gas hits record high in tampa bay
Back in 2005, we were bitching about the price of gas reaching $3 per gallon. Fast forward, and we’re happy to find gas for under $3.50 per gallon.
It’s making a serious impact on households, and people are looking for all sorts of ways to save money in other areas, such as eating out. Lots of are people are buying hybrids. People are so freaked out, they are even starting to use HARTline’s meager offerings.
To help out our neighbors, we have gone over to GasBuddy.com to find Tampa Bay’s lowest gas prices. As of this morning, the Citgo at 6318 W Linebaugh Ave & Henderson Rd offers the cheapest gas around.
A link to Tampa Bay gas prices has been put in the “features” section of the sidebar, so you can get there in a single click! How awesome is that?

With gas prices steep as a Rocky Mountain slope, fuel-efficiency is a prime consideration for an ever increasing number of car buyers. For all you smart souls with an eye on the pump, I’ve compiled a list of the top 3 Honda’s most fuel-efficient cars currently sold in the U.S. These three models are also rated by the DEP in the top 10 out of all manufacturers.
Rankings are based on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) miles-per-gallon ratings for city and highway travel.
Honda Insight — 60/66
Honda Civic Hybrid — 49/51
Honda Civic — 30/40

I really hate the stations that in fine print have “cash or [brand] credit card”. Pfft.

the site mentioned here does not note if prices are ethanol or gasoline. The E10 stations will give you several percent less in fuel economy, usually at the same price as neighboring stations.

If we nationalized the oil industry and then exported a small amount of refined petroleum we could join OPEC. This is where we need to start — the government should control the price not a bunch of people playing the ‘futures’ market. It would be so much cheaper and stable if we were to do that. NO ONE should profit from petroleum. Also — we need to exploit the shale oil reserves we have in the rockies. So many options, but so little time….I wish the VP office would get their nose out of the Department of Energy and stop with this nonsense regarding the strategic oil reserve.
