Gas Price Change For You

[CAP1]

Its over priced and really isn't all that useful, there are pure electric cars that leave the volt in the dust without a drop of gas

From what I recall reading a month ago (To lazy to look up) you get between 30-40 miles on the battery then its back to a gas engine. With the Nissan Leaf for example you get a 100 miles range, and a minimum of 60 miles if you abuse the heck out of it

 the battery goes about 35 miles. then the gas engine kicks in to start running the electrics, and/or recharging the battery.

[CAP1]

when you look at the extra cost of the vehicle and compare to what you might save in gas it doesn't save you anything compared to a reasonably efficient sedan.

 THIS.

 this also holds true for just about any of the hybrids.

Filled the Wrangler (19 gallons) this morning for  ~ $65.

$3.87/gallon

I stuck the nozzle into my gas tank, bent over and cried "RAPE" 

87 Oct.?  If you call that RAPE you might want to keep your children locked inside when I roll into town - eager for my serving at your local station for only $3.87, man that's nice!

[Babalonian]

Just paid $4.20 U.S./gallon for 93 octane.  A tank full (13 gallons) usually lasts between 475 and 500 miles.

I paid $4.219 per gallon of 87 last night.  That's pretty high for Texas...

[Babalonian]

Welp, I'm going to stop whining about high gas prices....some of you are paying a lot more 

Wait, what?... but I've only started bi!@#n'!

OK, but seriously, I'm actually happier walking out of this thread than I came walking in, and that's rare.  Seems compared to the nation, CAs aren't overly-inflated.

You paid 4.21... It must have gone down, I got it for 4.19 a gallon. Norcal slightly cheaper maybe?

[mbailey]

3.97 a gallon, 26 gallon tank...over 100 to fill the truck.

2011 Silverado 1500...luckily it has flex fuel...saves me a little bit.

I feel your pain  2005 4dr 2500 Silverado and a 2010 4dr 2500 Silverado     $100 to fill each one

Thank god my company gives me a car.....and a gas card

To bad here in US, the people can't buy the diesel variety of cars like the ford focus which is sold in United Kingdom and Europe. 3.79 gallon in Wis. I have not filled my 92 honda accord latley.

^^^ This. I'd love a diesel wagon for work. 50mpg in a car that actually is functional.

i almost got an old mercedes diesel for cheap....like under 500 bucks cheap. the mechanic across the street beat me to it.

 you say that jokingly......but the last time gas hit 4/gallon, people were punching holes in gas tanks, and draining them. one of my friends runs a napa....they got 3 of his trucks.

I'm desperately trying to find an inexpensive diesel Jetta wagon for work.

sad but true with me too. I have a 16 gallon tank in my Subaru Impreza, but still none the less, $3.87 is rape. I remember a year ago it was around $3.00......

no offense, good luck. unless you strike lucky like CAP did, anything good on fuel that will last forever if maintained will cost you an arm and a leg.
