Regular unleaded $2.15, super unleaded $2.62...what gives?? - RKA 2015-08-13 19:52:43 (195 views)
- You can thank your Shell/Exxon etc refinery for that - Goldie 2015-08-15 20:48:42 (182 views)
  - Which makes no sense to the 87 and 93 ratio. - Silver Streakin' 2015-08-17 21:55:26 (128 views)
    - Refineries and retailers are figuring out... - RKA 2015-08-18 09:45:47 (157 views)
      - Actually, price of premium is elastic as much as regular; both are set daily by refineries  -  Goldie  2015-08-18 10:22:44 (165 views)
        
        Yes, but to Jeff's point we're talking about the spread between 93 and 87.  -  RKA  2015-08-18 10:56:09 (136 views)
        
        Agreed. 93 buyers are being taken.   -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-18 21:01:51 (119 views)
        
        So, it's proven that there is elasticity in the pricing ;)  -  Goldie  2015-08-18 11:32:24 (131 views)
        
        The retailers are complicit.  -  RKA  2015-08-18 14:06:35 (149 views)
        
        Yes  -  Goldie  2015-08-18 14:35:51 (138 views)
        
        No, because those aren't the ratios that I see in my area of PA namely for 93.   -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-18 21:04:47 (146 views)
        
        Maybe you should get a vehicle that runs on 87?!?  -  Goldie  2015-08-19 08:06:38 (132 views)
        
        If someone made a fun, euro car with 300+ hp/tq than ran on 87... I'd consider it.  -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-19 08:55:46 (142 views)
        
        Here's the bright side...  -  RKA  2015-08-19 13:31:10 (148 views)
        
        Good point! And I paid 2.93 yesterday for Exxon 93. No drop this week.   -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-23 08:34:03 (109 views)
        
        Why limit yourself to 300 HP/TQ  -  Goldie  2015-08-19 09:57:35 (150 views)
        
        I didn't, hence the + ;)  -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-23 08:42:05 (143 views)
        
        I am not very good at math, so stay with me on this example  -  Goldie  2015-08-24 08:11:51 (117 views)
        
        Maff is hard.  -  Silver Streakin'  2015-08-24 15:09:13 (108 views)
        
        That explains, yes, I drove the newer ones...  -  Goldie  2015-08-24 15:23:00 (105 views)
        
        Factor in the upfront cost of $5K as he stated.  -  RKA  2015-08-24 11:58:45 (104 views)
        
        I missed the upfront costs  -  Goldie  2015-08-24 12:43:28 (127 views)
        
        "You want some Mobil 1 with that price increase sir?" :P   -  RKA  2015-08-18 21:34:33 (122 views)
        
        Gas is cheaper in NJ for a few reasons:  -  Carson the Parts Guy  2015-08-18 10:30:29 (158 views)
        
        NJ refineries are dwindling; majority of (y)our gas comes from Louisiana.  -  Goldie  2015-08-18 11:24:42 (153 views)

      - Oh and that Shell down the street was still at $3.15 and reg was 2.59 - Silver Streakin' 2015-08-15 08:03:53 (133 views)
