Bottomheadman is full of sheet. The state sets the fuel tax in NC, not local government entities

Each county has different tax amounts on gas. That's why another county maybe cheaper or higher than our county. I've always heard that Wilkes gas tax is always the highest in the north west corner of the state.

gas 269 in elkin

they are hurting their self . we just buy small amounts in Wilkes

Wilkes has always sucked on has prices. It's a shame I work in Winston and has is cheaper there than in parts of wilkes

So how does the election have anything to do with gas prices? I'm on pins and needles waiting to hear this one

If you shop at lowers foods you have a chance to get your gas cheaper. I have right now .50 cents off which if I bought it today at Hess then it would be around 2.50 a gal. So that would be one tank you would or could save on.

Every time I read these gas threads I just shake my head. Gas here is so cheap. People visit and always remark about the low price. Hardly worth a riot in the streets, maybe do a gratitude dance.

I was in Statesville over the weekend and filled up were it was a little under three bucks. I was at a station off of I77.

they are all thieves still over 3 dollars on 18 just go to elkin

they have to take the money from the Lottery Idiots,,,,, customers buying Gas is not important

I don't like them because it takes them too long to take your money. You have to wait in line like forever because they just only got one person working behind the register

If it is all the same then why do they advertise that their gas has xyz additive? I know were you are talking about but that does not mean it's all the exact same. Each company has different blends and additives or they would be sued for advertising they add xyz when they don't.

It's horrible gas...my jeep will not run on that stuff...dang near ruined my jeep

There has to be some reason their fuel does not get the same millage. I check it every time I fill up.

shagbag Murphy's get's their fuel from the same tank farm everyone else does. Wilco, Shell, Marathon all get deliveries from the same Greensboro facility.

I did not think this was something new. The oil companies always lower fuel prices around election time regardless of which political party the election if projected to favor. I have always figured they lowered their price per gallon in hopes the oil industry does not become a hot topic.

I do not buy Murphy's fuel because my old 90 model GMC does not run good off of it. They must have exactly 10% ethanol instead of up to 10%. It is usually cheaper but I loose a mile or two per gallon and with a full tank with twenty gallons that adds up. I also have a first gen Ranger and it's the same thing. My dad drives new model vehicles and he does not have any issues with fuel mileage.
