Actually, our gas is $1.75 as of this morning, and that's within the DC Metro area.  You just need to move to the right states.  Smiley

As far as California, they don't "care" about the environment.  They were ordered to decrease emmissions by anyway possible.  This is where all the various gas mixtures came from as well as special car-engine designs.  What the nation should do is do a sweeping legislative change requiring all states to be buring California grade gas and the auto makers need to meet the higher standards.  Then, you would see your gas and auto prices begin to fall, since there will be less funds spent on producing specialized fuels or engines.

You do realize the President of the United States doesn't set gas prices, right?

I don't mind high gas prices. I drive a Toyota Echo, so I'm unfazed. I fill my tank maybe every three weeks. Besides, high gas prices spur alternative energy research, which is never a bad thing.

Yeah. You can get biodiesel for $2.

Twenty years from now we'll probably all be on something else.

I agree with Avelaval.  Thanks to Bush's hydrogen economy bill and high gas prices, my fuel cell stocks have been returning some nice gains this year.  Smiley

Don't know what the statewide average is, but in Metro Phoenix, were under $2.00/ gal.  I just filled up for $1.82.

Where in the metro area is gas at $1.75?  My corner station is at $1.82.

I saw a $1.99 the other day.  Quite a surprise.  Last time I filled up was $2.05.
