PressurePros 249 Report post Posted September 20, 2006 Filled all of my tanks this morning at $2.38. Hoo-rah. That sure beats the $3.15 I was paying six weeks ago. What are some of the average prices around the country you guys are paying? The season is slowly drawing to an end for us. Eight more PW'ing jobs booked and 2 call for estimates this week. It looks like I am going to be a little off for September but my YTD is up. I have to do a numbers analysis to see what is going on at the bottom line as I did have to increase marketing dollars a bit this past season. How is everyone doing when compared to previous years?

Big Bill 14 Report post Posted September 21, 2006 Alot of the difference in the price of gas through out the country is due to taxes we pay. Northeast states, California & other states are taxed higher. In Louisiana, we have a bunch of refineries (4-5 within 50 miles of me), yet we still pay more than alot of you guys in the midwest or elsewhere. The worst thing here is that fuel taxes are supposed to pay for roads, if you have ever driven in Louisiana, you would know that our roads absolutely suck.

PressurePros 249 Report post Posted September 29, 2006 What are your thoughts as to why gas prices are dropping so dramatically? Election time or other conspiracies or is there a sudden supply surplus that nobody knew about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not to try and steal the thread but you're right, the roads do suck badly! Here's a picture of my grandma's road in N.O. East before Katrina.... it speaks for itself...
