$4.00+ around Chicago but that is to be expected. When it dribbles over to us in the next state it make us unhappy.

Gas in Northern Colorado is anywhere between $3.43 to $3.75 and that could
be just around the corner from each other.

A$7.27 for a US gallon in Gawler South Australia at the moment.
That makes $363.50 to fill the GMC if bone dry.

$4.17-$4.29 in Thousand Oaks, depending on which brand you select. There is a Chevron station at a freeway ramp that is $4.69. That price will vary depending on the day of the week.

I hate buying gas at Walmart, BUT. With their Discover Card one is getting 15 cents a gallon off. They hope you wont pay up at end of the month I suppose. So, I grabbed one last week at the Help Counter. They approve you right there. 3.06 per gallon Friday evening.

You should be aware that all "Murphy's Gas Stations" are not related to Wal-Mart. Even if they are located within the general vicinity of a Wal-Mart.
Hint: The Murphy Gas in Vicksburg is not tired to Wal-Mart, so Wal-Mart discounts do not count. Much to my dismay.

Tom, is there a way we can tell, as we travel? Maybe online? I rarely fill the GMC at Murphy's because their islands are not RV friendly, when pulling a toad. Would hate to wiggle into one and find out no discount.
Where are you moving when you leave Vicksburg? Bet Robin will miss you.

It's about 3.70 in downstate NY. About 30 cents more right around the city. Right across the border in NJ it drops to 3.30. It's almost worth the 40 mi round trip for me to go to NJ. Usually don't in the GMC, but do in my cars.

The SAM's in Midwest City, OK (east of OKC, just off I-40) has plenty of room for a GMC plus towd. The two double sided islands at the north end would be best for the combo.
