Exxon/Mobil made $25 BILLION dollars in profits last year, so why invest your money where they are not making squat? Buy Exxon stocks, because if you can't beat'em - Join em.

I use the Indian Reservation, NOCO or Sunoco, but the best gas prices near Buffalo is at the Kiss Car Wash - usually as low as at the Indian Reservation where everything is cheaper, especially the smokes.

Here's a great place to see who hawking the cheapest gas in YOUR town!

My 02 Cav has always done well with 87. Not looking forward to feeding the SS/SC 93.

I usually go to 7-11/Citgo around here in Florida (I do miss Sheetz, though). Usually one of the cheaper brands, and haven't ever come across any bad gas from there (except from the chilly dogs). 92 octane or higher for my '98 Grand Prix GTP and the cheapest 87 octane I can find for my Chevy work van.

I use mobil mostly. If I am on the road I pick whatevers around.
Just got 23 mpg this weekend with my 4.3 S10. It's almost a record.

Always use 87 since thats what the manual says.

Used to fill up at Phillips 66. always was 10-15 cents cheaper then everywhere else in town. but they went out of business.

since then i fill up at speedway, unless mobil or bp is cheaper at the moment (doesn't happen very often but sometimes it does.)

don't even have half of the gas stations that are listed around here (south central WI).

I use BP...in Cali ARCO is BP so some of those "others" may actually be BP since ARCO is pretty big out here and it wasn't listed.

I have never had any problems with the gas in any of my cars:

'71 Chevelle w/454
'00 Durango
'93 325iS
'01 Grand Am GT
'05 Cobalts LS

I chose BP. As is has bee explained to me(and I'll admit, I don't know a whole lot about it) the larger the company the cleaner the gas. This being said, BP is the largest petrol co I know of and if it's true, BP would be the cleanest gas.

Cheap gas = problems in the long term. No other way about it.

My personal opinion is that gas should be regulated and this 35-45 cents a gallon markup should disappear.

Good idea for a poll btw.

gas

I go where ever I'm closest to. Usually Marathon since it is right up the street. I'll go to Sunoco for 94 octane in my turbo 300zx.

Free gas is good gas

I'm not picky about gas actually. Which ever I happen to be next to when I see that I need some.
