$2.29 for 87, $2.69 for 91

I live in the land of cheap gas, and E-free is readily available. Just got back from Ohio and gas prices weren't even close. $2.15 for diesel here, $2.49 or more everywhere else.

Now this is funny and strange were at $2.00 for 87 today and its all coming for you?

IIRC, the price of oil is down so gas prices should be coming down more. I just called to check and the prices I posted earlier are correct. Also, 89 is $2.39

That's right. What's going on? The price per barrel is about $50. Years ago that would be way below $2.00 a gal is it the ethanol driving up the price

The 3 largest dirt farms in my county received 1.2 million combined in govt fuel payments.
Its information that is available online if you know where to look..............

Well lets see where any farmer got his/her fuel paid for.


........... Im sure you have been allocated funds for "crop expansion."...............

Now lets really see some proof. You have made a statement that I have received money for crop expansion so let's see the proof.

........Thats why all these tree lines are being removed left and right around here.

So are you trying to say the government is paying to remove tree line?????????????

Didnt say you received any money. Maybe yer attorney isnt worth a hoot.

You dont disagree bout ethanol costing more to produce than what is gotten out of it in the end.

I aint pullin up chit!

Government involvement mandating stricter emissions standards requires more refinement. Some states also require percentages of "renewable" fuels which can also drive up the price. Solar and wind farms are being built because of this forced demand for renewable energy also, not economics.

That has us beat. We are at $2.55 for no ethanol and $2.19 for 10% ethanol. My 2-cycle engines don't seem to mind 10%, but I hope that percentage stays the same. The politicians are trying to double it to 20%. I guess they either never heard of a 2-cycle engine or don't care.

We have a station here that put in more pumps that were higher in ethanol but I do not remember if it was E15 or E20. We still are able to get standard 87 ethanol free though from many stations. We also have stations that sell off road diesel at the pump which is nice. What is sometimes hard is finding no-biodiesel.

E10 87 octane selling for 2.25 while 94 octane ethanol free is 2.79 SW twin cities.
Looks like the same situation as Nebraska. The boys upstairs want all of us to buy ethanol and they want more grain alcohol in the mixture.

We want ordinary gasoline but nobody wants to sell it. This is insanity.

Well yeah creating more demand for a product to raise the price so you can get paid more why not. And the you can say you care about the environment. Of they only knew how much water was wasted lol.

Remember also that the more ethanol that is made, the higher the cost of food for livestock and the higher the food prices in general. It all averages out.

I live in the beef state and I like beef. Seven days without beef makes one weak.

In Minnesota there might be a law for the stations only to be able to offer non-oxyginated gasoline after they carry all other grades of gas.
