In the western suburbs of Chicago I am paying an average of $1.64. Add 0.10 - 0.25 to that in the City of Chicago. The City of Chicago and Cook County taxes can kill you.outahere said:

Here in Orange county (southern California) regular is around $2.05 a gallon. What prices are you seeing?
$1.65 for 87 Octane here. Little cheaper for ethanol at 89 octane (Nebraska, the state flower is corn).outahere said:If regular grade gas was selling for $2.75 a gallon at the time you were considering purchasing a Titan, would you still have purchased the Titan?

Can you say "the current administration"?Farmer Fred said:You mean we invaded Iraq and gas prices went up? What the hell is wrong with this picture?
Great site rrumaner...thanks for sharing!rrumaner said:
When you tow, or put a big load in the bed, FWD is a disadvantage (reduced traction). VW used to sell a little FWD pickup years ago.Colorado said:Now, let me pose a question to the forum...one that I've always wondered about: Why doesn't someone make a front-wheel drive pickup? I understand that 4x4 sales may plummet, but wouldn't the resultant FWD sales offset that? Using myself as an example, the only reason I buy 4WD is for the snow. I'm not an off-roader, but I do live in the country and I like to drive in the mountains. But a FWD vehicle would take care of those issues just fine. What are your thoughts?
That makes sense, outahere...I never considered that before. Now you know why I just drive 'em and don't design 'em.outahere said:When you tow, or put a big load in the bed, FWD is a disadvantage (reduced traction). VW used to sell a little FWD pickup years ago.
Sounds like those of us in California are paying a lot more for gas than those in the rest of the country! And it will only get worse for the next 6 months.
Californians seem to be getting hit like that. Didn't I read that your electric costs went up like 3,000 % a little while back?

If, as many predict, gas is close to $3 a gallon this fall, G. Bush will most certainly be voted out of office. The federal energy policies in this country have been pathetic for the last 20 years, if not longer.Farmer Fred said:$1.69 here in Knoxville, TN.
The Titan is for hauling and trips, and I'll just buck up and pay through the nose.

Ouch! Maybe you should fill up across the border, in Tijuana!DaveS said:At lunch I filled up the non-titan in my household (Lexus LS400) at $2.63 per gallon of premium. The same Chevron has 87 octant for $2.43. I think we here in San Diego are generally the worst in the country. Costco had gas lines over the weekend 15 cars deep.
its all a conspiracy, they know its a big time for full-size trucks, they gonna milk us for every dollar.robertc said:The gas prices here in the San Diego area are already getting out of control
near $2.20/ gal. at many stations and on the rise. It really hurts the wallet now. This is the first V8 I've owned in many years. My timing could have been better but at least I have a fun vechicle to waste gas in.
You would think Bush would be able to get a discount on Iraqi gas. Lol!!!!
Is there really a shortage this time or is it just time to gouge us again?
This one is for the oil company's
