Hey Bavarian...

If you're so upset with us complaining about gas $$$ and how you'd wish you can pay what we're paying...then move over here.

Sorry for the rant - I just laugh everytime someone complains about us complaining from a rate that many people around the world would gladly wish to pay.

Paid $3.11 at Costco yesterday (just happened to pass by, never tried it before). Traffic was SO bad yesterday, we were literally sitting in traffic with the AC on in the X3. I reset the MPG counter to see how bad it could get in stop-and-go (more of the former). Wow, 8.1mpg by the time we passed that intersection.........

Prices are going down though! Now if I could just find a gas station that DOESN'T serve 10% ethanol gas.

Yeah...since schools are about to start (I guess teachers are back to work) traffic has been HELL this week! I averaged 450 miles per tank all summer. This past week, I was on empty at 360 miles

School DID start in PG County and a few other counties in MD this past week!

Montgomery Co. starts next Monday . Thanks to 10000 holidays during the school year, they've consistently started before Labor Day to get the required school days in. Fairfax Co never has this issue........oh and back on topic, gas is cheaper there too as long as you don't fill up in Tysons.
