I could probably even find some environmental group here that would support it. For your further amusement, I didn't bother to correct it.

Damn, I wouldn't think it'd be that low there.

This price was at two neighboring stations in Germantown, MD that always have good pricing. Further toward the city, or in the city itself, I suspect it's $.30-.40 higher.

Here in Bugtussell, we call your area Granola Country...home of the fruits and flakes.

BTW, $3.07 is what the local cartel has currently fixed the price at.

Why is it that in Memphis you can buy gas for 2.87, but further east in TN it holds value at 3.99 currently, updated within hours ago. Come on now... over a dollar difference in Tennessee? Jeeez!

Don't know what that tells you, but it tells me that there ain't nothin' in East Tennessee that's worth seein'.

It tells me we have to plan carefully and make the most use of a trip to the city.

Thing about living in the sticks is they know people are not going to make an 80 mile round trip to save a few bucks on a tank of gas. You waste to much of the difference trying to do so.
