No offense to you Cali guys (any state that will thumb their nose at the feds and lets folks get high is okay in my book), but y'all voted these tree-hugging morons into office . . . they pass laws mandating 'clean gas' (a joke in itself) . . . and now that gas prices are through the roof, y'all are the highest in the nation.

I feel for you, as the average person would never have seen this coming!

I am in cali. SO its about $2.57 for 91 ..... i hope everyone who quoted the 87 octane have carb bikes. I drive about 120 miles a day. Anywhere between 2.5 gallons and 3.2 gallons depending if I am splitting traffic for miles and miles at around 7 to 8k rmps.

The plus is i get commuter lane, legal lane splitting (passed a cop in traffic today) and free tolls (2 bucks a day) .. you do the math.

Its 106 miles to Chicago. We have a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, its dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

Hey, psycho, we're not getting back together. Now get out of my Van Halen t-shirt before you jinx the band and they break up.

I'm a friend of George Bush and I'm not ashamed to say it, not just because he gives me all the free gas I want. I think he's a swell guy..really.

Prices have done a little bit. Take 5 cents off each total. Its not alot, but it does help you drive a vehicle that has a 20 gallon tank.
