NEW 2022 gas prices

Oil 57.13 barrel @ 9:42 EST. Local Exxon still 3:14 gallon for gas. Bet high 2.70's 4 miles a way.

Edit: Nope, 2.80 appears to be lowest. Most mid 2.80 to 3 bucks.
 
Not sure why I'm waiting for price to drop. Rarely use more than a tank a month. Have 220ish miles on current tank and low fuel light just came on. think about 3 gallons left?
 
Knightdale BP on adjoining lot of Waffle House, $3.05. Less than 3 miles further on same road toward Raleigh (New Bern Ave) $2.76. Still 3.14 half mile away from home at Exxon.

Up here in panhandle, it has went back up a little. Was getting diesel at 3.05, now back to 3.30. Regular at 2.80 a gallon. I'm keeping my eyes on the straight of Hormuz, lots of oil comes down thru there, especially with what's going on over there now.
 
When was out little while ago noticed $2.99 at Sheets one mile away. Don't understand how can be 50 cents gallon cheaper 5 miles away. Greed. That's all it can be.

I don't blame a station for selling at a price the traffic is apparently willing to bear. What I don't understand is who wouldn't drive 5 miles to save 50 cents a gallon? Sure, I wouldn't drive for six or eight cents, but 16%? $8 savings on a 16-gallon tank? Even the worst milage Hummer will only cost $2.00, and it has a tank a lot bigger than 16 gallons.

I put this solely on the consumers.

I agree 100% on the distance. I don't go out of my way to get gas. Stop at cheap station when in that area. If get into the low fuel light deal I'll buy 5 bucks down the street where $2.99. Rarely use more than tank a month unless I drive to Goochland or somewhere like that.
