BTW, the LAST STRAW in my decision to drive was Portage taking $2.xx dollars
a gallon of autogas and pricing it at $4.00 a gallon for The Show. That is
just plain ripoff.
Mogas is stuck at $3.20 per gallon here in Iowa, supposedly due to a
"Midwestern oil refinery breakdown"...
What's got me suspicious is that the price is the same -- to the penny
-- in my home-state, neighboring Wisconsin. Since they have a MUCH
higher gas tax, it would appear that Iowa gas stations (or the
distributors, or both) are making an absolute killing on us.
Yesterday "my" gas station (where I buy all of our mogas) ran a 13-
cent-per-gallon discount on Friday the 13th. I bought 60 gallons
worth...
