    Up here in the Nor Cal there's a few places like that. It's lame, I agree.

    no worries, it's a great site. You can filter by gas stations or by grade, it's pretty handy, just look at it before you leave.

    WTF is up?

    People like to think that it's determined by the oil companies, and that they charge us the prices they do just because they can. . . in relation to demand.

    But thats not the case. It's the damn scarcity of it, and the fact that we're so dependent on foreign oil.

    Do you realize that it's taken millions and billions of years to actually create all this crude oil, and we've used up nearly all of it in a fraction of that time. . . . . less then a blink of an eye comparing to the time it takes to create it.

    Then we have the IDIOTS, only in America, that invest in Flex fuels and E85 BULLSHIT. . . who's factories that create E85 pollute like f**k.

    by the way. . . Shell, Sunoco, and 76 are the ONLY places I'd pump gas.

    if anyone lives in or around Glendale never fill up at the mobil station at the corner of Verdugo and Mountain St. ahead of the church the guy charges exactly $0.20 more than every gas station and people still buy!

    x2 on 76.

    Chevron also.


    Btw, Chevron and 76 have some pretty competitive prices. Most Chevron and 76 are way cheaper than Shell, 7-11 and that stupid AM/PM Arco crap.

    Re: WTF is up with the gas price

    I usually only use Shell and sometimes 76. I would rather run out of gas than use Arco. I miss the days when it costed 20-25 bucks to fill up the tank (only about 4 years ago), cause now its 60 for me to fill up my tank. :/

    I usually fill up with Chevron gas, if there isn't one around and I really need gas, I'll use 76 or Shell.

    I used to work in a refinery and I hate to break it to you, but its the same gas that says Chevron on it. The only difference are the additives, but the gas itself comes from the same tanks that the big boys.
