$4 700 for two cars. Mainly due to a 16 yr old driver. It's probably over 6k now I have the EV6 as a 3rd car.

Don't you love teenage drivers.

Prices have been going up and down almost daily for the last few weeks. It had gone down to $3.70, but now up to $4.07 at BJ's, using their credit card. They're about 20-30c cheaper than the next cheapest.

Friends are out in LA for a curling event and the station near the rink was almost $7 a gallon for the cheap stuff.

Wish we were younger again. Our semi annual premium is $2K for the two vehicles....2021 Venue and a 2016 F150. But hubby's 81 and I'm in my lower 70's. No accidents or tickets for either of us.

I'm writing from LA and ARCO and Costco is $6 per gal for regular. Just returned from Upstate NY and it was about $4.50. Curiously diesel is the nearly the same in CA and NY. $6 in NY and $6.40 in LA

​​​​​​Th ere are stations which are outliers and your friend seems to be near one.

Here in Oregon it's around $5.30 for the cheap stuff and just over $6 for diesel. I'm still paying 17c/kWh for the EV, that's about to go up 4%.

At the most expensive (full service) local gas station it was $5.35 today. Didn’t see the price at the places that are usually more reasonable.

It's gone up a good 50 cents / gal in the Bay Area this past week or so; you could shop around and find it for $5.50 if you were lucky, but now even Costco are $5.95 and everyone else is over $6, with some at $6.99

Wow ... I was bemoaning the fact that it has reached $4.49 down here yesterday. Fortunately, I don't drive much these. Have had my sub-SUV since January 2021 and have only 3,700 miles on it.
