Gas for $2.25 a gallon?!?!?!?!

Yes, it is true! Paid 2.25 in Laredo Tx. What is odd, is that 30 miles away, it was 2.69. How can this be? I would rather pay 4 bucks a gallon than live in Laredo though...

Go a little farther west to Belvidere or over to Sycamore or down to Sandwich and it's under 3 bucks.

Check the "gas temperature map" at gasbuddy.com.

It's $2.43 here.

Those poor guys with the Chrysler $2.99 deal, I would be pissed off. But who could have thought gas prices would drop so quickly?

I sure those Prius drivers who were full of smug when prices were close to $5.00 are worried that SUVs and trucks will start a comeback with low gas prices.
