Five dollars a gallon?! My area is over SEVEN dollars a gallon.
Germany here, around 9$/gallon. I'm just glad I made the switch five years ago, currently the etron is sipping leftover electrons from the roof. Compared to something equivalent with a 300hp TDI, im paying 30% of the fuel costs. And the etron is an ultra thirsty luxobarge, any reasonable ev with the same power would be more like 20%.
~$10.40/gal in the Nordics (diesel). So that's roughly $0.25 per mile in my case.
Ours is still hovering around 3.80
Do you live in the middle of nowhere oklahoma?
Nah san antonio texas actually
It depends on how close you are to the refineries and pipelines. What they're listing is the average which includes the highest price in the country and the lowest price in the country.
It really doesn't matter how close the refineries you are. Salt lake City has two refineries within the city limits and our prices are still higher than some of the rural areas that I travel to. It makes no sense and any explanation I've received is pretty much just idiotic in my opinion most of it they're saying that they produce the gas to sell to other places not just to here because they can get higher prices which again idiotic. But whatever it's all just a racket no matter what.
