$3.03 to $3.29 here in the Daytona Beach area.

Won't slow us down, we'll just have to cut back on other things that we do when we camp.

Well you can feel relieved a little to know reg gas here is $1.02 per litre, and there are (sob) 4 litres in a US gallon. And that's with a Canadian $ worth $1.05 US.

The off price places here have it at 2.759 and the brand names are anywhere from 2.799 to 2.899. My guess is we will be over 3.00 by Thanksgiving if not sooner. Love those poor oil companies.

In Montgomery gas went up 20 cents this week. It's now $2.88 a gallon regular. I guess it's not that bad from what I'm seeing here.
Still when it takes $65 to fill our truck it's hard to think about other parts of the country.

Where are you in Canada, as here in Ontario gas is 1.20 per litre and diesel is as high as $1.27 This is enough to make me cry.

Current prices in central VA are $3.45 - $3.50 for regular UL. Add .10 per gallon for midgrade and another .10 for premium.

Diesel is running about 4.10.

Not the oil company's responsibilty for their big profits though. They said so.

How about $3.70 for regular and $4.50 (no joke or typo $4.50) for diesel in Western New York.

Just came back from Suffolk Virginia area and saw $3.10 for regular and $3.60 for diesel.
