Gas/diesel fuel is a cash cow and a political football. Here in Ohio, 87 octane (pisswater) is around $2.30 to $2.50 a gallon. Our politicians talk conservation and better gas mileage vehicles now that it's happened the our whining about lost tax revenue and talking about a milage tax, higher tax.
Within 25 miles of me is Pennsylvania and they have around 50 cents more per gallon tax. Pa.residents near Ohio buy their gas in Ohio.
