GAS up $0.15 over night in KC!

tnymntna · 05-11-2007, 12:50 PM

I can't believe gas went up 15 cents over night here in Kansas City! It's now at $3.15 in the Kansas Side of the state line. I'm sure glad I purchased my prius last week! I only paid $24.87 to fill up this morning and I'm good for another +400 miles!

That's about what it is in Denver, though our most recent hike was only $0.06 to $3.16 (though I've seen a few $3.20's as well).

The OP is lucky he lives in area w/relatively low gas prices compared to Cali. http://www.fuelgaugereport.com/KSmetro.asp says the avg in Kansas City, KS is $3.042 vs. $3.497 for me in San Jose, CA.

Wow, we are still at $2.79 here. Wonder why you guys are so much more?

That's it?

We saw a 30 cent spike here yesterday between the morning commute and the afternoon.

Just this morning (May 12, 2007) I saw gas @ $2.77 per gallon in Pflugerville (outside of Austin, TX).

I paid $2.89 per gallon two days ago.

Well, in Sweden we pay just under 12 SEK / liter.
That is about 45 SEK / USG.
Witch with the currecy(?) of today gives about 6,45 $ / USG.
So the gasoline in the US is very cheap.

Except your prices have lots of taxes in them that pays for good roads and transportation systems.

I havent been to Canada or to US so I dont know the condition of your roads, but I can tell you that many roads in Sweden are very very bad. Many times I wonder where do the money go.
What finance your roads then ? dont you have tax on gas ? and a yearly roadtax on your car ?
(sorry for my bad english)
