is only given to us by the generosity of the oil barons and the price of NG is do to us by the generosity of the fracking thieves. What a concept until you realize that they are out to screw us daily. Those that would propose NG and Oil are nothing but trolls for these thieves.
Summer is coming and nothing like an old fashion gas war is welcome!

You have gotten your antifracking comments and incorrect beliefs from folks bought and paid for by them. I posted them because a poster said it wasn't happening, I posted the article on CNG prices because another poster didn't think they were true. When you guys post weird stuff, I try to correct the record. By the way, the point of the article was not about the actor, but the Emir who paid for the film so folks like you would be taken in and his Arab natural gas deposits would be protected. Looks like he got his money's worth in your case.

Wasting time seeing who can ferret out and report the most "accurate sources" for the "truth" in oil/gasoline pricing is so fruitless, the fact remains that gasoline and diesel are much higher now than not all that long ago. What I still don't understand is why there was NO uproar from congress way back when the "lords" of oil raised gasoline prices $2.00 a gallon overnight. Even with the current regime in DC there is still no effort to make gasoline/diesel less expensive. And I've heard the old cliché diatribes about drilling being more costly and blah, blah, blah. It's all gotten very old so we're spending more and more for gasoline to go to the pump to buy more gasoline. A curse on those who are costing us all more money so they can be wealthier.

"A curse on those who are costing us all more money so they can be wealthier. " Amen brother! and also on their trolls that spew their corporate lies and bull...
New truck still sitting at dealer, waiting to see if GM bumps its incentives before paying for it!
Also have the Regal GS there same song waiting for the incentives to be more before getting it.
You would think they would give me a bushel and case price for buying both of them! LOL

True unfettered capitalism, it's always been what the market will bare. I thought that was the American way.
Now if you want regulation, price controls, and equity between the working class and the 1%, I'm OK with that too, but be prepared to endure backlash. "Socialism/Communism" come to mind, as well as being branded politically left.
I don't know that we aren't paying too much for fuel. I don't like $4 a gallon fuel, but in terms of inflation I wonder how much more a gallon we are paying today versus what we paid in the 70's and 80's according to incomes back then.
I personally do like it's making people change their ways, myself included. Last year I parked my favorite tow vehicle, a 454 powered Suburban that got 7-8mpg and upgraded to a newer truck that does the same job at 11.3mpg towing the same trailer. Hans
