Well, 2 gallons will get me 50 miles down the road...

It's unfortunate that I need about 51 gallons of gas to get me to where I REALLY want to be right now.

Where in Southern Cal is it only $2.87? I need to go there. I'm out here in Beaumont and it's $3.40 for regular. I feel like walking to work or riding a bike.

2.55 to 2.59 for regular...as for supreme, most cars don't need it...read your owners manual.
also, supposedly newer motor oil is better, you can go 5-8k miles between changes nowadays...

i buy gas close to my work because it's about a dime cheaper than where i live.

still...paid $3.19 for 87 on monday.

california is always higher because it's a differnt formulation that the other 49 states. i still want to know where it's 2.87.

3.40 sucks. still, in about a month there is no way you walk or bike anywhere in beaumont.

It seems that Shell gas is always higher than 76 or Chevron. If you don't buy your gas next to a freeway...then you should be able to get it cheaper! That reminds me that there is a website connected to a TV station that lists the top 25 cheapest in L.A. area...that might help!

This isn't ALWAYS 100% accurate, but it gives you an idea:
