The morning paper says that Abilene has the highest average gas prices in the state of Texas. [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_bicker.gif[/img] [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_mad.gif[/img]

What are you having to pay up there? Down here in Austin I'm paying around $1.70-$1.80 for 87 octane.

We're paying anywhere from $1.59-$1.69 a gallon for the cheap stuff in my neck of the woods. The average is about $1.65 which is actually lower than diesel fuel for the first time in months. I REALLY pity the owner-operators trying to make a buck hauling freight with the high diesel prices....[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img]

91 is running 2.07, unleaded was 1.93 last time I bought some. At the cheap stations. Add .05~.10 if you buy it in town or at most of the highly stations. The little Shell in Merkel, the Flying J (also Shell) and the Conoco on I-20 are the cheapest here.
