    Yes, regular.

    wow, 3.73 regular??? I knew NYS had some gnarly gas taxes, but didn't think they were that high!

    In Jersey, I paid $3.33 for PREMIUM on Thursday... I think regular is around $3.10 a gallon...

    Up in Westchester, the Shell up here...$3.95!!! The Hess down the street, $3.71... And I got my license in the mail yesterday.

    Phil, I have a confederate flag in my truck, I know...make fun of the hick. But the shotgun rack fits quite nicely in the back.

    Actually, NJ has some of the lowest gas taxes in the nation. Whenever I head out to PA, I always try to plan it so I can fill up in NJ - Heading out, I get off Rt 80 at Rt 46 and top off, and coming home, I usually hit one of the gas stations on Rt 46 just before the GWB.

    I fill up at $3.30-$3.40 a gallon for premium and I think I'm getting raped, and I can't believe just a state over they are paying $.50 to $.70 more per gallon...

    I think NJ, MO and WY have some of the lowest gas taxes, IIRC....

    I used to be a frequent visitor to those gas tracker websites, usually just to kill time. It's crazy how much gas varies from state-to-state.

    But hey, at least we're not in Hawaii. When I was there in December, gas was something like $3.50 a gallon for regular unleaded - I don't even want to check what it's averaging these days... OK, I checked and the average in Hawaii is $3.92... crazyness!

    A couple of stations around West Palm Beach today we saw $3.65/gallon - I ducked a few stations and finally managed to get $3.53/gallon - and that is regular...I hate it when it's over $60 to fill a tank...

    We're "still" paying around $3.30 here in Maryland, and it's going up pretty quickly. My Jeep and I aren't too happy about that, but fortunately I only drive on weekends.

    Phil, your avatar is PRICELESS! :D

    Phil,

    Its about time you got out on the road and you were able to parallel park as well. :D

    HAHA. For those who don't know the story, years ago there were a few of us in a car one day and the driver was having a tough time parallel parking. I offered to get out and guide the car in. Eric, very quiet at this time, said to everyone "Why are we listening to Phil for parking guidance? He doesn't even have a liscense." It was hysterical.

    I am, however, a good parallel parker. :)

    Re: NOW Really Stay off the Roads!!

    I would like to proudly add that in the past two days, I've set off 4 car alarms....just by driving past them with my loud truck. :)

    In addition, some guy in a condo parking lot thought that I had taken his spot, and thought he woudl block me in. I used skill and talent to squirm out of a tiny gap her left without scratching his car (although I was tempted to just PUSH the thign out of the way with my truck). I learned that he later came out at 3am, seeing the empty spot, yelling out "How did he get out of there?! Where'd he go?!"

    Tommy has a photo of what he says is a poor parking job from me. I'll give him the opportunity to try to rip on me first before I give my rebuttal. :-p
