What are you guys paying for gas these days?
 
Just filled up here in central NJ $2.40 a gallon for Mobil 93 octane premium.

What are the rest of you guys paying, and has it affected your lifestyle or driving habits? I know for me it has put the potential purchase of an suv on hold.

Take care,

George

I drove by the Shell gas station today in the 560SEL and saw premium(93) was at 2.67/ gallon. :pukeface:

Still.. not bad enough.

$2.53 here for premium. Hasn't really bothered me yet as I only put on about 8 to 10 K a year.

Brian Carlton 07-12-2005 07:38 PM

$2.49 for regular.

It hurts when the van takes 28 gallons. :eek:

I've actually slowed it to 52-54 mph on the freeways now.

The $hitboxes can go f____ themselves. :pukeface:

I filled up today in Yorkshire England U.K and my W126 420SEL took £65.00 @85p per litre that will last about ten days of joyful motoring.

I wonder what a UK M-100 owner's annual fuel bill is? I bet 4k would be cheap! :eek:

filled up the turbo diesel in south jersey on friday at $2.31/gal (almost crashed when i saw the $2.09 sign but that was for off-road diesel!). didn't check the gas prices but i know they're 20 cents/gal less than in Pa.

12 Jul 2005 - $2.70/gal for premium at the cheap places in San Jose. S420 takes 26 gallons.

$2.60/gal for Diesel. No idea why Diesel costs more than regular ($2.50/gal)here.

I just payed $2.59/gal for diesel, this is in San Jose CA.

koop 07-12-2005 09:16 PM

2.45 Diesel

2.20 Regular

I'm feeling like a freaking genius getting an office in the neighborhood that I can walk to.

Well I moved from the 400E to the C36 twin turbo but it wasn't really motivated by gas prices just a fringe benefit. Actually with the 104 octane I'm probably worse off.

$2.24 diesel
$2.41 93 octane
$5.45 104 octane

I bought diesel at $1.99 last week. I think that gasoline stuff is around $2.25.
