Gas prices where from 89 cents to $1.29 a gallon in the Nothern Virginia/DC area. Now they are between $3.99 to $4.40 http://www.talvindemachio.com/Talrocka.jpg

My gosh has time really gone by this fast? I started this thread all the way back in 2001. Well in Alexandria I paid 3.18 for reg unleaded. And just to think I was complaining about 1.38 back then. I would give a leg just to have those prices back again. T

Holy crud! This thread is still alive that I created back in 2001. Amazing how times have changed. Where my dad lives about 20 miles south of me he is paying 2.82 a gallon I am paying about 1.95 here in Alexandria

RE: Gas Prices in Your area, Let's hear about it >How much is your father paying for gas now? I don't own a >car but I see the prices at the pumps in NYC and they're >pretty steep. I think it would be cheaper to have a two hour >session with you than to fill up a van...and I know I would >rather get pumped by you than by Exxon!!! Well gas prices here in the DC area vary greatly. DC is about 1.90 a Gallon. Maryland is 1.80 a Gallon and Northern Virginia is 1.70 to 1.75 a gallon. My dad who lives 18 miles south of me is paying 1.66 a gallon. I really feel sorry for the airlines. I can't even imagine what it would be like to fill up one airplane. When I flew back from Spain the other day I was like...I wonder how much it cost them to fill this baby up. Temple, Georgia has the cheapest gas in the country right now and they stand at 1.29 a gallon. Whew!!! What a difference!

Wow thanks guys for your input. And I never thought about real estate costs ect. You poor guys out West are getting ripped off. For me I just go to the nearest gas station down by my apartment here in Alexandria, VA. But I just cannot believe the price differences out west. And the taxes they impose. There should be some kind of limit. If any one else has comments lets hear about them I hope all of you are doing well. Talvin http://www.talvindemachio.com

This can be quite interesting... I have brought up this topic before. And I find it quite amazing how gas prices can vary from just a few miles. I live in Alexandria, VA where the gas prices for Regular is 1.28 a gallon. But where my Dad lives just 12 miles South of me it is $.89 cents a gallon for Reg unleaded. Now in Washington DC just 3 miles North of me it is still $1.43 a gallon. And I know the poor people in San Francisco are still paying close to the 2 dollar mark for gas. That is totaly insane. What in the hell are the Gas companies doing? x( What are you paying in your area. I am just curious. Talvin http://www.talvindemachio.com
