Wow, it's $2.95 here in NW Washington. RUG is about $3.25. We just broke an all time high record. We have 2 refineries that are less than 40 miles away. We are getting %#$+ed.

I almost always count on cheaper fuel in New Jersy when motoring. Less state tax? Or another factor?

Ah if you wanna go into a hospital and come out sicker than when you went in - or even dead - then no, that is free.
As with everything that's free, too many users and abusers with not enough people paying into the pot. If you want quality you have to pay for it, and why not - fecking labour party have ruined this country. And to think i lived in South Boston for 8 years and came back to this

Yes, If enough complaints come in, it might change the price. I don't even know the exact price I paid last time.

Of course, I predict there will be someone to come along and "promise" they will change it ................... if we just let them raise taxes.

Refinery costs go up, we pay more, costs stabilize and we pay less. It's the same old cycle every year..........
