I'll take bets that we never see $2. gas again and if we do , most of us won't have two cents to rub together. Fritz

Today the lowest is at Costco (where else?) at $4.239/gal; the highest at Chevron at $4.399/gal. Yipes! I remember when I thought I was being ripped off at $0.699/gal. Gimme back those days!!! ________________________________ List-Post: texascavers@texascavers.com Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 16:33:53 -0500 From: j...@oztotl.com To: texascavers@texascavers.com Subject: Re: [Texascavers] ICS gas prices The Chevron in Comfort Texas near the site of next year's ICS has gas for a whopping $3.83, by far the cheapest I have seen in this neck of the woods!

At the present time, it appears gas prices are cheapest in Gulport, Mississippi, at around $ 3.85 Also, on the east side of Baton Rouge and it suburbs along the I-12 route have gas prices in the $ 3.89 range, and the same for Baytown ( east of Houston ). If you don't fill up at those places, you can plan on paying $ 4 or more for gas in Florida. You might consider carrying a 5 gallon jug of gas and filling it up in Gulfport, just so you don't have to buy gas at some place that is $ 4.17. That just might save you $ 1.60 on the trip. Or you could tow a trailer full of gas to the convention and sell enough gasoline to make a profit to pay for your trip to the convention. What is the most extra gas you have ever carried on a road trip? Five 5-gallon jugs? David Locklear
