$3.35 last fill-up
NEW 2026 gas prices
- Thread starter BobbyFord
- Start date
C'mon, that's outrageous. I just wrapped up a road trip through six eastern states and nowhere was there more than a ten-cent markup for using credit cards!
65 bucks to fill up this morning. Fortunately rarely use more than one tank a month.
I didn't know the Mojave desert was on the east coast.
Up an average of 7 cents.
My ridiculous point was that it's bad enough CA drivers are getting screwed on the gas prices without the credit card companies gouging them too.I didn't know the Mojave desert was on the east coast.
My point was this was in the middle of the mojave desert without another gas station for 100 miles.
This is about the cheapest around here…
Imagine if they spent money on a pipeline into California instead of on a train that will never be completed.
And you thought a railroad was expensive lol.
Only $230b

I HIGHLY recommend following Mr. Global on wherever you get Reels from. He's an actual expert, he's rarely ever wrong, and gives great insight about oil markets and how it affect us.
He's independent too. He doesn't like Democrats obviously, most oil people don't, but he also spells out every day why Donald Trump is the worst thing to ever happen to the American oil and gas industry.
Gas prices are going to remain sky high for a very long time.

One of the things Mr. Global notes, which I talked about downstairs, is that the actual real price of oil that people pay is in the $120-$150 ballpark and continuing to go up.
Oil goes to the highest bidder. U.S. based oil companies have no obligation to sell to the U.S. only and they don't.
Be thankful you guys aren’t living under the California nuttery.
California minimum wage is around 17 to 20 bucks depending on what you do an hour. Oklahoma is 7.25 statewide. It's all relative.
Lies. Minimum wage here will not afford you a studio apartment.
You need to make $70k-$80k/mo to afford a studio apartment here.
Minimum wage won't here either. Working people everywhere are hurting is the point. Doesn't matter what the state/area gas prices are. It's all relative.
Also, California has been running a special blend of fuel specifically meant for the state since the 80s. Its the reason why its priced the way it is. Needed a way to combat smog of Los Angeles and San Francisco, so California came up with a cleaner burning solution to reduce it.
No other state runs it, but residents need to breathe so I get it. Is it expensive, yes it is. It's for a reason though and not just because.
Because air in California stays in California?
