My friend was told today that no one in Georgia has premium. Not true but it is really hard to find. I was told lilburn has gas often.

they need to raise the prices a bit. ppl will only buy wut they need and not a drop more. Then when the supply is back to where it should be prices should drop..

I got premium today at a gas station in the middle of nowhere, around midnight after we left the track. :yes:

for real...I've missed class and have been stuck at my house because I haven't seen a drop of premium anywhere from memorial drive all the way to lilburn/lawrenceville/snellville
if anybody finds premium around the l'ville area hit me up because I need it bad

Gas in N.J is $3.35 a gallon, and in Fla. Orlando area is $3.60 a gallon. I paid $3.99@ Kroger today which had all three grades.

everyone needs to stop taking all the premium gas and putting it in cars that take regular, if you can find premium im sure you could find regular.
20 minutes north of canton on 75... they have all kinds of gas and NO SHORTAGE at all...

^^^^^^^^^^^^:no: :no: :no: :no: thats messed up. wowzzers
i seem to not have a problem with finding gas. there aer plenty of pumps that are out, but i haven't worried about it. in fact, i always just pull up to an empty pump with no one waiting.

Heyy.....Rome is bad, if not worse than ATL. Its farther away from the supply so it takes even longer! People are like following gas trucks into places here and forming a mile long line b/f the truck ever starts to fill up the tanks!! Its insane!! As for premium....its out of the question!! Good thing I have a backup car, but something tells me if I pull up at a meet in a crown vic that people might start thinking I am a lil ghetto! haha

They did. Atlanta right now has the highest fuel prices in the nation right now. My sister said the gas in Cleveland, Oh is $3.30 for regular. Because of extremely high demand, they jack the prices up.

I need 93 its the only thing my car will run properly on I get Pre detonation on 87 well thats what you get when you have a true JDM engine but these people who don't need 93 need to stop its ridiculous.
If you don't have a turbo or compression over 9.5 to 1 you don't need 93!
