kathydavidb Posted January 1, 2015 Report Share Posted January 1, 2015 The best I've seen in Bull Head City, AZ. was $1.97 but it has been dropping at least once a week. Remember when food prices went up due to the high gas prices? Do you think food prices will drop soon? Dave. 2006 Coachmen Aurora 36ft. Class A motor home. 2009 Honda CRV toad.

Jim & Alice Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 I love Texas... great women there... But this afternoon I saw $1.73 at Plainfield and US-131 in Grand Rapids. LOL ! What is this world coming to when Michigan beats Texas in the price of a gallon of gas?

Mark and Dale Bruss Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 But I think Michigan is going to fix that with higher gas taxes.

LFDR3116 Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 You are in our old stomping grounds - we both grew up/lived from Cedar Springs to Rockford, Grand Rapids and Hudsonville. Have been seeing postings from friends on the prices. It is $1.77 somewhere around there. Michigan's gas is always more expensive. Don't know what's making the difference this time. Paying $1.99 at the MS gulfshore. Pat DeJong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockintom Posted January 2, 2015 Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 We got a little war going on here in Hemet, CA. One station went to .99 a gallon and his competition down the street dropped his to .93 a gallon. I was borrowing 20 and 30 gal tanks from my neighbors. I filled 5 today. Guess who running EVERYTHING on propane???!!!! rockin' On Edit: Guess I'm not reading too good this evening.....we may have cheap propane out here....but regular gas is about $2.59 at the station I listed above!.

Jim & Alice Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 But I think Michigan is going to fix that with higher gas taxes Yup - Constitutional Amendment ballot issue in May 2015... to raise State Sales Tax by 1%, from 6% to 7%... and to change existing Gas Tax (19 cents per gallon) to a percentage of sales... and to exempt gas & diesel from the State Sales Tax. The net effect would be to increase cost of a gallon of gas slightly. They gotta do something. 2007 Dolphin Safe-T-Plus Steering Bar Our Blog: Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
