Is 95 octane regular over there? Here in New Jersey regular is typically 87 or 89. That's going for about $3.29 right now.

its 355 a gal here and thats to much.it cost me about 120 every 2 weeks to drive the 17 mile one way trip to work 5 days a week. dosent help i have a truck

The first time I remember gas prices, we were on vacation in MO, and my dad was complaining because he paid 1.21 a gallon, when if he'd just got it one city sooner he could have paid 98 cents per. I honestly don't pay attention whatsoever to gas prices. I have to have gas....Whatever the price is, I'll pay it until they find a way to sell an electric 3/4 ton truck for less than 10 thousand dollars.

As for whether the price fluctuates with elections, I also don't know. I've been around long enough to see a few presidents come and go, but the only thing I remember about the last election was that Obama won. I admire you all for having so much memory available to you. I'm not even sure if I ate yesterday, let alone the price of gas 4 years ago.

Yup, 95 is regular here.

Over here you can buy 95 (regular) or 98 (super).
I was told you can get 100 in Germany.

100 is used here for private aircraft.

9.18 per gallon here in Norway, over 10 on the expensive days
