That is simply because the current 'incompetency crew' in Washington is depleting our strategic petroleum reserves, now at a 41 year low. A ploy to garner votes, nothing more.

Once the mid terms are past, bet the farm on Gas prices going up again. :wink:

To Servo's point about Russia. Let's not be too critical of his statement.

Here is why... Russia is supplying oil to China. A large amount of the products used in the US comes from China (a huge mistake), therefore the price of those consumer good are in a sense being driven higher, due to transportation/shipping cost.

So, what Servo stated, is in fact true, to an extent. Although that doesn't excuse the pitiful governance emanating out of Washington. ;)

I paid 4.12 for mid grade gas, I don't use regular gas ... which is about 3.99 here.

We have two grades here, regular & super, and we buy it by the litre.

1 US gallon = 3.7854 Litres
1 GB £ = US $ 1.06874

Mike's $4.12/USgal would the equivalent of paying £1.16/litre here in the UK.

It peaked at about £2.02 per litre, it's now about £1.70 but that's still well above this time last year.

£1.70/litre is the current price of our regular grade, that's the equivalent of paying $6.02 / US gallon.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

The Russian effect is much more direct here particularly on natural gas prices. Germany and to a lesser extent France and other EU countries got a lot of their gas from Russia. That has been turned off because of Ukraine.

Very true.

Of course, I worry about issues here in the states. But I also worry about our European friends,...especially with winter approaching. The ability to heat their homes, or lack thereof, is going to get dicey, really fast.

Unfortunately, 'whomever' is currently running our country, has all but rendered us helpless, in assisting. Damn sad situation, all around.

:(

Yeah, Taxes and green levies probably make up much of the difference. :(

In Maine Mike is paying $0.30 / gallon state tax and $0.184 / gallon federal tax,
igentax.com

Gasoline State Excise Tax Rates for 2025

State excise tax rates for gasoline, diesel, aviation fuel, and jet fuel. Plus, find the highest and lowest rates by state.
igentax.com igentax.com

That's $0.484/gallon, or 12% of the $3.99 price for regular.
With fuel duty and VAT 49% of the price we pay is tax.

So the price (in $/USgal) of regular before tax is $3.506 for Mike and $3.070 for us.

    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to mechanical deterioration this PC has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.
