Weird thing going on in my small town….
We got 4 stations…
Fred Meyer
76
Shell
Chevron
They are all typically within 10-20 cents, and have been since Ive been buying gas here 20+ years.
Chevron always the most expensive, Fred Meyer the cheapest…(crappy gas)

So last weekend sometime, 76 decides to lower their prices……..a lot. They are now .50-60 cents per gallon less than the other three.
They run out of gas constantly…

All stations still charging over $5/gal………………..stoooooopid!

I don’t even pay attention anymore for the personal vehicles, hit the gas station and pump till it clicks…. now the big truck I’ll try and save the company money when I can.

Also if you haven’t download the Phillips 66 app automatic 10c off a gallon to a certain amount and Mobil app you earn points and can redeem them to take a few dollars off after a certain amount and plus is your card is linked to the app and don’t have to worry about skimmers

Ditto. I really like my e-bike. It gets me around town where I need to go 98.2% of the time and I can prolly get from point A to point B faster than a car. Bikes don't really have to abide by street rules. Technically they do but no cop is gonna write you up for going the wrong way on a one way street, or blowing through a stop sign/light while on a bike (safely looking both ways), cutting corners through a parking lot and stuff.

Our little town put in bike lanes this past summer. They got a grant to redo & repave most of the town streets a couple years back and part of the grant included putting in "official" bike lanes.

With that said, winter is coming so my bike riding will be limited to what Mother Nature throws us.

Remotely burned coal or direct? e.g. grid rechargeable battery electric car or coal-heated steam?

I saw on the news this morning that gas prices on the left coast, especially in Cali keep heading the wrong way.
Gotta pay up for that special California Green Dreaming blend before they outlaw gasoline forever I guess.

Here in central MA about...

$3.50/gal for regular grade gas.
$4.90/gal diesel.
$4.75/gal for heating oil.

It's gonna be a long, cold and expensive winter for folks around here to heat their house.
