Default Gas today-can you beat this?

Gas is down to $1.65 here in Oklahoma, what is everyone else seeing across the Country?
NOTE: I don't run corn gas in my Model A or my '57 Chevy, only in my modern cars.

$2.25-$2.49 today where I am.Nothing I own seems to care what I put in it for gas.I thought a Yamaha 1700 I have might care,but it says 87 octane minimum.I tried it and it still runs the same as the high test.My neighbor rigged up this elaborate setup to remove the alcohol.His chain saws,lawnmower,weed whackers,acted up with the rehabbed gas.That's when he found out removing the alcohol brings the octane down to 77-78.We all had a good laugh about that.(him included)The places the internet says around here that carry alcohol free gas don't seem to know anything about it.

I think I paid $2.65 the other day here in Connecticut. That is with corn crud. It is next to impossible to find corn free gas in our state.

$2.89.9 at Costco in Garden Grove absolutely cheapest in the area.

Absolutely NO gas without ethanol in California except possibly at an airport. Good luck with that.

$0.59 for LPG per litre for the last tank.
I gather we are set to become the biggest LNG exporters, not much oil here.

I remember in the mid 50s getting gas at a Wareco station in Silvis, Ill, for 19 cents a gallon. Gas "wars" were pretty common among local stations in those days.

Wareco, Wow, that name brings back memory's of my first real job at 16 years old.


I was a pump jocky who would approach a customer at the pump ask if I could fill up the tank then start cleaning windshield then check the oil (with out asking) then proceed to check tire-pressure. all for a big salary of $.75 per hour. that was good money for a kid in 1963, in Springfield, Illinois.

Ocean Co NJ was $2.17 last week and the Truck stop in Jutland , NJ, along I-78 was $ 2.19 new year's day. Here in Pa, it's down to $ 2.43. These are not average prices. These are the lowest prices I could find.

At our local grocery chain (Brookshires) gas was $1.92 per gallon last week. With the discount points we got for buying their groceries I was able to fill up the truck (23 gallons) at $1.02 per gallon. Beat that.

According to the inflation calculator...

...$1.65 gas today is about the same as 19 cent gas in 1960.

I do hope you Americans appreciate the price you pay for gas ie gasoline.
In Australia I am paying 1.60c per litre and 3.9 litres equals 1 US gallon. That is $6.24 AUD per gallon which is 4.36 USD per gallon. The exchange rate is $0.70 AUD to $1 USD.

I can remember when I was a kid my dad complained bitterly when the price of standard grade fuel went from 5 pence to 7 pence an imperial gallon. We had only standard grade as there were no high performance engines in those days requiring premium grade.
The motor car in the picture was same as our family car and the pictures of tractors are Farmall A and McCormack W4. All burn petrol.


Our motor car didn't look as flash as this one neither did our Farmall A but our W4 did have some paint.
Pictures from the internet.

The price of Petrol

I can also remember in much later years we had all diesel burning tractors. Dad went to an auction and bought home an old John Deere 2 cylinder petrol burning tractor. Not a very useful tractor. I do remember tying a piece of bailing twine to the governor and pulling it the speed was nearly supersonic. So fast it was infact dangerous especially with the crop wheels in front.

Well I asked Dad why he bought such an old tractor he explained that our family car was the only vehicle that burned petrol and how would he explain where all the petrol went in the event of a visit from the tax and excise man. Good thinking Dad.


My parentshad raised us kids to always be honest. Dad further explained when dealing with the government it’s very okay to lie.
Years later when I was caught lying to the customs man I did tell him I had no conscience about lying to the government. I pointed out to him that they lied to me every day. After a few moments of consideration he did come out with a broad smile.

1 AUD equals 0.7 USD. That equates to 4.36 USD per gallon.
The reason gas prices are low in America is due to several factors:
1. There is actully more oil then we could ever use
2. We've know about the “abiogenic” theory of hydrocarbon generation for years (but don't tell the general public)
and most importantly
3. See pics

$3.49 here in rural Nevada. That's bad enough, but add that to the long distances we need to travel to "get anywhere"......it's a real drag.

Pure Gas - IOS/IPhone is a good app for finding gas.stations (nearby) who sell gasoline that contains no ethanol. I don’t know whether there is also an Android version of this same app.
