    Professionals? Do they have to take a test to get licensed, or is a degree required? :eek:

    I was wondering that, too. Can I ask for references before I let them fill my tank?

    $3.66/gal for regular. I saw that diesel is over $4/gallon now. Gas is up a few cents over last week.

    I never did understand why you couldnt pump your own gas in New Jersey. The price of the gas was the same as everywhere else when I was in NJ, which i found weird. If people all over the world pump their own gas, what would make lawmakers in NJ forbid people to pump their own gas?? Any Jersey folks here??

    This week it went up about as fast as I have seen it. Prices around here are anything from $3.31 to $3.45 today. A week ago nothing was over $3.29.

    I paid $3.499 today in Redwater, Texas. For a grand total $80.00. I think I have my husband convinced that we need to get a Prius FAST! I have been laying the groundwork for a long time now. He said that when we get one we would keep my vehicle and just park it for now. Please send some Prius vibes his way to hurry him along.
    Waiting In Texas,

    I think I paid $3.83 at Chevron Friday evening. The cheapest stations in Sac are $3.70 or 3.71.

    A woman driving a MB E320 stopped me today outside Target. She wanted to know if my car used regular gas. (I think that she might have thought it needed to be plugged in as well). Yep, just regular gas.

    And it gets about 45 mpg? Actually about 48 - 50 mpg. Wow, that's great. :)

    Here in Austin - paid $3.269 per at Wallly World with the card. I question the quality of the gas though. Before the fill up I was averaging 57.8 mpg - after the fill up mpg dropped to 38!!! Plan to fill up some where else next week and see what that does. :mad:
