Uggh, I wished I'd had know that was a link to FOX NEWS.  I don't want to give them any page hits if I can help it. 

 

 

 

lol

 

They rub me the wrong way too.

 

Cut out the political BS, I don't bash MSNBC as much as I hate that news as much as u hate Foxnews...the crap goes both ways if u so wish.

 

Discuss the content. Its an AP underlying content.

Thanks for the links, I added it to the Post#1.

 

The mods will be watching this to make sure this is not turned into a political mud slinging match. Like I said, discuss the content (AP/gasbuddy), not the messenger and keep it cool  :)

My cost on Fuelly is 7.2 cents per mile, which is about what I've calculated by hand and that is at 50.2 mpg overall.  As much as I'd love to be in Cali the gas prices here in Jersey are much better.  (still not great, but...)

 

Edit:  For comparison, my Corolla was costing me almost double that, 13.8 cents per mile, before I got my C-Max.

Snit, since NJ doesn't allow you to pump your own, have you experienced any problems with the gas pump jockeys not being familiar with the capless fuel system?

 

I asked the pump jockey about that the first time I filled up in Oregon (which has the same stupid rule) and she said a number other cars have something similar, so it's not exotic.
