Phil, the only thing I hate more than the gas prices in California are those awful pumps. Their vapor recovery {nozzle} equipment probably works but it is such a PITA to use. Every trip to California entails fueling up at the Arizona border and only buying enough gas in California to get back to Arizona.
It is even worse trying to fuel my motorcycle. I have to reach into the nozzle and pull the shroud back to even get fuel to flow...arrrg! As far as getting my E-350 full it takes extra time in California compared to Arizona but both allow for a full 55-gallon fill with very little topping off.
I religiously track my mileage as doing so keeps me dialed in as to how my V-10 is performing {andI'm retired and have nothing better to do}. Between my Scan Gauge and the odometer I always know exactly how many gallons I have at any given moment.
Regular right down the street is currently $2.78 {and has been for a while now}.
