I had 18 miles left in the tank this afternoon. Filled her up and the gas station took $71.50 of my money from the bank. At $4.15/gallon for Premium, this has increased my weekly gas budget by $20.

Sucks, but it's hot as hell here in Texas. Summer just started, but we've been having 90+ degree weather since May.

Lucky you $4.15/gallon dam that is real good I just pump @ $4.69/gallon today in Socal.

I just filled up - with Diesel, admittedly. Cost me EUR86 (US$133) for 60 litres (15.8 US gallons), and still thanking my lucky stars that I parted ways with my 525i (which would have cost even more to fill up) and am getting 33mpg (US)!

When I look at the cost of filling my tank getting higher and higher I'm just glad I'm not back home in England with this thing!

I've been getting just under 19 MPG

And i filled up at one of the supermarket stations who have the cheapest fuel around here!!!
