I went to Orlando for Disney World once and there was one Shell gas station in the vicinity of the hotel I was staying at and it was charging almost $6 per gallon.

I looked it up. The MSDS says it's 10-30% ethanol. Lame. I'd pay that much for 100 octane ethanol-free.

Not right now because gas prices are low but when I bought my car 91 was running about $6 and 93 was close to $7. Even now 91 cost around $4.50
