California must be having refinement issues, or blaming the switch to winter fuel.

Just looked I was right (on their claim on why its going up.)
"
Treanor said the increasing prices in California are because some oil refineries on the West Coast are going through routine maintenance. That means there is less gas available. “California gets their oil from oil refineries off the West Coast.Sep 12, 2024"

Brand names up at least .30 gal and cheap stations up .40-.50/gal

July
Safeway - 3.85
Costco - 3.85
Chevron - 4.99
Shell - 4.99

Now:
Safeway - 4.34
Costco - 4.29
Chevron - 5.29
Shell - 5.29

At least it's "planned" maintenance that explains currently tight supplies. In the past, emergency maintenance would occur coincidentally with high prices.

Switching to the winter blend hasn't happened yet, and that usually reduces prices somewhat. California can't import any summer blend gas, but that's possible for the winter blend. (I have no idea how much gasoline is actually imported, probably not much.)

My wife and I had a date today and took the train to Union Station in Los Angeles. This station was right near there. I had to take a picture because I could not believe it. I have no idea why it is so high.

Wow that's about $2/litre if I'm calculating that right. Or $2.78 CAD if I factor exchange rate. I have seen it go up to low $2 mark but it didn't stay.

Ha! I know exactly which gas station this is. I also don't know how any sane person actually visits this gas station, but I suspect their customers might be lawyers and other high income professions that get to travel and/or log everything as a business expense, so they personally don't care if they are filling up the rental car with >$7/gal gas.

It's pretty much $2.80-2.85 at a lot of gas stations around here for credit, $2.75 for cash

Will be going to Costco and see what it is there, probably $2.70
