Gas Prices Across the Map: What RVers Are Paying Right Now

[Wasillaguy]

I use Gas Buddy but it has it's warts. Just a couple days ago it showed a discount for a Valero station but when we got there the station was shut down.

L.A. probably on average $1.00 more since Epic Fury. Hoping Don's bones tell him it's time to wrap it up.

Yah, crowd-sourcing isn't foolproof. I too use Gas Buddy but have learned to be skeptical, for example, of multiple posts by the same person.

Still more than $1/gallon less than 2022 here in NJ

Just remember $4.06 per gallon in 2022. It was high because of the pandemic? When everyone stayed home?

Supply and demand.

Funny how that all worked out. Almost as if it were planned in advance. Hope nobody lost their shirt on EV, solar, and wind investments.

That was 2020/21...

Covid-19 was the third leading cause of death in the US in 2022 for the third year in a row.

The U.S. was ill prepared for COVID. And might still be if/when something else hits.

Headed to FL on 3/15 with diesel at $4.99 here in central NY - came back on 3/21 to $5.59.

We visited in December 21 and May 2022 and people weren't staying home then that we could see.

Covid-19 was the third leading cause of death in the US in 2022 for the third year in a row.

But then this would renew the discussion about death FROM Covid versus death WITH covid. Once the covid money started flowing there was the implication that the latter could be claimed as the former to enhance eligibility. Where there are freebies, fraud will follow.

Heard there's a new strain. So we should be able to address this question in real time.

Auburn and Reno is around five bucks per gallon. Eastern NV (such as Ely, NV) is less than four bucks, more than a buck cheaper than western NV.

I assume Reno gets its gasoline from CA., unlike eastern NV.

-Don- Auburn, CA

My son just got back and shared this:

 

[Lou Schneider]

$5.659 for regular and $6.499 for diesel in Oakhurst, CA near my sister's house. My RV is parked there for the duration and I'm using my 45 MPG Mirage for day trips and finding motels for overnighters. Even at $5 a gallon I can drive over 100k miles before the car + fuel approaches the price of an electric car. Starting the countdown at 13k miles so far.

 

[Joezeppy]

I regret not buying my daughter's 2015 Mirage when she traded it in a few years ago. I REEEEEEALLY would have been enjoying it now vs. driving my truck to work!

 

[garyb1st]

I remember paying $6,000 for my brand new 1978 VW Rabbit Diesel. After the oil embargo, when there were long lines at the gas station and the cost of fuel was quite high, I could have sold it for $12,000. Don't recall the price of gas at its highest but it eventually it came back to a more reasonable amount. Then so I would feel better, I would think of the Brits and Europeans who had been paying dearly for fuel for as long as I can remember.

Prices have been a steady $3.49 here in Louisiana for over a week now, so at least they have stopped going up
