Hope it wasn't a shock, it was all over the news for the last month telling of rising rates. In south Florida they're predicting close to $5 for regular by summer! Seems to happen every year as people begin to take their Spring or Summer vacation.

$4.80 a gallon in San Diego this morning, well at least for me when I pulled in. Lots of worries about Iran & them cutting off a couple of countries is driving up market prices on crude.

It's an election year. This happens every time.

Many things in play this time around. No pipeline, no energy policy, unrest in the middle east and a administration that is not friendly to oil in any way. This may be the biggest reason prices are up.

Not so much, just the amount I guess. I use the GasBuddy app and noticed it had just soared within the last hour prior to the thread.

I'm getting 17 mpg here on Maui. Gas is running $4.71. But average annual miles runs around 6K per year so compared to others overall cost for fuel is about 1/4 of normal drivers in the mainland.

Yes they did and will continue to do so, but nothing to do with policies or politics, just profits...
