Looks like I sold the big block 4 speed Road Runner just in time.Here in Central Illinois $4.30-$4.75 for regular gas.Good thing I have a slant 6 Duster now...LOL I may have to leave the 6 and put in a overdrive 4 speed.

Dang. That's rough. I hope it aint contagious.
 
Same in Indy, and they say its because our refinery is broken or needing repairs but in southern ky and northern Tennessee it's in the low 3's it doesn't make sense to me
 
Paying a $1.39 a liter here, REGULAR,, thats about $5.60.. ish.. a Gal..

Our gas never went down after oil came back under $100 a barrel

This just put a tear in my eye. Sorry for your lost.:cry:
 
$4 a gal here in Washington state. I was surprised that it was about the same in Indiana back in April when I was visiting family.
 
A week ago Friday paid 3.43 a gallon for 87 octane, 2 days later the same station 3.99 a gallon as well as all the other stations north to Indy.

Got back to southern Indiana 3.49-3.58 a gallon everywhere
 
$3.55 for 87 here in Maine today. Was over $4 a few weeks ago. Part of the reason I dont drive my cars on a daily basis as much. Limit my gas guzzling to Fridays and on the weekends. That is hard enough on the wallet.
 
used to it. 4 doll hairs a gallon here in kaliforn-I-A. I still drive the piss outa my 4 speed cuda. oh well, ...aint dick squat we can do about it.
 
4.25 here, been that way for a couple weeks!! Doesn't really bother my fun car driving, that's the cost of doing business!! My daily however??... That's another story!!
 
I don't like it at all...actually I think its total BS (a whole dollar less a gallon where my parents live near Nashville)...but at the same time if $10/tank is going to make owning one of these cars unaffordable...you were already there. Even at 4.50/gal, I usually only burn about $400 worth of gas a season. The insurance is about that much.
 
$5.76 a gallon here (1.28 a litre) what I wouldn't do for 3.66 a gallon (or 0.81 a litre!)

Hell I think I used that much so far this season, and it was rainy up until recent

Regardless of mileage, I DRIVE my Dart locally. Went into Spokane the other day to look at the ill-fated Bullitt wheels. I don't even know what it gets fer sure, 15? on highway. "The way I drive," LOL, is NOT optimal

('cept comin' home today from Post Falls, behind a County Mounty. Had to uh, "behave.")
 
Drove my Dart a 2 hour round trip on the highway today. Got 19+ driving about 60. Lots of smiles per mile. Seems to be happier since I recurved the distributor. tmm
 
Hovering around $4 in Milwaukee. This isn't the main reason, but one of the reasons I've decided to leave my 72 a /6, so I can actually drive it a LOT instead of just as a treat on Sundays.
 

Drove the dart today to a car show this morning and a cruise in tonight.

Had to buy some fuel, 3.69 for 93 premium and found a place to get 110 octane to make it happy, $7.39 a gallon, good thing it only needs a little with the 93 to make it happy.

Should be good to go for another few weeks of fun driving with close to full tank right now.
