    Back on topic... midgrade at my fave store has gone down to $5.89 -- which, on Maui, with no refining and few storage facilities of its own (well, not for civilians) is huge, $0.20 down. For now :rolleyes:

    Maui Oil, which caters to mostly fleet businesses like tours and bus routes, has reg at $4.89 -- about $0.60 more than pre-Trump Operation What Epstein Files. Midgrade however, is only $0.35 more at this fleet store, which is on par with the $0.40 more for my any-schlub store.

    Fuel in esp neighbor islands, is always going to be grossly more expensive than typical flyover states prices, esp since the fuel has to travel by ship all the way from the Middle East and/or Texas. Can just imagine the mayhem if we happened to get our fuel solely thru the Straitjacket of Whore Moves -- people would be smashing up Priuses out of pure spite :rolleyes:
